Here are listed the sectors that are offering a good deal. Not to forget, online biggies such as Amazon and Flipkart that are time and again this festive season are rolling out their discount offers across all categories.

1. Real estate: Other than the usual cash discounts, freebies this time around the real estate developers are also waiving GST charges on under-construction project.
