Frequently Asked Questions
How do I calculate discount percentage?
Discount % = ((Original Price − Sale Price) ÷ Original Price) × 100. Example: item was ₹2,000, now ₹1,500. Discount % = ((2000−1500) ÷ 2000) × 100 = 25%.
How do I find the original price from a discounted price?
Original Price = Sale Price ÷ (1 − Discount%/100). Example: item costs ₹1,500 after 25% discount. Original = 1500 ÷ 0.75 = ₹2,000.
What is the best discount for sales?
Research shows 20–30% discounts drive the highest conversion without significantly damaging brand perception. Discounts above 50% can signal low quality. Psychological pricing like '₹999' or '30% off' consistently outperforms round numbers.
How do stacked discounts work?
Stacked (sequential) discounts are NOT additive. A 20% discount followed by an additional 10% off is NOT 30% total. It's: Final = Price × 0.80 × 0.90 = 72% of original = 28% total discount, not 30%.
