I-Day boost: Discounts drive 8-10% sales growth; executives eye stronger festive season
Independence Day discounts gave India's retail sector a much-needed boost, with footfalls and sales rising by 8-10% year-on-year across key shopping destinations. Industry executives say the revival in entry-to-mid segment demand has raised hopes of a strong festive season ahead. Electronics, particularly in affordable categories, along with groceries and apparel have seen healthy growth. Restaurants, too, are reporting higher sales as malls draw more visitors, helped by new film releases and a surge in in-home dining orders. 'After several months, there is good demand for entry to mid-segment products,' Nilesh Gupta, director at electronic retail chain Vijay Sales told ET. 'Walk-ins are good and there is over 8% jump in sales value over last year, which is better than last year,' he added. Electronics makers and grocery retailers ran promotional offers around Independence Day eve, one of the biggest consumption periods outside the festive and Republic Day seasons. At Reliance Retail, sales grew in double digits, according to an executive. Haier India president Satish NS told ET that the electronics manufacturer's Independence Day sales were up more than 20% over last year, with 'most categories driving sales.' by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Luxury 3 & 4 BHKs with 25+ World-Class Amenities Evara Thane Buy Now Undo On the ecommerce front, Tata-owned BigBasket reported a 42% on-year jump in patriotic merchandise sales on Friday, alongside strong demand for electronics, including the new iPhone 16. Malls also recorded a surge in traffic during the long weekend. Theatres are seeing back-to-back housefull shows for the first time since the pandemic, powered by Rajinikanth's Coolie and Hrithik Roshan's War 2. 'The crowd that comes for the movie adds at least 10% of the revenue for fashion brands, food and beverages,' said Harsh V Bansal, cofounder of Unity Group, which operates more than six malls in Delhi and Punjab. 'The next few days also look good in terms of footfall and sales,' he added. International labels have also drawn shoppers, with discounts prompting customers to buy at lower price points. 'International brands have contributed to the growth with consumers using the lower price point during the sale to buy products,' said Muhammad Ali, chief executive, retail, at Prestige Group, which operates five malls in South India. Those malls have reported a 15% year-on-year rise in sales. 'One segment which has not done well is Indian women's wear, which is a cause of worry,' he told ET. Revival hopes Retailers and brands have been under pressure for nine to ten quarters as low-to-middle-income households grappled with high inflation and weak earnings growth. Higher spending on travel and tourism further dented retail demand. Executives, however, are forecasting a turnaround in the second half of the fiscal, supported by low inflation, soft loan rates, reduced income-tax slabs this year and good monsoon rains. 'While middle class discretionary spending was under pressure, some consumption has started and with the festival tail wind, the outlook is much better,' Anjan Chatterjee, managing director of Speciality Restaurants told ET. He said that Independence Day demand trends have been 'reassuring, with a 15-18% year-on-year growth.' The government on Friday also said GST rates will be rationalised by Diwali to boost consumption, improve affordability and make essential as well as aspirational goods more accessible to a wider base of consumers—moves expected to spur further demand.

Tata, Merck explore exclusive chemical deal for Dholera semiconductor facility
ETtech Tata Electronics is in discussions with German chemicals giant Merck for a potential exclusive long-term agreement, people aware of the developments told ET. The deal would see Merck become a primary supplier of specialty chemicals and materials essential for semiconductor manufacturing at Tata's upcoming Dholera facility. The Dholera fab, a 91,000 crore ($11 billion) project, is a joint venture with Powerchip Semiconductor Manufacturing Corp (PSMC) of Taiwan. It's a cornerstone of India's ambitious push to establish a domestic semiconductor ecosystem. As construction progresses and the plant gears up for production by 2026, securing a steady and reliable supply of ultra-pure chemicals is paramount. A potential partnership with Merck will help seal this gap, analysts said. 'Tata Electronics is in active negotiations with Merck,' said one of the persons. ' Tata is evaluating the offer and is yet to sign on the dotted line but securing a chemicals partner is very much on their agenda. It will boil down to whether they agree to the exclusivity.' Semiconductor manufacturing uses more than 150 chemicals and over 30 gases and minerals in the production processes. Analysts said this exclusive partnership would provide Tata Electronics with supply chain stability, a critical factor in the volatile global semiconductor market and will help Merck make a foray into India's burgeoning semiconductor industry.'We have been monitoring semiconductor manufacturing developments in India for the past couple of years,' a Merck spokesperson said. 'We believe that India is becoming an increasingly important partner in the global semiconductor ecosystem. However, at this time it is too early to talk about concrete plans for India. We continue to closely follow opportunities that align with our strategic goals.'Tata Electronics didn't respond to queries. Merck is a global leader in specialty chemicals and serves as a crucial ancillary supplier for both existing and future chipmakers, said Neil Shah, vice president of research at Counterpoint Research. It provides a comprehensive portfolio of high-purity materials, including chemicals, gases, and metrology and inspection solutions. 'These offerings support chipmakers throughout various stages of manufacturing, from deposition and etching to final quality control,' he explained. 'An exclusive agreement between Merck and Tata Electronics would create significant strategic advantages for both companies. For Tata Electronics, an exclusive partnership would ensure a consistent, prioritized, and uninterrupted supply of critical materials, mitigating supply chain risks. Having a special price lock-in often comes with exclusivity.' It will allow Tata Electronics to leverage Merck's extensive supplier experience and R&D capabilities. It could thus lead to the development of robust processes, improved manufacturing yields and an accelerated timeline for their chip production.'For Merck, partnering with Tata Electronics, a key player in India's emerging semiconductor landscape, would be a major strategic win,' Shah said. 'As India becomes a more important market for chip manufacturing, this partnership would provide Merck with significant scale and a strong foothold. This position would enable Merck to expand its operational base in India, invest in local R&D, and potentially benefit from government incentives.'Merck will require a robust ecosystem to establish a successful chemicals plant in Gujarat. This includes not only reliable infrastructure--electricity, water, security, logistics--but also a well-developed upstream supply chain with local partners in raw materials to packaging. Shah said this 'holistic ecosystem' is essential to support and sustain Merck's was the first to report in February that Merck was looking to set up a specialty chemicals facility in India. In May, Union minister for electronics and information technology Ashwini Vaishnaw highlighted that Merck, among other companies, was gearing up for the growth of India's semiconductor industry.
