According to this year’s Global Retail Development Index India is positioned as the leading
destination for retail investment. This followed from the saturation in western retail markets
and we find big western retailers like Wal-mart and Tesco entering into Indian market. India’s
retail industry accounts for 10 percent of its GDP and 8 percent of the employment to reach
$17 billion by 2010. There are about 300 new malls, 1,500 supermarkets and 325 departmental
stores being built in the cities.
The BMI India Retail Report for the third-quarter of 2010, forecasts that the total retail
sales will grow from US$ 353 billion in 2010 to US$ 543.2 billion by 2014. With the
expanding middle and upper class consumer base, there will also be opportunities in India's tier
II and III cities. The greater availability of personal credit and a growing vehicle population to
improve mobility also contribute to a trend towards annual retail sales growth of 11.4 per cent.
Mass grocery retail (MGR) sales in India are forecast to undergo enormous growth over the
forecast period. BMI further predicts that sales through MGR outlets will increase by 154 per
cent to reach US$ 15.29 billion by 2014. This is a consequence of India's dramatic, rapid shift
from small independent retailers to large, modern outlets.
BMI forecasts consumer electronic sales at US$ 29.86 billion in 2010, with over the
counter (OTC) pharmaceutical sales at US$ 3.28 billion. The latter is predicted to be the fastest
growing retail sub-sector and BMI forecasts that sales will reach US$ 6.18 billion by 2014, an
increase of 88.5 per cent.
China and India are predicted to account for almost 91 per cent of regional retail sales
in 2010 and by 2014 their share of the regional market is expected to be more than 92 per cent.
Growth in regional retail sales for 2010-2014 is estimated by BMI at 72.2 per cent, an annual
average of 14 per cent. India should experience the most rapid rate of growth in the region,
followed by China. For India, its forecast market share of 13.9 per cent in 2010 is expected to
increase to 14.3 per cent by 2014.
Established retailers are tapping into the growing retail market by introducing
innovative store formats. Spencer's Retail, More (owned by Aditya Birla Group) and Shoppers
Stop (owned by K Raheja Group) already plan to expand.
According to a McKinsey & Company report titled 'The Great Indian Bazaar:
Organized Retail Comes of Age in India', organized retail in India is expected to increase from
5 per cent of the total market in 2008 to 14 - 18 per cent of the total retail market and reach
US$ 450 billion by 2015.
India continues to be among the most attractive countries for global retailers. Foreign
direct investment (FDI) inflows between April 2000 and April 2010, in single-brand retail
trading, stood at US$ 194.69 million, according to the Department of Industrial Policy and
Promotion (DIPP).

of people visit big bazaar in weekends.
Interpretation: I can clearly interpret from this that most of the people tend to visit big bazaar
in weekends rather than that of week days. There are more footfalls in big bazaar in weekends
than that of week days. Though there is not much difference as 40% of people visit big bazaar
in week days hence in weekends the footfall increases by 10%. As people come more in
weekends, so big bazaar should keep it open for more time in week ends. The infrastructure
can be changed a bit in week ends so that customers can see more products clearly and can
move around comfortably. In order to bring in more number of customers in week days big
bazaar should provide some schemes in week days which will encourage people to come in to
it in week days also.

in big bazaar during evening time than that of day time. Probably more of products are being
sold during evening time in big bazaar than that of day time. Big bazaar shall provide some

of any company. This analysis will explain about the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and
threats of big bazaar.

products/service with reasonable price.
2. At present time Big Bazaar provide different types of product assortments to the

different products which provide goods at a discounted rate all through the year.
11. The major players in retail industries are Big bazaar, The Tata Groups (Croma), Vishal
Retail Group, Reliance Retail, Kirana stores & Sabka Bazaar etc.
Big bazaar should include more of branded products its product category so as to attract the
brand choosy people to come in to big bazaar.
Big bazaar should provide large parking space for its customers so that they can easily park
their vehicles.
It should make different cash counters for different customers. Cash counter and credit card
payment counter should be placed differently in order to reduce the rush and save the
customer’s time. This will be a kind of motivator for the customers of big bazaar.
The service of the sales person is needed to be improved. Personal care should be taken by the
sales person for the customers so that the customers feel good.
During the off peak hour’s big bazaar should provide some offers to its customers so that
people would be encouraged to come to big bazaar during off peak hours. The customers who
are present in the mall during the off peak hours of big bazaar will definitely go in to big
bazaar if surprise offers are made at that time.
Customer care department is needed to take proper care of customer complaints and queries.
The person sitting at the help desk of big bazaar should be able to provide all necessary
information to the customers whenever it is required.
The infrastructure is needed to be changed a bit during weekends as heavy crowd comes in to
big bazaar during those days.
