$9.2 Bn worth of goods were sold online during the Festive Sales in 2021: RedSeer

Bengaluru: Recent figures released by homegrown consulting firm RedSeer indicate that 2021 saw India witness its biggest ever Festive Sales with brands clocking a GMV of $9.2 Bn through online channels over this period.

Incidentally, RedSeer came remarkably close in predicting this figure with its forecast of $9.6 Bn for this year’s GMV falling within just a ~5% range of the actual figure ($9.2 Bn).

As has been the case for the last five years or so, online Festive Sales in India continued to grow at a blistering pace and saw a 23% YoY growth in Gross Merchandise Value (GMV).

A slew of new launches and easy financing options meant that Mobiles continued to remain the most widely-sold product category during this time, accounting for more than a third of the total GMV.

With hoards of people finally getting to leave their homes after months of lockdown, the Fashion category witnessed a resurgence like never before. Driven by consumers’ desire to refresh their wardrobes and new innovative business models catering to shoppers in Tier 2 cities, the sales of Fashion items via online channels doubled this year.

On the other hand, the categories that witnessed subdued growth this year included the likes of Home furnishings, Home Décor, Furnishings and Other Electronics.

The overall online shopper base grew by ~25% compared to last year with 57% of the total shoppers coming from Tier 2+ cities. This meant that this year’s Festive Sales were dictated by affordability schemes.

While the overall online GMV and absolute number of shoppers both increased, the GMV per user declined from INR 6,570 to INR 6,490 as relatively less expensive items such as Fashion products saw an increase in their share of the overall GMV.

The Flipkart Group emerged as the leader during the festive sales with an impressive 62% market share.

Rising consumer demand certainly contributed to the growth of overall GMV during the online Festive Sales. However, eCommerce platforms also deserve credit for the steps they took to further boost this demand.
