The Indian Retail Market is worth a whooping 10,00,000 crores. Of the total Retail Market, major contribution of more than 95% comes from the unorganized sector. The balance is contributed by the Organized retail sector, which is still in nascent stage but growing steadily since last decade.

The first retailers in India include Bata, Pantaloon, Bombay Dyeing, Spencers, Nilgiris. The current retail scenario is controlled by the likes of Shoppers’ Stop, Branded Outlets, Big Bazaars and the likes.

The difference between the organized and unorganized retail sectors in US and some of the Far East Asian countries are pretty low unlike in India. With the advent of some big players in the field of retail in India, the gap is likely to be reduced in the coming years. The difference between them is 85:15 in favor of the organized sector in US and 81:19 in Taiwan.
