Amazon Great Indian Festival 2026 Early Deals Are Live, Here Is What Is Worth Buying
Amazon has opened the first phase of its biggest sale of the year. Early Deals went live on Amazon.in today with what the company calls the lowest prices of the year, and the main Amazon Great Indian Festival 2026 sale begins on October 8.
This is the phase most shoppers skip and then regret, because festive inventory on popular phones tends to move before October.

Amazon wants you to shop with AI this year
Rufus now takes prompts in English and Hinglish, so "Diwali gifting ke liye best Early Deals dikhao" works as a search. More usefully, it shows 30 to 90 day price history and sends alerts when an item hits your target price. That is the one tool that tells you whether a discount is real or a marked up MRP dressed down.
Lens AI finds products from a photo, and AI Review Highlights compress the review pile into something readable.
Delivery is faster this year
Amazon Now, the minutes delivery service, has expanded fourfold in under 10 weeks to over 65 cities and towns. Over one million products ship same day and four million next day. Behind that sit 20 new fulfilment centres, six sort centres and 150 last mile stations across 118 cities.
Buy now or wait for October 8
Buy now if it is a phone and the price already matches or beats last year’s festive low. Early Deals stock on popular models runs out.
Wait if you are buying a TV or a large appliance, where exchange bonuses and no cost EMI tenures usually improve once the main sale opens.
Either way, check price history in Rufus before you tap buy.
