INTRODUCTION
Definition of retail:
“Retailing includes all activities involved in selling
goods or services directly to the final consumer for personal or non- business
use”.
Retail has played a major role world over in increasing productivity
across a wide range of consumer goods and services. Retail is the second
largest employer in India of which 4.1 million (70%) sell food products, and
related items. The Indian retail sector is estimated to have a market size of
about $ 180 billion; but the organised sector represents only 2% share of this
market. Most of the organised retailing in the country has just started recently,
and has been concentrated mainly in the metro cities. India is the last large
Asian economy to liberalize its retail sector.
Across cities in India as a result, from just 3 malls in 2000, India is all
set to have over 220 malls by 2005. Today, the expected demand for quality
retail space in 2006 is estimated to be around 40 million square feet.
Different form of retail outlets:
• Hyper marts
• Large supermarkets, typically (3,500 - 5,000 sq. ft)
• Mini supermarkets, typically (1,000 - 2,000 sq. ft)
• Convenience store, typically (750 - 1,000 sq. ft)
• Discount/shopping list grocer
• Traditional retailers trying to reinvent by introducing self-service
formats as well as value-added services such as credit, free home
delivery etc.

The location of a retail store occupies an important place in retail strategy. It
not only conveys the image of the store, but also influences the merchandise
mix and the interior layout of the store. While the merchandise mix can be
changed and prices can be adjusted, it is difficult to change the decision on
store location.
Target market and Positioning of Pantaloons:
Pantaloons are positioned as a department store catering to the middle and
upper-middle class sections at each of its locations. Its core offering is branded
merchandise, retailing international, national and regional brands as well as
private and proprietary labels.
Today, a leader in Fashion Pantaloons promises Fresh Fashion for the entire
family as well as the young and the young-at-heart. The belief is that they will
be the key drivers of fashion. Thus it is a store focusing on providing a value
for money proposition as it provides quality fashion products at an affordable
9
price as compared to the competitors.
Parking facility:
The traffic – pedestrian as well as vehicular – that passes the site is an
important determinant of the potential sales that can be generated from a store.
A pantaloon is known to have good parking space wherever it’s located.
Accessibility of the market:
Accessibility of a market is defined in terms of the availability of public
transport and road/local trains connections to the markets. It is mostly located
in posh locality in the center of the city. Further the easy availability of
transport facilitates makes the location really accessible for shopping.
Visibility:
A pantaloon is situated very close to the main road. Pantaloons being a three
floor building have great visibility. To enhance the visibility pantaloons has
put its sign board on the top of the building.
Competitors:
Its presence area encompasses stores like Lifestyle, Trent; Adidas….which
directly compete with Pantaloons. This is really disadvantageous for
Pantaloons.
PRODUCT MIX OFFERED:
The kind of product mix to be offered by the retailer is another important
consideration. As mentioned earlier the main product line of Pantaloons is
men’s and women’s clothing and other accessories comprising a vigilant mix
of private as well as other labels...
Product Categories and private labels:

Store design- Store Exteriors & Store Interior
11
Pantaloons follows a theme based interior, like a corner is assigned to every
brand and that brand put up its product as per its liking. Also the posters and
ads for discounts and offers for them are put up there only Exteriors of
pantaloons stores are very attractive & eye catchy. They put up fresh fashion
collections on the dummies on the entrance.
Interior Store design:
Flooring and Ceiling:
The interior layout generates good brand associations through appropriate
color combinations. The white color of the walls and floor coupled with the
green color of the visual merchandise helps in portraying the brand effectively
Graphics and Sign ages:
Exactly opposite to the entrance gate of the store is a store directory
mentioning the various sections/departments of the entire store (Ground, First
and Second floors).
Lighting:
Good lighting in a store involves more than illuminating space. Lighting is
used to highlight merchandise, sculpt face and capture a mood feeling that
enhances the store image.
Music:
Mostly there is rock as well as soft music no particular music beat is
followed.
Store security:
Well they have ample staff available with them to guide as well as to keep a
check on the customers. Also they have cc cameras put up at various spots.
Walk Ways and Entries:
Approximately 75 % of first time customers remember a store’s entrance,
which provides the first and last view of the store’s interior. A cluttered
entryway cause’s shopper’s to indefinitely postpone entering a store, while an
attractive, well designed entrance is inviting to the customers and that’s what
pantaloons provides.

DITI GUIDANCE
4 C’S of Diamond
Colour
To accurately determine a diamond's colour grade the diamond is viewed,
table down, under controlled conditions and compared to a "Master Set"
41
whose colors have been predetermined. Our diamonds are carefully colour-
graded by experienced professional graders according to these guidelines.
Fancy colored diamonds occur in nature in shades ranging from pale yellows
and pinks to vivid blues and reds; these vivid hues are the rarest of all.
Diamonds can also be artificially colour-enhanced to achieve every shade
from pure white to black.
Clarity
Most diamonds develop natural "inclusions," such as "crystals" or "feathers,"
during their formation deep within the earth. Diamond clarity is graded based
on the position, colour, number, nature and size of these inclusions. The fewer
the inclusions, the rarer the diamond and the greater the value. Flawless and
internally flawless diamonds are exceedingly rare.
All Diti diamonds are graded for clarity by professionally trained, experienced
graders according to the guidelines.
Carat
Of the 4 C's carat weight is the simplest factor used to determine the value of a
diamond. As with other precious gems, the weight of a diamond is expressed
in carats.
One carat equals one-fifth of a gram or 1/142 of an ounce. A carat is divided
into 100 points, so a 3 / 4 carat diamond weighs 75 points or 0.75 carats.
Cut
A diamond begins its existence as an irregularly shaped piece of crystal,
sometimes called "rough". The diamond cutter examines the rough and
determines the most appropriate shape for it. This is based on several
factors…chiefly the general shape of the rough crystal, its size, nature of any
imperfections, and consideration as to how much weight might be lost in the
cutting process. The skill of the cutter is vital. A master cutter may practice his
craft for twenty or thirty years before being allowed to handle the finest rough.
42
Cut is the single most important factor in determining the diamond's beauty
and value. A poorly cut diamond may sell up for up to 50% less than a very
well-cut diamond of otherwise identical colour and clarity.
AFTER SALES SERVICES:
Customer Assurance

CONCLUSION
At last I concluded that the experience of preparing retail project is so
good and I enhance my knowledge about retail business & retail market. I
interact with manager or executive of retail stores in different segment like food
& beverages, clothing, consumer durable goods, jewellery & watch and home
décor. So I also improve my communication skill.
The one thing that is common amongst these estimates is that Indian
organized retail market will be very big in 2010. The status of the retail industry
will depend mostly on external factors like Government regulations and policies
and real estate prices, besides the activities of retailers and demands of the
93
customers also show impact on retail industry.
Now a days retail industry is growing industry, and their modification
also take place. I analyzed whole project and find that the modern trend is comes
in retailing business. At past years we were buy any food product from small
kirana store but now a days most of people like to buy from super market, mall
and hyper mart. We are buying all product from one roof so its very convenient
for customer.
In one roof of mall we buy products like food items cloths, entertainment
goods i.e. T.V, and all necessary products. In this mall customer also get benefit
of various schemes like 80% off, buy 1 get 1 free, discount offer, money back
offer.
