The most awaited fashion event in the country, Myntra’s End of Reason Sale (EORS) is set to go live on December 20. Shoppers can look forward to choosing from 9 lakh styles, presented by over 3000 brands while shopping in the biggest edition of the fashion bonanza to date. The 13th edition of EORS will be held from 20 to 24 December and is slated to cater to over 4 million unique customers during the course of the 5-day sale.
The biggest-ever edition of the mega fashion event is also set to witness a massive uptick in demand, at 4X over BAU and 1.5X over the last winter edition, with close 50% of the contribution coming from tier 2-3 markets.
The fashion major is also set to bring a smile to 40 million faces, as it brings the ‘biggest’ of everything – brands, collections, offers, and more. Myntra also expects 65% higher traffic to the platform during the event, compared to last year, owing to higher adoption of fashion through e-commerce and Myntra’s superlative value proposition.
What consumers can look forward to?
Consumers can pick their favourite fashion wear, accessories, beauty products, home decor and more at the best possible price points from brands such as W, Nike, Puma, Adidas, USPA, Levis, Marks & Spencer, Roadster, HRX, Mango, GAP, UCB, Tommy Hilfiger, Biba, Vero Moda, ONLY, AND, H& M, MAX, Pantaloons, Lifestyle, Mother Care, Smashbox and Glamglow, among others. Going by the trend of the previous years and given that the fashion event comes at the opportune time of the onset of winters, customers can refresh their winter wardrobes with the latest trends and styles available on Myntra. Myntra has also scaled-up the collection for Myntra Fashion Brands (MFB) across apparel, accessories and footwear. Some of the leading brands from MFB include Roadster, HRX, House Of Pataudi, Dressberry, Anouk, Sangria, Ether, Taavi and Kook N Keech, among others.

Avail early access for an early start to EORS
Myntra’s innovative shopping constructs like ‘price reveal’ and ‘early access’ scheduled between midnight December 18-19, will continue to offer the most engaged shoppers with an advantage to access the best of offers before everyone else. The Elite and Icon base of ‘Insiders’ (Members of Myntra’s Loyalty Program) will enjoy exclusive early access during this period while others seeking this option may do so by paying a fee of Rs. 99.
Whether it is the biggest catalog size, biggest brands, or the biggest value offers, EORS can easily claim the place of the country’s biggest fashion event. The present edition of the EORS is slated to be the biggest in terms of growth as well and has a set of incredible value offers to ensure the biggest savings for Myntra’s customers. Myntra has lined up multiple constructs and special offers for its customers. For instance, never before offers from the biggest brands, next buy rewards with every purchase, a flat Rs. 500 off on the first transaction and free delivery for one month for new customers will be available in addition to exclusive offers for Myntra insiders. The specially crafted ‘Shout & Earn’ program that allows shoppers to invite or refer friends to the event, can fetch extra discounts, up-to Rs 150, per friend who may just visit the EORS page on the platform and not necessarily make a purchase. Myntra has tied up with multiple banks for offers during EORS.
Shoppers can get 50-80% off on products, along with an additional 10% off on ICICI and Kotak Mahindra bank debit and credit cards. Additionally, in a one of its kind association with Gaana.com, all Myntra Insiders shopping during the EORS-13 will get a four month subscription of Gaana Plus absolutely free.
Key categories of this edition of EORS
Fashion Essentials, Winter Wear, Ethnic, Personal Care, Active Wear and Sports, to be major contributors to the overall event, with Fashion Essentials and Winter Wear being the largest. Some of these categories, including Ethnic wear, and Beauty and Personal Care were popular during the recently concluded Big Fashion Festival too and Myntra expects this momentum to continue during the upcoming EORS.
Some of the emerging categories which are expected to witness 2X growth are personal care, kids wear, women’s innerwear and watches, and wearables during the event.
Speaking about EORS, Amar Nagaram, CEO, Myntra, said, “One unique aspect of EORS that has always remained constant from the very first edition is its ‘growth’. The 13th edition is thus far the biggest, the fashion-forward customers of the country are going to experience. Our successful omni- channel model, which now has 200+ brands, and expanding MENSA network enabling a stronger last-mile delivery, with 20,000 partners, will be pivotal in enhancing customers’ shopping experience. Through our flagship EORS event, we are looking at acquiring one million new customers, and preparing to ship 1.5 crore items by the first week of the New Year safely to our customers’ doorsteps.”
