5. RETAIL TRADE : BACKBONE
OF INDIAN ECONOMY
 After agriculture, Retail trade provides employment to maximum number of
persons.
1.25 crore shops - employed 4 crore people.
 contributes 10% - 11% of our country’s GDP.
 Sophisticated techn & more investment is not required in retail trade.
Small Retail shops provide more employment then large chain of Retail
stores.
There is no gestation period. Hence business starts from day one.

6. FAILURE OF LOCAL GOVERNMENT
 Traders are being ignored by the government.
 lagged in infrastructure, irrigation power etc.- require huge investment- govt.
feels -traders incompetent to serve.
 So, instead of development of such areas- the govt. handed over retail trade to
foreigners.
 FOREIGNERS - more dearer than INDIANS.
 Anti – trader laws were designed.

7. THE CRITERIA FOR FDI
 In 1991-92, the then Finance Minister and present Prime Minister Dr.
Manmohan Singh referred to certain criteria for allowing FDI in India.
They were :
1. Establishment of basic industries requiring huge capital and advanced
sophisticated technology.
2. Infrastructure projects like electricity generation road building etc.
3. Projects which would generate employment.

8. ADVANTAGES OF FDI
 Increase investment level and thereby income & employment.
 Increase tax revenue of government.
 Facilitates transfer of technology.
 Encourage managerial revolution through professional management.
 Increase exports and reduce import requirements.
 Increase competition and break domestic monopolies.
 Improves quality and reduces cost of inputs.

9. 100% FDI PERMITTED IN INDIA
 Engineering & Manufacturing sectors.
 Tourism & hotels.
 Advertising & Film industry.
 Roads & Highways, Ports and Harbors.
 Industrial model towns/industrial parks.

 Power generation (hydro-electric, coal/lignite, oil or gas based).

10. NOW ITS TURN FOR INDIA
 Kamal Nath, Union Urban Development and Poverty Alleviation Minister
said, Advantages of having backend and cold-chains formation, sourcing, quality
standardisation, etc are going to mainly help our agricultural sector.
 Montek Singh Ahluwalia, Deputy Chairman of the Planning Commission, FDI is not a
threat to small retailers and it will create efficiency in supply chain infrastructure.
 So that , Wastage will fall, leading to lower prices of primary commodities. In
India, 30% of fruits and vegetables, and 5-7% of grains are wasted between harvest
and consumption.
 Restructuring to create entities to work in the current framework would need a lot of
thought, but managing an efficient supply chain, considering that only nine States
have given approval, will pose a big challenge, according to Rachna Nath.

11. FDI- A BIG BENEFIT
 The FDI in multi-brand retail - benefit the farmers who will get a fair price by
selling their products directly to the retail companies.
 This step will increase prices paid to farmers, reduce prices for
customers, reduce agricultural wastage and create thousands of jobs.
 As many as 40 % of vegetables are rotting as there is no backend. Multi-brand
retail is a model that will work and the advantages outweigh the risks.

12. CONTRACT FARMING
COLLECTION OF TO OWN FACTORY
AGRICALTURE PRODUCTS
TO CUSTOMER
TO OWN DEPT. STORE

13. CONCLUSION
o If the FDI is in the limit and the in the control of our government, then it will
surely benefit our country.
 And its also a great privilege that “India” is the second attractors of
foreigners.
 Retail traders will also improve their standards
and the channelization.
 This could be a big benefit, given that Indian retail chains have so far lacked
the capital and incentive to invest in supply chains.
