Wal-Mart India: Lead to Margin Pressures

With Wal-Marts entry into India, the retail landscape is definitely going to change. There is going to be an increased demand for prime properties and manpower. The retail industry is already seeing intense pressure in both property prices and an acute shortage of talented manpower. Now with Wal-Marts entry, the next thing to take a beating would be the miniscule margins retailers make. Wal-Mart has always been low priced and if the same philosphy is adopted in India it can gives its competitors like Pantaloons Big Bazaar,  Reliance Fresh, FoodWorld and others a run for thier money. Local players like Margin Free Market in Kerela and Shubiksha in Tamilnadu have used the low price stategy and have maintained good market share. In a price concious market like India, a Low Price Strategy in a modern retail format will be the ideal recipe for success.

Shares of Pantaloons has already taken a beating of about 1.8% yesterday when Wal-Mart and Bharti's announcement was made.

The quality of the comments is very cheap as it contains a number of grammatical errors and seems, nobody has edited the same. This is the height of negligance on the part of Wall-mart.
