About

IndiaRetailBiz, a link blog, attempts to aggregate the best of news, views, research, trends, and every thing else that is relevant to India’s booming retail business.

India’s organised retail business, despite policy impediments and opposition from political activists and traditional retailers, is growing by leaps and bounds, thanks among others to favourable demographics, rising disposable incomes, growing economy, and rapid urbanisation.

We at IndiaRetaiBiz are working towards capturing every aspect of the excitement associated with the evolving sector.

We will always strive to provide timely, interesting, useful, authentic, relevant and consistent information on Indian retail sector. As India, being a part of the globe, can not operate in isolation, we will also attempt to cover international news, views, and developments that in our opinion, in the near or long term, may have bearing on India’s retail sector.

IndiaRetailBiz is owned by Delta Systems (P) Ltd- an Ahmedabad based management consultancy, which offers professional consultancy services in the area of strategic enterprise management with emphasis on strategic marketing and retail management.

Imposing and Ingenious. Valuable info available for citizens of Retail Republic. Much needed in this clutter.

Can you please provide some information on ‘Price Points’. viz. In Western countries, retail prices are often called psychological prices or odd prices, a little less than a round number, e.g. $9.95. In Chinese societies, prices are generally either a round number or sometimes a lucky number!

It would be good if you can add a ‘Retailing Glossary’ for ready reference specially for greenhorns like us.

It is nice to receive information about the growing retail sector at one place. I am keenly interested in the growth and news from this sector as I am providing medical services to the retail industry in Ahmedabad since last 2 years.

This sector has become the most active sector which touches daily needs of the people at most competitive price. It is providing thousands of jobs to the youth too.

Best wishes.

Dear Sirs,

Great job in knowledge management.

However very less is said about Rural Retail.

Can you separate Urban retail chains and rural retail chains operating and their plans?

As an MBA (PGDBM) student it is very necessary for me to know about different sectors, external and internal environment of the company. But I specially thanks to india retailbiz team which is providing so much of good, important and necessary info about the retail sector. My sincere advice to you is that it will be better if you provide all data about all retail companies, revenue, profit etc. Thanks
