Retail industry – Second largest employer ( with an

estimated 35 million people engaged by the industry). The Union Cabinet on 24th Nov 2011 proposed to

increase FDI in multi brand to 51%.However government was put to hold after strong opposition from several political parties , including NDA and Trinamool Congress. New policy will allow multi brand foreign retailers

to set up shop only in cities with a population of more than 10 lakhs as per the 2011 census.( there are 53 such cities) The single brand retail FDI limit was increased

from 51% to 100%

FDI in retail is going to attract many foreign players but the GOI must welcome them with a talented pool of Human resources

Protection must be given to small and medium retailers as retailing is their source of livelihood

The government must properly discuss about the pros and cons of allowing 51% FDI in multi brand retail with a law in place to control unfair competition

FDI will control inflation rate since it will prevent the farm wastage which at present is around 30%-40% of total produce
