Final fdi in retail ppt

Editor's Notes

• #18: Varied window displat : now a days retailers know that if your product is dosplayed properly acc. to the culture of the state you are operating in , will definaltey help you
• #27: Count the country and then speak on the 4 things showed here
• #52: This is not all there is still more
• #78: In 2881, India had the highest shop density in the world, with 11 outlets for every 1,888people.. The high density restricts their scope of expansion, and thereby ofupgrading. This also means that, except in the case of severely segmented markets, thissector stands little chance of competing against large retailing corporations operatingwith economies of scale.
• #79: It will bring out many positive changes i.e. improvement in supply chain management. It is noticed that 35-40% of the agriculture produce perishes every year due to poor infrastructure in India and there are only 6522 cold storages in India mainly used for potatoes.Investment in technologies and infrastructure by the retail corporations will act as a boon for our economy.These org will come in with technical know how and expertise and will train indian manpower and hone their skills as suitable for the industry.Moreover small players who have already been working with Internationalchains like Wal-Mart/Carrefour in India have benefitted a lot by manufacturing their private label products & also showcasing ourproducts in their stores by reaching end consumer directly at competitiveprices which would otherwise launching and building a new brand is a task in itself.It is understood that MNC that invest in retail in india would also source indian goods to their international outlets in a big way, thus provide a boost to indian exports. Indian retail chains would get integrated with global supply chain since Fdi will bring in technology, quality standards and marketing.
• #82: technological know how, soil quality improvement, pesticide and fertilizer usage,grading, sorting, capabilities and increasing availability of low interest credit forfarmers.
• #84: After observing the opportunities and challenges, the views of different org. and the benefits that are likely to take place in indian economy..the panel recommends that fdi in multi brand retail should be allowed but a cap of 49% should be imposed to protect the interest of small and medium size retailers and give them a breathing space to adjust themselves to the new environment and also work to bring in their competitive advantage. China opened the fdi 49% in 1992 and has been immensely benefitted due transfer of technical know how and increased exports there are currently appx 40 foreign players contributing to org retail sector. Now, its time for india to open the borders and be benefitted by the retail growth.A major proportion of initial FDI should be invested in developing back endinfrastructure. For e.g. the foreign partners need to tell the total amount thatthey will be investing in next five years. Out of these atleast 80% of the FDIhas to be made in initial three years.We talked of large percentage of agriculture produce getting wasted annually. Well investment in technology and supply chain will surely prevent such wastages consequently curb the supply caused inflation which is currently hovering around 15.46%.
• #85: It is well noted that urban migration has created a significant excess of labour in India's largeand medium-sized cities. Retail jobs can offer a viable career opportunity for the urbanunemployed who may lack in formal education and training, just as they can for those inrural areas. Rather than stipulating employment conditionalities that may obstructemployment generation in urban areas, alternative incentive structures may be used toencourage companies to train and employ youth in the areas in which retail outlets arelocated - both rural and urban.Additionally, if incentive structures or conditionalities are imposed, they should be mandatedupon both domestic and foreign funded retail chains equally.Furthermore, it is being discussed that retailers should be restricted to larger citiesof 10 lakh or more. This point is in direct conflict with a stipulation requiring the hiring ofrural youth, who will likely be unable to travel to their place of employment in a consistent,cost-effective manner.
• #87: And u can well see difference in the share of spending in these 3 categories by rural and urban households.
• #88: Retail investments and operations are typically executed with local and regionalconsiderations in mind, so a national legal framework cannot truly be effective. State andlocal licensing requirements are sufficient to protect small retailers, and otherwise regulatethe industry.Implementing new regulations will likely hold back growth in this sector, as well as weaken itsAttendant benefits on SME suppliers, consumers and supply chain investment. Rather thanimpose such regualtion, the government may consider policies and incentives that directlybenefit small retailers. These incentives can include, for example, access to low-cost capital,training on quality and technical standards, and infrastructure investment in their ownbusinesses.
