PREFACEI am lucky that, I got the opportunity for making the project report on
Comparative Study of Organized Retail (D-Mart) and their formats andchallenges to unorganized retails in the current scenario. For this study I
visited the Malls, Hyper Markets and Departmental Stores in Ahmedabad
and Naroda and talk to various unorganized retailers (Kirana stores) to study
the problems defined. This report is written account of what I learnt and
experienced during the survey. I wish, those going through it will not only
find it readable but also get as useful Information. The main limitation of my
experience was that as the above said organized retails industry is reserved
with corporate formalities.

Executive SummaryRetailing is emerging as a sunrise industry in India and its presently the
largest employer after agriculture. The size of Indian organized retail
industry was Rs 28,000 Crores, which was only 3% of the total retailing
market.
The sunrise of the organised retailers in India creates a major turn in the
retail industry. Top major organised retail players are increasing their market
share day by day. Their main focus is based on FMCG and consumer
durables. With modernization, Indian culture is aping the western dressing
sense and lifestyle and these techniques is promoting by the Retailers and bythis they are generating a remarkable revenue from the Indian consumers.

CH-1 INTRODUCTION1.1 Retailing
Retailing is the business where an organization directly sells its products andservices to an end consumer and this is for his personal use. By definitionwhenever an organization be it a manufacturing or a whole seller sells directly tothe end consumer it is actually operating in the Retail space.
The retail industry in India is largely unorganized & predominantly consists ofsmall, independent, owner-managed shops. Retailing is INDIAs largest industry interms of contribution to GDP & constitutes 13% of GDP. There are around 5million retail outlets in India. There are also an uncounted number of low cost
kiosks (tea stalls, snacks centre, barber shops, etc) & mobile vendors. Total retailsales area in India was estimated at 328 million sq.mt.in 2001, with an averageselling space of 29.4sq.mt. per outlet. In India the per capita retailing space isabout 2sq. ft, which is quite low compared to that of developed economies.
In 2000, the global management consultancy AT Kearney put retail trade at400,000 crore , which is expected to increase to Rs.800,000 crore by year 2005 an annual increase of 20%. According to the survey, an overwhelming proportionof the Rs.400,000 crore retail market is unorganized. In fact only a Rs20,000 croresegment of market is organized. There is no integrated supply chain management
outlook in Indian traditional retail industry.
Food sales constitute a high proportion of the total retail sales. The share was69.2% in 2006,worth apprx. Rs 7032.2 billion, while non food sales were worthRs.4189.5 billion. However the non-food retailing sector registered faster year-on-year growth than the food sales sector. The trend to market private labels byspecific retail store is catching on in India as it helps to improve margins. Theturnover from private labels by major retail chains was estimated at around Rs1200 million in 2001.
CURRENT SCENARIO OF INDIAN RETAIL: Unorganized market; Rs. 5,83,000 crores. Organized market; Rs. 5,000 crores. 5 x growths in organized retailing between 2005-2010. Over 4000 new modern outlets in last 3 years. The top 3 modern retailers control over 750,000 sq.ft of retail space.

1.3 Where is the opportunity?Retailers inspired by the Wal-Mart story of growth in small town America aretempted to focus on smaller towns and villages in India. However, a carefulanalysis of the town strata-wise population, population growth, migration trends
and consumer spend analysis reveals a very different picture for India.
As per our estimates, the share of the 35 towns with a present population of greaterthan 1 million in India's total population would grow much faster than their smallercounterparts, from 10.2 per cent today to reach 14.4 per cent by 2025.
Simultaneously, the share of these towns in the overall retail market would growfrom 21 per cent today to 40 per cent by 2025.Within these top 35 towns, anestimated 70 to 80 per cent of retail trade could be in the organized sector. This issimilar to the experience in China, where in cities like Shanghai and Beijing, theorganised sector accounts for 70 to 80 per cent of overall retail trade in certaincategories. Retailers should therefore focus on the top 37 towns in the next decade,as the opportunity in smaller towns and rural India would be smaller and morefragmented, compared to the larger towns

A hypermarket is a superstore which combines a supermarket and a departmentstore. The result is a very large retail facility which carries an enormous range ofproducts under one roof, including full lines ofgroceries and general merchandise.In theory, hypermarkets allow customers to satisfy all their routine weeklyshopping needs in one trip.
3. Department Stores:A department store is a retail establishment which specializes in satisfying a widerange of the consumer's personal and residential durable goods product needs;and at the same time offering the consumer a choice multiple merchandise lines, atvariable price points, in all product categories. Department stores usually sellproducts including apparel, furniture, appliances, electronics, and additionally selectother lines of products such as paint,hardware, toiletries, cosmetics, photographicequipment, jewelery, toys, and sporting goods. Certain department stores arefurther classified as discount department stores. Discount department stores
commonly have central customer checkout areas, generally in the front area of thestore. Department stores are usually part of a retail chain of many stores situatedaround a country or several countries.
4. Shopping malls:A shopping mall or shopping centre is a building or set of buildings which containretail units, with interconnecting walkways enabling visitors to easily walk fromunit to unit.
5. Specialty Chains:
A Specialty Chains is numbers stores which are specialized in a specific range ofmerchandise and related items. Most stores have an extensive width and depth ofstock in the item that they specify in and provide high levels of service andexpertise. They differ from department stores and supermarkets which carry a widerange of merchandise.

distribution networks of brands extend right upto this point to stay in touch with
customer needs and preferences.
India like most other countries has a very large network of local stores. The retail
industry in rural India has typically two forms: "Haats" and "Melas". You will find
these in almost every village and locality. A lot of them function as Paan and
cigarette outlets with tea and coffee sometimes also offered. Besides this these
stores stock and offer small eats and soft drinks including biscuits, soft drinks,
chocolate, sweets, bread and baked products. Many of them also sell fruits like
bananas and a range of toiletries and cosmetics like soaps, shampoos, toothpastes
and some creams. These small stores cater to the needs of their own localpopulation and travelers who stop by for a smoke or a snack. A little larger format
is the neighborhood grocery store that focuses on grains, foods, snacks and
toiletries besides other home essentials.

This network is very large and spread all across India. It is not really a network
since each store is individual or family owned and has no connection with the
other. It does however represent a network since large consumer product
companies like Unilever, Procter & Gamble, Colgate-Palmolive, Cadbury, Coca
Cola, Pepsi and ITC uses them as their final point of retail to the consumer.
While it is commonly believed that the new retail chains will drive these small
stores out of business, reality points the other way and it is likely that these stores
will continue even in the next two decades of growth.
These small stores are very personal and have strong relationships with the local
population. They are points of news and connection. They offer credit to the local
population and help out in times of crisis. They also have a very goodunderstanding of requirements of the local population and have very low overheads
enabling them to offer the best price for their products.
3.2 Comparison between D-Mart &Unorganized (Kirana stores) Retailstores
When organized retail first started India, there was a huge debate on survival of
kirana stores at one end and success of supermarkets on the other. Both had
fierce supporters and politicians chipped in with their bit. Foreign direct

investment in multi brand retail is not permitted but Indian retailers have opened
organized retail outlets across the nation. Reliance, Big Bazaar are popular stores
while some like Subhiksha, Spencer sprang up only to shut later. Kirana stores
have survived this stage. Despite undoubted benefits of shopping at a
supermarket,
kirana stores have several advantages:
The biggest being location amid a residential area.
Its easy to stroll across and buy ones needs with no parking worries. Those not wanting to take this effort can simply order on phone and ask for
home delivery. They offer credit facility as well.
Usually, the shop location does not change for many years and storekeeperknows almost everyone in the family, their likes and dislikes.
When making a monthly shopping list, he may remind us of anything thatmay be missed out! Such small personal touches can make a big difference
in customer preferences of where to shop. Exchange of goods is quite easy
and billing is fast.
Disadvantages of kirana stores is that,
However accurate weights may be an issue as are conditions ofstorage.
May be price charge by them is high

Organized Retail store ( D-mart)
An organized retail outlet allows users to comfortably browse different
sections and compare size, price of products. At times, due to the scale of their
tie-ups and sourcing, products are offered at less than the MRP. Interesting
promotional schemes and store loyalty clubs entice people to repeatedly shop
there. Often one can buy several categories of products under one roof that may
not be possible at a kirana. Usually there is no one around (other than for
cosmetics) to answer specific queries about a product particularly new ones.
Some products are difficult to find in a supermarket like shampoo sachets or
drain cleaning powders or small quantity of boiled-sugar sweets.
People increasingly balance their purchases between these two formats. As
petrol prices continue rising, they may be averse to travelling to a
supermarket/hypermarket and prefer to buy from the local kirana instead.
Top global majors like Tesco, Wal Mart and CarreFour said to be waiting to

open their independent stores once the government policy changes. All vying to
grab attention of FMCG consumers! The market is huge and there maybe
something for everyone.

and items of conspicuous consumption most frequently.
Organized retail of late has seen a tremendous boom and is attracting morepeople to the malls.

Ch-7 recommendation We recommend to D-Mart expand their business to Gujarat in short term
and on national level in long time.
The staff behavior is good in D-mart but still they have to improve it. The D-mart have to Manage the goods in a proper Stands because some
goods are not properly arranged.
