Delhi pollution spike drives surge in sales

In Delhi, when the weather gets cold and pollution levels go up, people start buying more eye drops, masks, nebulisers, and air purifiers.

This happens every year because the cold and pollution make people's eyes feel dry and irritated, and it's harder to breathe.

Chemists say they see a lot more sales of these products during this time.

Some people are also buying nebulisers, which help with breathing, especially for babies and older people.

The Chamber of Trade and Industry (CTI) has asked the government to lower taxes on air purifiers because sales have gone up five times.

Customers are visiting pharmacies more often to buy these things for themselves and their families.
