We import around 20 percent of the sprinklers and water guns from China and more than 90 percent of Holi related water toys are also expected to get imported from the dragon country.

This has also shown a toll on the stock of the guns and sprinklers used during the celebrations of Holi.

China holds a lion share out of the total toys that were sold in India with a whopping 85 percent. Sri Lanka, Malaysia, Germany, and Hong Kong grabbed the following next places.
