We had started from small medium and semi large grocery stores and now is
theera of malls, super markets and hyper markets where different categories
of commodities are sold under one roof.The good old idea of grocery shops
have been left far behind.However we arestill developing when compared to
the U.S.Today 10% of GDP is from retail and we are striving for more.Thechallenges that come our way are
y The taxstructure in India favorssmall retail business y Lack of adequate infrastructure facilities y High cost of real estatey Dissimilarity in consumer groupsy Restrictions in Foreign Direct Investmenty Shortage of retail study options y Shortage of trained manpowery Low retail management skill
However the future ofRetail seems very bright with a large group ofMulti-

These are the two basic conditions that are required by a company to
score big in the retail industry.Availability ofspace is a major concern
When it comes to setting up a retail business.The next highest cost
incurred is theemployee cost which every big retail has to have when
they decide on selling consumer products that will be directly consumedby the customers.
A country like India who isjust preparing to get into the shoes of big
retail giants is the perfect place for an already established company to
operate.The cheap labour and real-estate gives these big multi national
companiesenough reason to set up their operations and for a country
liek India where employment of few of its citizens could help in
contributing to the nationswealth,a company like Wall-mart is always
welcome. It always gives India the required Global recognition that could
be very beneficial for them.
Our government has also opened up to a 51% investment from a foreign
company to come to India and do business for example Wal-mart has
been allowed tojoint venture with Bharti Enterprise.
