Three days before Rakhi, Vijay Sales has opened its Raksha Bandhan store with up to 70% off — and for once the banner number is real, if you know which aisle it lives in. We priced the whole thing on August 25.
Raksha Bandhan lands on Friday, August 28 this year, which leaves exactly one ordering window before the "delivery by Thursday" cutoffs start vanishing pincode by pincode. Vijay Sales' festival storefront — the one behind the "What did you get me?" banner — gathers its rakhi-gift stock into one event page, and the discounts split into two clean tiers: accessories (smartwatches, earbuds, grooming kits) carrying the 45–75% cuts that justify the banner, and the big-ticket phones and tablets running 25–50% below MRP. Every price below was pulled from the live listing on August 25 and checked against its printed MRP.
Ordering for the festival? Rakhi is Friday, August 28; the tying muhurat runs roughly 5:57–9:48 am, so gifts need to arrive by Thursday the 27th. Check the pincode delivery estimate on the product page before paying — or switch to store pickup, which stays open till the last evening across 140+ branches.

The pattern is the same one we tracked through Vijay Sales' Back to School event: the headline percentage comes from fast-moving accessories where MRPs are soft — a Rs. 5,999 Noise watch at Rs. 1,499 is the banner's 75% — while phones and tablets, where MRPs mean something, top out near 50%. That is not a complaint. A Redmi A7 Pro at half its launch MRP or a Samsung Tab A11+ a third off are genuinely strong festival prices; just read the two tiers as different currencies. If the gift is a smartwatch or earbuds, almost any budget clears; if it is a phone, the Rs. 20,000–28,000 band (realme 16x, vivo T5 Lite) is where the sale concentrates its value.
Payment offers rotate through the week at Vijay Sales, and the stack matters more on the big tickets — the offers strip on each product page shows the live bank instant-discounts for your card at checkout. Codes that work sitewide are tracked on our Vijay Sales coupons page, re-verified daily by the deals desk.
Vijay Sales has not printed an end date on the campaign; Raksha Bandhan falls on Friday, August 28, 2026, and store festival events typically run through the festival weekend. For guaranteed pre-Rakhi delivery, order early in the week and check the delivery estimate on the product page for your pincode.
The banner's top figure lives in accessories — we verified Noise and Fastrack smartwatches at 72–75% off and Zebronics earbuds at 75% off on August 25. Phones and tablets top out lower (25–50%), which is normal: the headline number always comes from the accessory aisle.
August 28. The Purnima tithi begins on the morning of August 27 and ends at 9:48 am on August 28, and the rakhi-tying muhurat falls on the 28th (roughly 5:57–9:48 am IST) — so the 28th is the festival day, with delivery needed by the 27th to be safe.
Vijay Sales generally mirrors event pricing across its website and 140+ stores, but stock differs by branch — the website shows live availability for your pincode, and store pickup is the fastest route this close to the festival.
Sale prices apply without a code. Bank-card and payment offers rotate weekly — check the offers strip on each product page at checkout, and the live codes on our Vijay Sales coupons page, which the deals desk re-verifies daily.
