An in-Depth Analysis of the Indian Market.


DUBLIN, Ireland -- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c56978) has announced the addition of "India Consumer Trends 2006-2007" to their offering

The Indian market, one of the most promising in the world, is fast evolving. So is the Indian consumer, across all socioeconomic strata, regions and town classes. Rising incomes, multiple income households, exposure to international lifestyles and media, easier financial credit and an upbeat economy are enhancing aspirations and consumption. In these fast changing times, it becomes imperative for companies reaching out to the Indian market, to catch the pulse of the Indian consumer. India Consumer Trends 2006 is a step in that direction - to gain a better understanding of the Indian consumer behaviour and get key insights into issues like: What does the Indian Consumer's shopping basket consist of? What is it that the Indian consumer is buying - Is it Apparel? Books? Music? Or Durables or Grocery? How is she paying for her purchases? How much is she willing to travel to get one-stop shopping options? Is she discount driven enough to wait for promotions or markdowns? Also, how different is the Delhi consumer from the one in Kolkata or Chennai, and how different are they from those in Lucknow or Ludhiana? Of course, then there is the question of an overall shopping behaviour. The India Consumer Trends - 2006[TM] is an attempt to bridge these gaps and is a resource that brings together information pertaining per·tain
