the industries, accounting for over 10% of the
country’s GDP & around 8% of the
employment.

 India retail industry is expected to grow 25%


annually.

 Modern retail in India could be worth US $175-


200 billion by 2016.
 A large young working population with
median age of 24 years, nuclear families in
urban areas, along with increasing working
women population & emerging
opportunities in the services sector are
going to be the key drivers of the organized
retail sector in India.

the retail sector in India are

5. Falling real estate prices
6. Increase in disposable income and customer
aspiration
7. Increase in expenditure for luxury items
 Malls

opportunities in urban markets seem to lie in capturing and
delivering better value to the customers through retail.

 However, manufacturers and service providers will also


increasingly face a host of specialist retailers, who are
characterized by use of modern management techniques,
backed with seemingly unlimited financial resources.
Organized retail appears inevitable.

Retailing in India is currently estimated to be a US$ 200 billion
industry, of which organized retailing makes up a paltry 3
percent or US$ 6.4 billion. By 2010, organized retail is
projected to reach US$ 23 billion. For retail industry in India,
things have never looked better and brighter. Challenges to
the manufacturers and service providers would abound when
market power shifts to organized retail.

role throughout the world in increasing
productivity of consumer goods and
services.

as one of the most dynamic and fast
paced industries with several players
entering the market. But all of them have
not yet tasted success because of the
heavy initial investments that are required
to break even with other companies and
compete with them. The India Retail
Industry is gradually inching its way
towards becoming the next boom
industry.

Shopping as a Necessity to shopping for

pleasure.
Itemized Purchase to Bulk purchase
Prepared Food to Ready to eat
Utilized-Based products to Lifestyle

Products
Conservative Spending to Liberal

Spending
Increased Buying During Holidays and

Festive Seasons
Enormous potential for rural retail.
50billion dollar organized retail market
by 2011
Presently 87%of rural markets have no
acess to organized rural areas
Future it would be seen integration of
rural supply chain and urban retailers.
Scope for increased FDI in retail.
In future India would eventually have to
open its doors to the likes of
Walmart,Tessco and such others.
Technology Trends
Organized retail sector in india can expect to witness a
second big revolution in the not too distant future,in spite
of setback faced due to the current economic slowdown.
A possible decision to allow FDI in multi-brand retailing
could provide significant impetus, as India is a huge
market with very low percentage .
Inspite of certain speculations organized retail sector is very
likely to bounce back and once again begin growing at
rapid pace.
