FDI in Indian Retail Sector

by Véronique Queffélec on décembre 17, 2012

fdi-in-indian-retail-sector

The Indian retail market is dominated by the highly decentralized unorganized sector. The small retail outlets, most of them family-owned businesses, account for about 95 per cent of the sales. The creaky, old distribution system that India has lived with is grossly inefficient. The Indian farmer typically gets only a third of what the final consumer pays, instead of the two-thirds that his counterparts do in countries that have organized retailing. India is the second largest producer of fruits and vegetables in the world, but almost 30 per cent of these go waste for want of storage and processing facilities. It is generally agreed that the bulk of the Indian economy would gain, significantly, from the emergence of a well-capitalized retail industry. The organized retail industry is one of the sunrise sectors with huge growth potential.

Paris Insight: French presidential election: an overview of the first round’s results and challenges

The left block far ahead from the right one

The strategy of the Socialist candidate starts as planned. He won the first round with 28,6% of the votes, less than 2 points ahead of Nicolas Sarkozy (27,2 %). This is the first presidential election that registers such a weak score for the Right (extreme Right excluded), a non-surprise that confirms the “anti-sarkozyst” movement advocated all along the campaign.
The scores of the left candidates total up 43.8% of votes when the right stays behind with a difference of more than 5 points (38.2%), a differential which could prove decisive: to win, the incumbent president must assemble most of the voters of the Centre and the extreme Right, a very complicated gamble…

Interview de Philippe Latimier du Clésieux par Véronique Queffélec

Activité à très forte « valeur ajoutée » L’industrie du luxe pèse plusieurs centaines de milliards d’euros. Y sévissent au coude à coude les plus prestigieuses maisons de Paris, Milan, Londres et New York.
