brand would require fresh approval from the government.
15. FDI in Multi-Brand Retail
The government has also not defined the term Multi Brand. FDI in Multi Brand
retail
implies that a retail store with a foreign investment can sell multiple brands under
one roof.
In July 2010, Department of Industrial Policy and Promotion (DIPP), Ministry of
Commerce circulated a discussion paper [14] on allowing FDI in multi-brand retail.
The paper doesnt suggest any upper limit on FDI in multi-brand retail. If
implemented, it would open the doors for global retail giants to enter and
establish
their footprints on the retail landscape of India. Opening up FDI in multi-brand
retail
will mean that global retailers including Wal-Mart, Carrefour and Tesco can open
stores offering a range of household items and grocery directly to consumers in
the
same way as the ubiquitous kirana store.

processing, packaging, transportation, etc. will be created.

control food inflation.

from the huge number of indirect employment.
It will increase competition which is always beneficial
for the customer.
It will remove the middleman from the equation. It will
reduce costs which in turn will reduce prices.
