Indian e-commerce giants Flipkart and Amazon are preparing for a strong festive season after three years of slowdown, as industry watchers project increased consumer activity. Both companies are reportedly expanding their warehouse and fulfillment capacities to accommodate the anticipated surge in demand during the festival shopping period. This buildup reflects optimism in the online marketplace sector, which is expected to benefit from a revival in consumer spending. The preparations come amid broader market updates and sector-specific roundups covering basic materials, auto and transport, energy and utilities, financial services, and technology sectors.
