Other religious things you might stock are Genda (Marigold flowers) and Rose flower petals, as well as idols of gods and goddesses revered during Diwali. 

Offer Traditional Clothing For The Festivities: 

If you are thinking of setting up an apparel shop, now is a good opportunity to set up your shop and switch up your inventory for more festive traditional attire that customers will wear throughout the festival season. Many people attend Diwali parties and family gatherings in the weeks preceding up to the holiday, in addition to celebrating on Diwali. As a result, now is an excellent time to carry things that your consumers are more likely to buy, such as traditional suits, saris, shoes, and jewelry for ladies, as well as traditional apparel and shoes for men. 

Offer Gifts For Sale: 

People open their hearts and wallets around Diwali, bringing presents to every occasion in addition to cleaning, decorating, and praying.

The things that go into the gift hampers are already items you sell, so all you'll need to invest in are baskets and gift-wrapping supplies, which you can get at a discount from a wholesale market. You may charge somewhat higher pricing to your clients since you'll be offering them with a value-added service such as gift wrapping and a curated gift selection and thereby increase your profit margins at a cheap cost. 

Offer Specially Prepared Diwali Dishes As Well As Traditional Snacks: 

You might start a temporary Diwali business catering to folks throwing Diwali gatherings and parties if you simply like cooking. Traditional Indian sweets and snacks to eat and present, substantial amounts of Indian cuisine, and desserts to finish the evening should all be on the menu.
