Over the years, several brands have taken to affiliate marketing to market their products using various avenues.

The Indian e-commerce industry is known for leveraging the increase in demand during the festival season by announcing seasonal sales, discounts and various offers for customers.

It indicates the extent to which festive season traffic has converted into sales on e-commerce platforms. The interesting trend being that cashback, social media links, email marketing, and coupon options accounted for the highest orders out of the lot. 

Admitad’s observations show that consumers have invested significantly in Digital and household equipment like Mobile Devices, Televisions, Home Audio Systems, Large Appliances etc., which witnessed the biggest hike in sales during the festival time. The sale amount under this category almost doubled,  recording INR 9.6 Crores as compared to little over INR 5 crore during  the week before Diwali.
