Abstract: Retail industry is one of the biggest sector and second largest employment provider after agriculture in India. Due to easy access and unconditional knowledge requirement for opening up a retail store/ outlet, the presence of hawkers, street vendors, small kiryana stores can be observed easily in India. There is not any requirement to have a degree in retail management and any specified criteria to open up a retail store. Therefore small unorganized retailers capture the bigger share of retail in India. Both organized and unorganized retail stores co-exist in India. Organized retail segment is peeping in and making its position at a very faster pace in the sector.
Keywords:Organized retail, Unorganized retail, FDI.
