Amazon Great Indian Festival 2026

Updated 15 Sep 2026

Not announced — Flipkart has confirmed 9 October for Big Billion Days, while Amazon-side hints say 27 September; Amazon has confirmed nothing (checked 15 September). Amazon has not announced a date. Flipkart has: Big Billion Days starts on 9 October, with early access on 8 October — and Amazon has opened the Great Indian Festival on the same day as Flipkart three years running, 8 October 2023, 27 September 2024 and 23 September 2025. Two hints from Amazon's side point earlier instead: an Amazon customer-service chat shared on Reddit on 8 September gave 27 September to 12 October, and Amazon's Rufus shopping assistant reportedly suggested 27 September to 23 October. Neither is an announcement, and both would mean Amazon going early this year. This page changes the day Amazon confirms. Until then the deals below are live Amazon prices, checked against the MRP Amazon itself lists.

Questions people ask

When is the Amazon Great Indian Festival 2026?

Amazon has not announced it. Flipkart has confirmed Big Billion Days for 9 October, and Amazon has matched Flipkart's start date to the day for three years. Against that, an Amazon support chat (shared on Reddit on 8 September) and Amazon's Rufus assistant (reported on 15 September) both suggested 27 September. Treat those as unconfirmed — a support agent or a chatbot is not an announcement. Prime members usually get in a day early. This page is updated when Amazon confirms.

When did the Great Indian Festival start in previous years?

On 23 September in 2025, 27 September in 2024 and 8 October in 2023 — each time on the same day as Flipkart's Big Billion Days, with Prime members getting access a day earlier.

Which bank offer will run during the festival sale?

Not announced either. Amazon names a card partner alongside the dates, and in recent years that has meant a 10% instant discount on one bank's cards with a per-transaction cap. The cap matters more than the headline percentage on a large basket, so check it before planning an order around the offer.

Is it worth waiting for the festival sale to buy?

For phones, televisions and large appliances, usually yes — those see the deepest cuts of the year and the exchange and no-cost-EMI terms improve too. For everyday items the difference is often small, and some listings are marked up beforehand so the sale price matches the ordinary one. Every deal here is checked against the real MRP for that reason.

What happens when a deal expires?

The page stays up and gets marked expired instead of being deleted. The buy button switches off and the listing shows what the price was, so you can tell an ended deal from a live one rather than landing on a broken link.
