Top 5 Must-Visit Shopping Malls In India

April 21, 2016   |   Ankit Rajdutta

India's economy is booming and one of the biggest contributors to this growth is the country's retail sector. According to a report by Boston Consulting Group, the retail market in India is expected to reach the $1-trillion mark by 2020, up from $600 billion in 2015. This rapid growth is driven by the coming of international brands into the market here, making the sector more and more organised. A rise in the number of brands across categories has also led to setting up of malls that are on a par with global standards.

These malls are a one-stop destination for both retail and service needs. Whether you are planning to shop, catch a movie, get your kids to a play zone or even host a family dinner, you can do it all at malls.

Premium location, a perfect mix of labels and active involvement of owners help malls establish themselves as a brand to reckon with.
