daily sales by offering a wide selection of merchandise to the greatest number of consumers.

stores thereby opening the floodgates of merchandise to consumers.

believed that this year’s GOSF will feature over 450 well-known brands offering hundreds of

deals. Also in the run-up to the retail extravaganza, Google will organize contests complete

with prizes worth lakhs of rupees.

discounts that are enough to capture the imagination of millions of people. So, don’t let
