The retail market in the country is expected to be worth over Rs 18,10,000 crore by 2010. And organised retail is likely to exceed Rs 2,30,000 crore (at constant prices), at about 13% of the pie, according to India Retail Report (2009 edition).RS Roy, editorial director, India Retail Report 2009 said, “Our research estimates the Indian retail market in 2007 at Rs 13,30,000 crore, growing annually at 10.8%. The share of organised Retail in 2007 was estimated to be only 5.9%, or Rs 78,300 crore. Modern retail witnessed a growth rate of 42.4% in 2007 and we envisage it to maintain a faster growth rate over the next three years. Increase in consumer spending is and will push the economy into a growth-and-liberalisation mode.”In the overall retail pie, food and grocery was the dominant category with 59.5% share, valued at Rs 7,92,000 crore, followed by clothing and accessories with a 9.9% share at Rs 1,31,300 crore.

Growth in the health and beauty care has been optimistic, though the organised segment growth of 57.5% in 2007 was slightly lower as compared with 59.1% in 2006. In the furnishings and furniture retail category, the overall market grew at 7% in 2007 as against 3.2% in 2006 - thanks to the housing sector boom. The organised segment also grew faster at 29.7% in 2007 as against 23.1% the previous year. At constant prices, the overall food and grocery retail market grew slightly higher at 2.3% in 2007 as compared with 2.2% in the two previous years. The report suggests that the organised retail segment in this category is simmering in the true sense - a 50% growth in 2007 as against 42.9% in 2006, and lot more fireworks can be expected going ahead. Valued at Rs 9,000 crore, this organised market constitutes barely 1.1% of the total food and grocery retail market.
