{"title":"Impact of Online Discount on Indian Shoppers During Festive Seasons: An Analytical Study","authors":"Dolly Tripathi, Dr. Akshat Dubey","doi":"10.52783/eel.v14i1.1094","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.52783/eel.v14i1.1094","url":null,"abstract":"With the increasing preference of Indians to shop online instead of visiting physical stores, the retail sector in the country is undergoing significant transformation. Several factors are fueling the rapid rise in popularity of online shopping in India. These include the increasing internet penetration, a growing number of internet-savvy consumers, a larger labour force, a wide range of online stores offering goods from around the globe, and improved web accessibility. The concept of \"e-tailing\" refers to the business model where products are bought and sold through an online platform. India's retail sector is currently undergoing a significant transformation due to the transition from traditional stores to online marketplaces. During the festival season, online retailers are currently offering a variety of deals to attract more customers. In recent years, the popularity of online shopping has soared, allowing consumers to easily purchase a wide range of products, from everyday essentials to cutting-edge technology. Online shopping and digital shops are becoming increasingly popular in rural areas, reaching beyond the confines of city life. Several factors contribute to this phenomenon, such as increasing incomes, a stronger economy, a wide range of choices for consumers, and the active involvement of lenders in promoting digitalization and online shopping. The festival shopping sector is a significant driver behind the growth of e-commerce platforms. During holiday seasons, companies frequently offer promotions and significant discounts on both new and used products. In addition, they offer additional incentives such as cash-back deals and buy-one-get-one sales. At this time, companies would organise sales events with distinctive names such as \"Big Billion Days\" on Flipkart, \"Flash Sales\" on Myntra, and \"Great Festive Sale\" on Amazon. The aim of this study is to examine the impact of virtual shopping festivals on local communities and individual shoppers.","PeriodicalId":507836,"journal":{"name":"European Economic Letters (EEL)","volume":"35 28","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139962428","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Mutual Fund Investment Strategies for Retail Investors: An Empirical Study in the Light of Market Movements","authors":"J. Venugopal, M. R. Naik, Dr. K. Chezhiyan","doi":"10.52783/eel.v13i5.970","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.52783/eel.v13i5.970","url":null,"abstract":"Mutual fund investment strategies provide retail investors with diversified and professionally managed portfolios, making them an attractive option for wealth accumulation. One popular approach is index investing, where funds track a market index, aiming to replicate its returns. This strategy offers low costs and broad exposure. On the other hand, active management involves fund managers making investment decisions to outperform the market. While potentially yielding higher returns, it comes with higher fees. Asset allocation is another key strategy, where investors diversify their holdings across various asset classes like stocks, bonds, and commodities. This helps manage risk and optimize returns based on individual risk tolerance and financial goals. For those seeking stability, income funds focus on generating regular dividends, suited for conservative investors. In contrast, growth funds target capital appreciation by investing in companies with high growth potential. Careful consideration of these strategies, aligned with one's financial objectives and risk appetite, is essential for retail investors to make informed mutual fund choices.","PeriodicalId":507836,"journal":{"name":"European Economic Letters (EEL)","volume":"10 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139126238","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The present study aimed to study the presence of anxiety and stress symptoms among medical officers in the Indian army and the impact of anxiety and stress on psychological well-being during COVID. The data was collected from February 2021 to April 2021 using a standardized questionnaire to measure anxiety, stress, and psychological well-being. Data collected from 319 respondents were analyzed using SPSS by Chi-square tool, bivariate correlation, H-test, and U-test. The presence of anxiety and stressed symptoms were 11.9% and 37.3% among medical officers in the Indian army. Medical officers of the AMC unit (doctors) were more impacted by anxiety compared with MNS and ADC medical officers. The risk factors having significant association with stress symptoms were age (maximum in 31-40 and 51-60 years), rank (initial service ranks and senior ranks both), and unit (AMC and MNS are more prone to stress symptoms as compared to ADC unit). Anxiety (-0.543) at p<0.01 has more negative impact on psychological well-being among medical officers of armed forces as compared to stress at work (-0.243) at P<0.01. In this present study, results showed the high presence of anxiety and stress symptoms among medical officers during COVID-19. Results also demonstrated that there is a difference in anxiety level at different times of COVID. Differences in psychological well-being also exist and are impacted due to the presence of stress and anxiety. By prioritizing well-being, focus will be shifted to sustainable development of medical officers.","PeriodicalId":507836,"journal":{"name":"European Economic Letters (EEL)","volume":" 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139141006","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
