International Journal of Management, 7(4), 2016, pp. 01– 16. http://www.iaeme.com/ijm/issues.asp?JType=IJM&VType=7&IType=4 INTRODUCTION In recent times, The Indian retail industry is expanding and diversifying across the country, thereby boosting the demand in good service to the customers as well. The Indian retail industry has come of age and the demand for modern shopping centers and shopping complexes, which offer shopping, food and entertainment under one roof, is on the rise. A sizeable market of young working population, hefty pay- packets, increase in the number of nuclear families in urban areas, higher disposable income, growing consumer aspirations, western influences and rising demand for luxury items are few of the factors that have spurred the growth of organised retail in India. Earlier research in this area stated that unorganised retailers, manufacturers and intermediaries have started feeling the competitive impact of organized retail through both price and payment pressures. With this steep competition it is necessary to find out impact of organised retailers on unorganised retailers, manufacturers, their employees, customers and intermediaries. Indian retail industry is divided into Organised retailing and Unorganised retailing. Organised retailing includes corporate backed Hyper market, Supermarkets, Departmental stores, Cash and Carry stores. Unorganised retailing is traditional formats of low cost retailing Local Kirana shops, General stores, pavement vendors, Fruits, vegetable and Food stores. According to A T Kearney report (2011), organized retail accounts for 7% of India’s roughly $435 billion retail market and is expected to reach 20% by 2020. India is treated as a high potential market with accelerated retail market growth of 15 to 20 percent expected in the coming 5 years, supported by a GDP growth of 6 to 7 percent. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPORTANCE OF STUDY Mukherjee et. al. (2011) found that the share of retail trade in GDP is approximately 11-12 per cent. In 2010, the Indian retail market was valued at $435 billion, of which the share of organised or modern retail was 7 per cent i.e. $30.05 billion. The sector is expected to grow to 20 per cent by 2020 (A.T. Kearney , 2011). Supporting Government policies, FDI in retail, growing income and higher consumption pattern of middle class wooing big retailers to open their outlets in India. (Handa & Grover, 2012) stated that by 2016-17 Indian Retail Business size will be US$1011bn which was US$322 bn in 2006-07. This shows that Indian Retail Business Market is http://www.iaeme.com/IJM/index.asp 2 editor@iaeme.com
  3. A study of Economical impact of Entry of organized retailers on unorganized retailers with special reference to Maharashtra state growing. Kumar P. (2013) in stated that food and grocery retailing is estimated to contribute to around 50% (Rs 3500-4000 billion) of the total sales from retailing. It is necessary to find out whether such trends will continue in future. In a competitive environment Manufacturers, intermediaries and employees are also observing changes and feeling the impact when organised and unorganised businesses are competing with each other. It is observed that customers buy from organised as well as unorganized retail stores. Intermediaries and manufacturers are feeling the competitive impact of organized retailing. The retailing industry is generating huge employment opportunities in the all functional areas viz. Store Operations, Merchandising, Purchase, Logistics, Marketing, Publicity, Accounting and control. Singhal (2010) analysed that an estimated 90+ million jobs will be created over the next five years, of which almost 50 per cent are expected to be in the services sector (45 million). With new policy on the flow of FDI is expected to be more in infrastructure development. Supporting to central government policies of FDI in organised retail, Maharashtra has given nod for FDI in organised retail in state. STATEMENT OF PROBLEM In past few years cities in Maharashtra observed growth of organized retailers. Many people expressed the concern having negative impact of organised retailers on unorganized retailers.

The secondary data is collected by analyzing International and National journals, articles from books, magazines and newspapers, websites and various government policies. LITERATURE REVIEW Many research work identified benefits earned by consumers, government, small scale industries and also to unorganized retail sector. Mishra & Dash (2008) analysed that Organised retail has changed not only the Indian traditional retailing structure but also the consumption behavior. In the article (Singh & Bose, 2011) identified that in India with nearly 80 percent of the market controlled by tiny family-run shops. Organised retail makes up only 6 percent of the market. John, Clark and Hojong (cited in Manju & Malik, 2012) found out that helpfulness of sales person, friendliness, quality level, merchandise selection and exchange, value for money, location of store etc are used to measure customer satisfaction. A research outline of PwC Research (2011) stated that the 700 million Indians residing in rural India are an opportunity that retailers cannot ignore. India has a large population of middle-class of 75 million households or 300 million individuals. Joseph et al.(2008 ) in their study did not find any adverse impact of organized retail on intermediaries. Manju & Malik, (2012) highlighted that as majority visitors are of young group and their needs to taken into account while deciding market strategy.

  5. A study of Economical impact of Entry of organized retailers on unorganized retailers with special reference to Maharashtra state T Kearney report (2013) analysed that high operating costs, low bargaining power with vendors, heavy discounting to improve sales have affected profits and expansion plans. Janardan (2014) discussed the need to optimize their supply chains and item management processes. A study by Raut & Dash (2011) analyzed various major factors that define consumer buying behavior like accessibility factors. Similar findings are revealed by (Srivastava & Matta, 2012 ). Clement & Kodimela (2011) examined the factors that influence the customers switching behavior to organized retail. According to Sorescu. et al (2011), Retailers are often directly engaged with large number of end consumers which creates opportunity and challenges for building stronger relations with their customer base. Prabha Devi & Sellappan (2009) focused on impact of service quality at retail stores. The quality services that are considered to satisfy customers today may be different tomorrow. Dubinsky, Skinner & Steven (1984) examined relationships among perceived job characteristics, job satisfaction, motivation, organizational commitment, role perceptions, and job performance of retail salespeople. Coelho, Augusto & Lages (2011) identifies indirect effect of job complexity & work relationships on creativity. They tried to find out impact of contextual factors on front line managers. According to report on Skill Development (FICCI Report, 2010), there will be huge demand of skilled manpower in shop floor executive, back store operations and merchandising. Sahoo & Das (2011) discussed about employee empowerment for competitive advantage. Mukherjee & Goyal (2012) explores that increments in the organised retail outlets are linked to the performance of the employees, while in the unorganised retail outlets they are linked to employee’s years of experience. According to the (Economic Survey 2013, 2013) , The traditional retailers are giving a strong competition to organised retailers and the decision to permit foreign retailers to open stores in the country will not affect small players in India. IMAP Report (2010) highlighted that increase in global online population and localization strategy promotes online retail spending. This increases cross border online purchases. The study by Maki & Kokko (2012) identifies impact of automated processes in retail on customers. Maheshwari (2004) stated that infrastructure such as power, transport and telecommunication and water supply are important for economic growth. DATA ANALYSIS The data analysis comprises of 3 different sections based on the objectives of the research work. which are  Direct and indirect economic impact on unorganized business  Impact on employment and income in both organized and unorganized retail sector  Increasing and decreasing trend in local business activities Impact on unorganised retailers http://www.iaeme.com/IJM/index.asp 5 editor@iaeme.com
