Launch strategy

Group 2

India currently enjoys just one-two per cent share in the global luxury market but it is the fifth most attractive market for international retailers. Fragmented and diversified consumer base in India is another significant challenge being faced by luxury retailers in India as high net worth individual (HNI) consumers are not easy to reach ASSOCHAM-KPMG study.

"There is a need for luxury brands to focus on expansion in the type and nature of products being offered and

increasingly adopt innovative marketing plans to tap rapidly evolving consumer behavioral trends," said Mr D.S. Rawat,

secretary general of ASSOCHAM
