...surveyed, 40% are students and 60% are employed people from different streams and professions. Analysis- Question 1- From the data provided for this question, one can clearly see that Pantaloons is way ahead from the other two retail stores Shopper’s Stop and Westside for both visiting and buying purposes. By purchase- By visit- The data collected for this question further tells us that the Pantaloons stores at South City and Gariahat are the ones which equally have the maximum people visiting as well as buying from them. Question 2-From the data collected for this question, the following graph has been constructed. From this graph, we see that though 2 respondents claim to be visiting Shopper’s Stop more than once a week, there is 1 respondent who claims to never have visited at all. But for Pantaloons, though the frequency of visits of the respondents vary between twice a month to once in three months or less, at least none of the respondents claim to have never visited the store at all, which is the case with both Westside and Shopper’s Stop. Hence, we can conclude exposure of Pantaloon’s store is enough to raise curiosity amongst people and make them visit their stores at least once. Question 3-In this question, the respondents surveyed could recall 64 brands available in the Pantaloons stores compared to 33 of Shopper’s Stop and 15 of Westside. This...

"I see that he is wearing Colour Plustrousers. I know his waist size ... I know everything about him. We are a company of observers, andeverybody is trained to observe customers," says Biyani, who is CEO of the Future Group and managingdirector of its flagship Pantaloon retail chain that last year had revenues of Rs. 2,018 crore ($450million) and expects to become a $1 billion company by mid 2007. Biyani often spends Sundays hanging about unobtrusively and watching shoppers at his company's 200clothing stores in 32 Indian cities.

Retail is the fastest growing sector in the Indian economy. It is growing at 9% per annum. The Indian retail market is estimated at US$ 350 billion Retail is India s largest industry, accounting for over 10 per cent of the country s GDP and around eight per cent of the employment. The Indian retail sector is highly fragmented with 97 per cent of its business being run by the unorganized retailers like the traditional family run stores and corner stores. The sector is the largest source of employment after agriculture, and has deep penetration into rural India generating more than 10 per cent of India s GDP. Large Indian players like Reliance, Ambanis, K Rahejas, Bharti AirTel, ITC and many others are making significant investments in this sector. However, the opportunity is huge-by 2010, organised retail is expected to grow at 6 per cent by 2010 and touch a retail business of $ 17 billion as against its current growth level of 3 per cent which at present is estimated to be $ 6 billion.

...Dheepak on Retail STVP 2007-002 STVP-2007-002 [June 12, 2007] Organized Retail “Inquilab” in India Current Landscape of Retail in India The Indian government does not recognize retail as an industry. In India 98% of the retail sector consists of counter-stores and street-vendors.1 With no large players, inadequate infrastructure and a small affording population that believed in saving rather than spending, Indian retail never attracted the interest of large corporations. That was till they realized that retail in India is a USD 320 billion dollar industry, growing at CAGR 5% and contributing to 39% of the GDP2 (See exhibit 1 for projected market size of retail in India.). It might seem almost nonsensical that this important sector of the country’s economy has been overlooked by corporate giants. One cannot blame them though. Indian retail has been a traditionally unorganized sector, dominated by counter-stores and street vendors (See Exhibits 2 and 3 for pictures). While retail employs a large sector of the population, most of these people are uneducated, unskilled individuals that regard retail as the preferred career alternative to agriculture. They never had the means nor will to develop the sector or expand their business. Retail never enjoyed the support of the Indian consumer. A miserly population that barely had the means to make end meet never treated shopping as a form of leisure. While individual retailers saw small gains, lack of infrastructure...
