Over the last few years, Pune has occupied an important place in the Indian Retail spread. What was once considered a quiet town for retired people has now become one of the most sought after places to settle down in the state of Maharashtra, given its proximity to Mumbai. The proliferation of colleges, B-Schools and of course the booming ITES industry is a no brainer for the obvious choice that is Pune.
Consumption patterns have been on the rise in the past 15-18 months ever after the lockdowns were lifted. Between Apr. ’20 – Mar. ’21, many people from Pune had migrated to their hometowns. Compelled by hybrid working and reopening of schools and colleges, “consumers” are back in town. The half-a-dozen top malls are running full with their occupancy leading to a severe rush for brands to penetrate deeper in the city.
