According to a survey by the Confederation of All India Traders (CAIT) released 22 October 2025, India’s total retail sales during the Diwali period reached approximately ₹6.05 lakh crore. Goods accounted for around ₹5.40 lakh crore while services contributed about ₹65,000 crore. The strong performance signals robust consumer sentiment ahead of the festivals, and analysts believe sectors such as retail, consumer durables and two-wheelers may benefit in the near term. Despite high base and elevated valuations, the data supports a positive demand narrative amid global uncertainties.
