Consumers will get access to a million products across categories such as home, lifestyle, beauty, babycare and electronic accessories, among others, as part of the pre-book collection.
“Consumers will not just get a sneak peak into the ‘Big Billion Days’ offers but will also be able to plan their purchases in advance by paying just Re 1,” said Nandita Sinha, Vice President–Events, Engagement and Merchandising at Flipkart.

According to industry reports, the festive season shopping is going to witness huge demand from consumers with over 45-50 million shoppers coming online.
“With the pre-book store, sellers, artisans and weavers will be able to anticipate and fulfill what India wants to shop during the sale-event and give their consumers festive joy within the Big Billion Days event,” said Jagjeet Harode, Senior Director and Head – Marketplace, Flipkart.
