This growth prediction comes amid a notable shift in consumer behaviour, with consumers preferring to spend on experiences such as travel and entertainment over traditional product purchases.

Despite potential short-term challenges, the organized retail market in India has consistently grown, largely driven by rapid growth in the middle class and the entry of large International Fashion and food chains.

To ensure continued growth, retailers must refine their delivery models, leverage AI analytics, and implement aggressive cost management strategies.

Furthermore, the report highlights that Indian consumers are trading up for better products, driving demand for premium goods.

Spending by privileged households earning more than ₹20 lakh annually is significantly higher on luxury products such as cosmetics, air conditioners, microwave ovens, water purifiers, beauty and health services, cars, and leisure travel.

The report revealed that store growth will continue, and consumption in cities across all levels will rise, driven by ongoing urbanization.
