India Retail
The second half of 2010 has been an exciting one for the
retail industry with an increased momentum in transaction
activity amidst surging retailer interest. Various established
brands and other national or international retailers
continued with their renewed expansion plans across the
country. A positive economic outlook, surging consumer
confidence and spending helped the market maintain its
pace of recovery from the downturn.
India witnessed the addition of more than 5 million sq
ft of organised retail mall space in the country across
various primary and secondary locations in the year 2010.
This was concentrated largely in the National Capital
Region, Mumbai, Bangalore and Chennai. This supply is a
consequence of the positive sentiments amongst retailers
on spatial expansion and enhancing their footprint across
the country. Pre-commitments in under construction assets
in prime locations is also an encouraging sign. Rental
flexibility, along with the minimum guarantee coupled
with revenue share model has become more acceptable
in the industry. With their mall developments in advanced
stages of construction, developers had to ward off vacancy
pressures by providing a more accommodative view of
sharing revenues with the retailers. This approach has
reduced vacancy pressures in various malls, thereby
providing floor earnings to developers. Developers and
retailers are also working towards looking to partner each
others success.
In all the seven cities presented in this review the retail
real estate market appears to be promising with an
appreciable increase in enquiries being witnessed from
retailers. Moving ahead, transaction activity and size are
expected to increase on the back of increase in consumer
spending and expanding mid income purchasing power.
However, despite this incremental demand, retail mall
supply pipeline is very large, especially in leading cities like
NCR, Mumbai, Bangalore, Pune and Chennai. This would
ensure that pressures remain on developers to offer rental
discounts and transaction flexibility to avoid higher vacancy
levels in the long term. While the prime destinations will
continue to be high in demand and also witness an upward
rental movement on account of developer expectations, it
would largely be the secondary locations in these cities
which will bear the brunt of large supply influx in the next
two years.
Whilst the retail landscape of India appears dynamic and
is continuously evolving, it is imperative for retailers and
developers to increasingly cooperate and adopt practices
aimed at improving footfalls and conversion ratios in
mall properties. This can be handled by efficient mall-
management practices, more efficient mall design layouts
and tenant profiling approaches, to establish specific zones
for varying target customer groups, all of which contribute
towards attracting footfalls. It is also anticipated that foreign
direct investment in multi brand retail will open up new
opportunities for the industry and leading developers. India
being the fifth largest retail market in the world has been
the focus of global expansion plans of various international
retailers, which have been targeting the BRIC (Brazil,
Russia, India and China) consumer base as their core area
of interest. This position is expected to continue in the near
future as well, with organised retail segment expanding its
footprint across the country.

Market Summary
The retail market has demonstrated signs of buoyancy
in the second half of 2010. With increase in hiring,
income levels and an overall feel good factor in the
economy, the mood in the market remains upbeat.
This has further been aided by the festive season and
a sustained influx of new brands over the past few
months in the NCR, resulting in the industry gaining
further momentum.
A slew of international brands have set up shop in
the country, and a further set of brands are evaluating
strategies for market entry in the coming quarters.
Prominent brands that have launched their flagship
stores in the last few months include European labels
like Jack & Jones and Vero Moda, American outdoor
footwear brand Timberland and Casual Diner Chilis,
youth fashion brands like Forever 21, Diesel and Ecko
Unlimited along with skincare specialist Kiehls.
After a successful stint in Southern India, the Australian
caf chain Gloria Jeans launched its first set of
outlets in North India. In addition, the homegrown high
end fashion destination The Collective made its much
hyped debut in the NCR market. Even large format
retailers like Lifestyle and Funcity opened their first
outlets in South Delhi and others such as Shoppers
Stop, Pantaloons and Marks & Spencers have
strengthened their footprint within micro market. The
initial response to the entry of above brands has been
encouraging, and has generated footfalls in major mall
properties or high street locations where these brands
have opened shop. The market confidence amongst
these brands and other retailers is also evident from
their commitment to evaluate additional retail space
in upcoming developments to expand their footprint
in the region.
On the supply side, operational Grade A Malls in the
NCR market, located in Saket and Vasant Kunj as well
as prominent developments in West Delhi, continued
to observe near full occupancy rates. Meanwhile,
Grade B high street locations and malls, especially
in the suburbs continued to experience sustained
corrections and vacancy rates. The next few quarters
will also aid fresh supply with the launch of few
projects in West Delhi, Gurgaon and Ghaziabad.
With quality real estate in the prime markets/malls
getting saturated, an emerging trend amongst
larger retail formats has been to start exploring
developments in suburbs and pre-committing space
in upcoming developments. Upcoming projects in
Gurgaon and Noida are mostly being transacted on a
lease only model. The same has encouraged retailers
like hypermarkets, F&B stores, departmental stores,
multiplex chains and FECs to start committing spaces
in these developments.
Rental Trends
Compared to the first half of 2010, rental values
increased by almost 9 11% in the high street
location of Khan Market, while remaining stable in
locations such as Connaught Place and Basant Lok.
In the organised segment, retail rentals appreciated
by almost 15 - 20% in Saket District Centre and by
almost 10 - 15% in Vasant Kunj. However, rentals in
malls in Gurgaon and Noida remained stable, due to
substantial supply pipeline against an appreciating
demand. The minimum guarantee and revenue
share model (limited to malls only) appears to be fast
becoming the norm with established retailers and
developers, providing a win-win situation for both.

MUMBAI
Market Summary
Steady growth has been observed in the supply of
quality retail spaces in Mumbai, with many international
brands setting up operations in new malls. Stabilized
rental values coupled with an increasing consumer
confidence and spending pattern has resulted in
retailers moving back to mall spaces, open more
stores and revisit their expansion plans.
Palladium at High Street Phoenix, a premium project
which became operational in 2009, witnessed some
prominent global brands like Armani (Emporio
Armani), Zara, Burberry, Etro and Clarins, opening
their first / flagship stores in the city. R-City Centre
(Phase-I) in the Eastern Suburbs of Mumbai also saw
increasing occupancy levels with the new stores like
Jammin, Mother Earth, amongst others. With Phase -
1 of the mall fully operational, footfalls have increased
significantly and the project has now become a popular
retail destination in the eastern suburbs of the city.
High street destinations of Mumbai such as Linking
Road observed the opening of few new stores such
as Jack & Jones, Only, Vero Moda, sports brands
such as Nike and Adidas. In addition to these, Tata
International launched Tashi, flagship store of their
footwear and accessories brand. First flagship stores
of new brands such as Bombay High, OVS are
expected to be operational in the first quarter of 2011.

projects.

BANGALORE
Market Summary
Bangalores retail market continued to gather
momentum with retailers expanding across all the
micro markets in the second half of the year. The city
witnessed larger space take ups by retailers in malls
that are under construction and are expected to get
operational in 2011. With more than 4 million sq ft
of mall space coming into the market next year, this
segment is expected to witness maximum activity.
The major high street areas like MG Road, Commercial
Street, 100 Feet Road, Indiranagar, 80 Feet Road,
Koramangala and Jayanagar 4th Block continued to
remain the preferred choice for existing retailers and
new entrants. Across major categories, retailers like
Helios, Titan, Only, Jack & Jones, Celio, Reid & Taylor,
Triumph, Guess, The Body Shop, Reliance Digital and
Reliance Jewels continued to expand their footprint
in these key micro markets. Additionally, F&B players
like 1947, Sunnys, Caff Pascucci, Matteo Coffea,
Outlook
Retailers continued to enquire for space
in Grade A projects and prime high street
locations. The high street locations continued
to command a premium due to scarcity of
supply. While approximately 4.1 million sq ft
of supply is expected to enter the market in
2011, a number of prominent national and
international brands have already pre-leased
space in these malls. These include Infinity
Megamall at Malad in the Western suburbs
and R-City Centre Phase-II, Ghatkopar, Market
City in Kurla and Nirmal Lifestyle Phase- II in
the Eastern suburbs.

significant rise in rental values in malls across the city.
As compared to the first half of 2010, mall rental values
in Central Mumbai increased by almost 40 - 45%,
followed by Western Suburbs (24 - 26%) and Eastern
Suburbs (14 -15%). Mall developers continued to work
on the minimum guarantee/revenue share model with
retailers, whereas high street landlords still prefer the
flat rental models. The rental values in the high street
location of Linking Road appreciated by almost 45%
compared to last year.

Hypermarkets also witnessed a rapid expansion with
retailers taking up large spaces across key markets.
These include HyperCITY (leasing 72,000 sq ft on
Bannerghatta Road), Total (142,000 sq ft on the Outer
Ring Road), D-Mart (22,000 sq ft in Jayanagar) and
More Megastore (40,000 sq ft on Old Madras Road
and 65,000 sq ft in JP Nagar), respectively.
Almost ten malls being constructed across various
micro markets including Yeshwantpur, Outer Ring
Road, Whitefield and Bannerghatta Road are expected
to become operational in 2011. New retailers that
would be setting up shop next year include the likes
of S.Oliver, ZARA, Debenhams, Blu-O, DLF Home,
Cocoberry, IZOD, GANT and Jumbo Electronics.
Additionally, established retailers have also started
showcasing interest in properties located close to the
Bangalore metro stations as well as New Airport Road
due to better footfalls.
Rental Trends
Rental values witnessed an increase in both high
street locations as well as mall clusters. Rental trends
are in continuance with the patterns of the first half of
2010 with established and emerging retailers leasing
out spaces in the key markets. Premium high street
properties continue to be high in demand, wherein
landlords are able to command a certain leverage,
which forces retailers to accept even their high rental
expectations. Rental values in the high street areas
of Commercial Street increased by 4 - 5%, while the
same on Brigade Road increased by 10 - 12% from
first half of 2010. In the organised retail segment, the
South Bangalore micro market of Koramangala and
Jayanagar observed maximum increase in rentals (13
- 15%), followed by North Bangalore - CBD (7 - 8%)
and East Bangalore (8 - 11%).

CHENNAI
Market Summary
As compared to last year, the retail market in Chennai
witnessed significant improvement in demand and
supply situation. Developers are now complementing
this recovery by ensuring quicker delivery of projects.
However, various high street locations still face
a dearth of quality supply compared to the rising
demand in each micro market.
Two shopping malls, namely Express Avenue and
Ampa Skywalk both located in the Central Business
District (CBD) served as a platform for numerous
brands to establish their presence for the first time in
the city. Footfalls and revenue generation across all
formats in these malls has been substantial for various
retailers, thus paving the way for a large number of
premium and upmarket brands to take up space as
well.
Rental Trends
While rental values have remained stagnant in most
of the micro markets, there are few high streets like
Nungambakkam, Adyar and Alwarpet where a rental
improvement of 10 - 15% in the second half of 2010
has been witnessed.
The Chennai market witnessed improvement in supply
compared to last year which is expected to stabilize
retail rentals (especially in mall properties) in the long
run. Upcoming supply will help match rising demand
levels, thereby stabilising rental values. Already new
mall supply has resulted into a correction of 15 - 20%
in rental values of few existing malls. Rentals are

HYDERABAD
Market Summary
During the second half of 2010 most of the developers
in Hyderabad reinitiated their construction plans which
were halted during the economic slowdown especially
in the Central Business District (CBD) of Jubilee Hills
Road No 36. Approximately 150,000 sq ft of retail
space is under construction and is expected to be
completed by Q1 2011.
Banjara Hills and Jubilee Hills witnessed maximum
market activity as they continued to remain the most
preferred micro markets for high-end retailers and new
entrants. During the second half of the year, Harley
Davidson opened its showroom in Banjara Hills Road
No. 2, while Diesel is likely to mark their presence
by January 2011 on the same stretch. In addition to
this, Jaguar Land Rover and Porsche opened their
showrooms in Jubilee Hills Road No. 36.
In the first half of 2011, almost one million sq ft of fresh
supply is expected to be introduced in the emerging
micro markets of LB Nagar, Vanasthalipuram, AS
Rao and Kukatpally. Prajay Princeton, spread over
150,000 sq ft and located in Vanasthalipuram is
expected to become operational by March 2011.
Bharti Walmart has pre-committed almost 60,000 sq ft
Outlook
Positive response received by two new
shopping malls in the city helped in boosting
the confidence of developers and retailers alike.
There are three large size destination malls
which are expected to hit the market before the
end of 2012, providing a great platform for both
the international and domestic retailers. With
abundant supply expected to hit the market in
next few years, the future of retail industry looks
optimistic.
in this development.
A total mall development of 1.2 million sq ft (a
cluster of 3-4 malls including the likes of Manjeera
Construction and Prestige Forum) is in the pipeline in
Kukatpally. This includes another large development
by Madhucon Group, at a spread of almost 700,000 sq
ft, also lined up in this micro market. However, these
projects are expected to become operational between
2012 - 2014.
At the same time, due to non availability of vacant land
parcels, very limited or no new supply is expected in
established micro markets like Banjara Hills Road No.
1, Himayath Nagar, Begumpet, Rajbhavan Road and
Panjagutta. Besides limited supply, the retailer churn
is also low in these micro markets.
Three new malls are coming up in Kondapur, namely
Skill Developers City Capital (800,000 sq ft), NCS
Delara Mall (Botanical Garden) (700,000 sq ft) and
SLN Terminus (175,000 sq ft).
Rental Trends
Banjara Hills and Jubilee Hills command the maximum
rental values as compared to the other micro markets,
largely due to their central location, very strong HNI
catchment and maximum footfalls. Compared to the
first half of 2010, rentals in Banjara Hills Road No
1 appreciated by almost 30 35%, while those in
Jubilee Hills Road No 36 increased by almost 18 -
20%. Old high streets like Himayathnagar observed
a 4 - 5% increase in rentals. However, in majority of
the mall properties rentals remained constant in the
review period.

PUNE
Market Summary
With stable economic conditions and renewed retailer
confidence, Pune witnessed hefty absorption of retail
space across all the high streets in the second half
of 2010. These included D-Mart which opened two
supermarkets at Baner and Kalyani Nagar, Pantaloons
acquired 65,000 sq ft at Senapati Bapat Road and
Star Bazaar opened a 55,000 sq ft hypermarket in
Pimpri Chinchwad. Major retailers also committed to
spaces in upcoming mall developments.
Besides hyper markets, large absorption was also
observed from banks for their retail branches. These
included IDBI taking up almost 17,000 sq ft at
University Road, Shivaji Nagar, Barclays acquiring
10,000 sq ft at Bund Garden Road and Citibank with
30,000 sq ft at Koregaon Park.
During the second half of 2010, R Deccan Mall at a
spread of almost 100,000 sq ft became operational
along JM Road. Currently, the vacancy in this mall
stands at almost 40%.
Rental Trends
Renewed interest from retailers coupled with scarcity
of supply led to a significant rise in the rental values
across the major high streets like MG Road (20 -
25%) and JM Road (12 - 15%). However, the rentals
at Aundh and Koregaon Park remained stable due to
additional supply that is likely to become available in
the coming quarters.
As compared to first half of 2010, mall rental values
remained stable across all micro markets. However
with large mall supply across the eastern corridor,
downward pressures might exist on rental values in
the coming months.

KOLKATA
Market Summary
The retail real estate in Kolkata witnessed increased
leasing activity towards the second half of the year.
Traditional prime retail high street locations such as
Park Street, Camac Street, Elgin Road and Theatre
Road remained inactive through all quarters of
2010, due to paucity of quality supply and unviable
commercials terms. There were a few small ticket
retail transactions in secondary markets such as
Gariahat and VIP Road. Some premium brands also
explored options in up market residential areas such
as Alipore to tap the target clientele without incurringheavy rentals at prime retail high street locations.
Forum Courtyard, an extension of the existing Forum
Mall on Elgin Road commenced operations in the third
quarter of 2010. The mall added another 40,000 sq ft
of prime retail space to the retail stock and introduced
flagship stores of various premium international
brands in the city. Some of the leading brands that
ventured into the Kolkata market are Mango, Promod,
Charles & Keith, Aldo, Alcott, Boggi, Mothercare and
Sunglass Hut. In addition to this, Espirit, Vero Moda
and Jack & Jones opened stores at South City Mall on
Prince Anwar Shah Road.
Vacancy levels remained stable for retail high streets
across various micro markets in Kolkata. Vacancy
levels for prime city and secondary micro market malls
came down marginally. With South City Mall and Forum

Courtyard experiencing leasing activity, vacancy levels
declined marginally to 5% in the second half of 2010,
from 7% in the first half. Vacancy for malls in secondary
micro markets of Kolkata also dipped slightly from 14%
to 12%, following some leasing uptake.
In the secondary micro markets, City Centre 2 and
Axis Mall witnessed maximum leasing activity, with
Spencer Hypermarket committing almost 25,000 sq ft
of retail space in Axis Mall.
New retail developments are expected in the secondary
micro markets of Kolkata over the coming quarters.
Significant developments include the Diamond Plaza
on Jessore Road and Lake Mall at Lake Market. These
two malls are expected to add almost 500,000 sq ft
to the retail stock of the city. Other developments
expected towards the outskirts of the city are RainbowMall in Narendrapur and Avani Riverside in Howrah,
expected to be completed in the first quarter of 2011.
Rental trends
On account of limited supply, rental values witnessed
an upward spike in most of the high street locations.
Malls such as Forum and South City witnessed an
appreciation in rentals of up to 5% in the second half
of 2010. In the organised retail segments, the rentals
in EM Bypass increased by 14-16%. Rental values
remained stagnant in the Salt lake area.

Outlook
With new retail developments expected to come
in the first half of 2011 and churning in existing
malls, there would be a steady supply of
organised retail space in the market. This might
lead to an increase in vacancy levels over the
next two quarters. Though pre-leasing activity
has been steady across new malls as well,
significant retailer interest still remains vested
for South City Mall and Forum Courtyard, as
they represent quality retail developments with
dedicated catchment. However, with the Kolkata
market being relatively untapped for various
brands, leasing activity across all micro markets
is expected to pick up towards the end of the
second and third quarters of 2011.
Rental values are expected to remain steady
for high streets with little churn. Rental values
at prime city malls are expected to increase as
they remain the preferred option for all brands
entering the Kolkata market. For suburban
malls, a gradual rise is expected towards the
end of the third quarter of 2011.
