Overview
- The sale, which begins Friday, May 8 in India, gives Prime members a midnight head start before deals open more broadly later in the day.
- Amazon says discounts will reach up to 70% across fashion, electronics, home and beauty, with limited-time Lightning Deals expected to turn over quickly.
- HDFC Bank credit card and EMI payments will get up to 10% instant savings, and Prime members can get up to 3% extra off on more than two lakh products.
- Electronics and cooling gear lead the push, with teased offers on iPhones and Samsung flagships plus ACs, refrigerators and air coolers from brands like LG, Samsung, Haier, Bosch, Daikin and Voltas.
- High-demand items often sell out in the opening hours, and AC buyers can face installation backlogs, so building wishlists and checking bank, exchange and no‑cost EMI terms in advance can lock in better prices.
