The Confederation of All India Traders (CAIT) report on Diwali 2025 highlights a record-breaking surge in India’s apparel industry sales during the festive season. Total trade touched ₹6.05 lakh crore, marking a 25% increase over 2024.
The rise was largely driven by reduced GST rates and the strong 'Vocal for Local' movement, with 87% of consumers preferring Indian-made products. Apparel and ready-made garments accounted for 7% of total sales, benefiting significantly from festive discounts and increased consumer confidence.
The report underscores the critical role of small traders and traditional retail in driving this robust growth, helping create millions of temporary jobs.
This festive boom reflects India's expanding domestic market and growing economic optimism.
