• Premium Pilgrimage Services: Rise of luxury tour packages including helicopter transfers and VIP darshans (e.g., Epic Yatra's Luxury Char Dham packages).

• Quick-Commerce for Rituals: Urban consumers increasingly using 10-minute delivery platforms for puja essentials during festivals like Ganesh Chaturthi.
