The electronics market, which has been stagnant for six months, has been rejuvenated since Dussehra. Consumers are flocking to buy new electronic devices. The traders are now hoping to see a boom ahead of Diwali. Especially, television sets up to 3 lakh TVs are being sold in large numbers.

Sales of electronic devices increase during the festive season. However, this year, the market was closed for more than six months due to lockdown. Now after unlocking, traders have geared up for Diwali season. Television sets are specially in demand. TV seller Arun Jadhav said that till last year, there was a demand for TVs with 32-inch screens, but this year people are buying 40-inch, 43-inch and 55-inch TVs. There is also a demand for smart LED TVs with TVs with Android. Ten per cent of the customers buy TV up to 3 lakh with state-of-the-art technology like OLED, 4K, Ultra UK USD. Another trader, Pankaj Agarwal said that due to corona, many people have started using washing machines instead of maids for washing clothes. Hence demand for front load washing machines has increased. According to trader Ajay Shah, there is a high demand for washing machines and other kitchen appliances required for housework and cleaning machines. Many large appliances like washing machines, refrigerators, flour mills are being purchased. Customers have increased due to different offers and discounts. Other equipment including vacuum cleaners, dishwashers, fans and ACs are also being booked for Diwali.
