Be it any festival, if you want to know what trend is going on in it, then you should reach Sadar Bazaar in Delhi. There you will see what is trending. This year too, before Diwali, the market of decorative items has become hot in Delhi. Not only in Delhi, decorative items are being sold in wholesale and retail in North India’s largest wholesale market, Sadar Bazaar. The shops are decorated. There is a crowd of customers.
Demand for local goods increased
Raideep Singh, who was selling decoration items in Sadar Bazaar, said that the demand for indigenous goods is increasing. Toran, Bandanwar, hanging lamps, water lamps, metal lamps are in great demand. Customers want variety, for which they are willing to spend any amount. All types of goods are available in Sadar Bazaar at affordable prices. In such a situation, the craze for Sadar has reached other cities including Delhi. Started selling decorative items from September. He says that this time we are ordering goods from cities like Rajkot, Ahmedabad, Surat, Mumbai. At the same time, colorful artificial flower strings, bandanwar, cloth garlands etc. are being made in Delhi itself. Every year there is some change in the design. There has been an increase in the inclination of people to buy traditional decorative items.
Now there is no crowd in the market
Raideep told that now there is no crowd in Sadar Bazaar. Delhi Police has removed the illegal street vendors. Recently, videos of the crowd here and the misbehavior with women had gone viral. The traders had expressed their displeasure. After this, the police took action and derailed the market. Now it is easier to walk.
Fringes even for Rs 12
Wholesaler Sachin Sharma says that this time Chinese lights are being sold in abundance in the market. In Sadar, skirts are available for Rs 12 to 800. The string of Rs 12 is 5 meters long, while the string of Rs 800 is up to 250 meters. All the lengths come in these. Rice bulb is used in threads worth up to Rs 20, which is also called hot bulb. Whereas in chains above Rs 25, LED lights and pixel bulbs are used. They have different shapes.
It is not possible to compete with China
Sachin says that at present it is not possible to compete with China in the matter of lighting. If a 15 meter thread is made in our country, it will not cost less than Rs 100. Whereas the best 15 meter thread from China is available for Rs 40. The campaign to boycott Chinese goods on Diwali does not affect the lights market. Everyone wants cheap and attractive goods. Finishing in indigenous electric items is also less.
