Jaipur's Dhanteras sales are projected at ₹8,000 crore, driven by Gen Z shoppers using AI tools to select products, leading to a surge in electric vehicle purchases.
Jaipur is expected to witness a staggering ₹8,000 crore in retail spending during the Dhanteras festival, according to recent market estimates. The surge is largely attributed to the growing influence of Generation‑Z consumers, who are increasingly turning to artificial‑intelligence‑powered platforms to help them choose electronics and other high‑value items.
Retail analysts note that AI‑assisted product recommendations have made it easier for young shoppers to compare features, prices and reviews in real time, boosting confidence in high‑tech purchases. This trend has translated into a noticeable uptick in the sale of electric vehicles (EVs) across the city.
Dealers report that EV units sold during the festival period have risen by double‑digit percentages compared to previous years, reflecting a broader shift toward sustainable mobility. The combination of tech‑savvy consumers and a favorable market environment is expected to sustain this momentum beyond the holiday season.
