Another vendor, who introduced himself as RK, who hails from Himachal Pradesh, emphasised the breadth of their supply chain and stock. He told ANI, "We get the stock from Ladakh, Himachal, Kashmir, and Ludhiana," RK stated that they sell sweaters for everyone, "from newborn babies to older people."
RK, who has been setting up his shop in the city for 20 years, mentioned that prices are highly competitive, ranging from ₹150 to ₹3,000 for premium items. The current sale status is described by him as "normal," but is expected to increase as the cold intensifies.
Some customers in Hyderabad, seeking winter clothes, shared their experiences with ANI while shopping in the city markets. A customer, Chandan Singh, praised the market, telling ANI, "The quality is good and the prices are nominal. They have new models and the collection is good."
