Top 6  stocks for Wedding season in India

Wedding season is here and that means a lot of spending for Indian consumers. From jewellery to clothes, Indian weddings are lavishing when it comes to spending money. According to the merchant association commonly known as Vyapar mandal CAIT (Confederation of All India Traders), there will be around 35 lakh weddings this year estimated at nearly 4.5 lakh crore rupees. In India, people spend a lot on new cars, clothes, jewelry, and home renovation during weddings. This boosts the sales and profits of many companies in the December quarter.

Recently our prime minister Modi Ji also mentioned that weddings are a big source of income for the Indian economy. That’s why he has urged the people who are going abroad for weddings to do it in India instead. This way, the money will stay in India and the local businesses will benefit. 

Let's break it down in simpler terms. Imagine there are various weddings, both big and small. Some weddings cost less, like a few hundred thousand rupees each, while others are more expensive, reaching millions. Out of all these weddings, about 15% of the business comes from selling jewelry. The Bottom line is that a significant portion of the overall business is driven by jewellery sales.
