Shopsy by Flipkart—the Walmart-backed ecommerce firm’s value commerce vertical—saw a 2X surge in daily demand and new customers during the fourth edition of the Grand Shopsy Mela, it said on Wednesday.

Through the six-day sale, Shopsy offered more than 16 crore products with free delivery and witnessed increased demand from Tier II and Tier III markets such as Cuttack, Guwahati, Gorakhpur, and Mysuru.

Nearly 41% of new users were first-time shoppers, with over 60% of customers originating from Tier III cities and beyond. Top customers from Tier II+ cities shopped for choppers, kids' clothing, earbuds, and fashion wearables during the event.

While men largely shopped for T-shirts and shoes, and women's shopping centred around kurtis, sarees, and earrings. On the last day of the sale, Shopsy recorded the highest-ever traffic on its platform, it said in a statement.
