Introduction
Shopping malls contribute to business more significantly than traditional markets which were
viewed as simple convergence of supply and demand. Shopping malls attract buyers and sellers,
and induce customers providing enough time to make choices as well as a recreational means of
shopping. However, competition between malls, congestion of markets and traditional shopping
centers has led mall developers and management to consider alternative methods to build
excitement with customers. This study examines the impact of growing congestion of shopping
mall in urban areas on shopping conveniences and shopping behavior. Based on the survey of
urban shoppers, the study analyzes the cognitive attributes of the shoppers towards attractiveness
of shopping malls and intensity of shopping. The results of the study reveal that ambiance of
shopping malls, assortment of stores, sales promotions and comparative economic gains in the
mall attract higher customer traffic to the malls.
Shopping malls are an emerging trend in the global arena. The first thing that comesin our mind
about the shopping malls is that it is a big enclosed building housing a variety of shops or
products. According to historical evidences shopping malls came into existence in the middle
ages, though it was not called so. The concept of departmental stores came up in the 19th century
with the Industrial Revolution.Consumers wanted a better shopping experience and this demand
gave rise to the emergence of shopping malls in India.

INTRODUCTION 2 CONSUMER BEHAVIOUR
Consumer behaviour is the study of when, why, how, and where people do or do not buy a product. It
blends elements from psychology, sociology, social anthropology and economics. It attempts to
understand the buyer decision making process, both individually and in groups. It studies characteristics
of individual consumers such as demographics and behavioural variables in an attempt to understandpeople's wants. It also tries to assess influences on the consumer from groups such as family, friends,
reference groups, and society in general.
Customer behaviour study is based on consumer buying behaviour, with the customer playing the three
distinct roles of user, payer and buyer. Relationship marketing is an influential asset for customer
behaviour analysis as it has a keen interest in the re-discovery of the true meaning of marketing through
the re-affirmation of the importance of the customer or buyer. A greater importance is also placed on
consumer retention, customer relationship management, personalisation, customisation and one-to-
one marketing. Social functions can be categorized into social choice and welfare functions.
Each method for vote counting is assumed as social function but if Arrows possibility theorem is used
for a social function, social welfare function is achieved. Some specifications of the social functions are
decisiveness, neutrality, anonymity, monotonicity, unanimity, homogeneity and weak and strong Pareto
optimality. No social choice function meets these requirements in an ordinal scale simultaneously. The
most important characteristic of a social function is identification of the interactive effect of alternatives
and creating a logical relation with the ranks. Marketing provides services in order to satisfy customers.
With that in mind, the productive system is considered from its beginning at the production level, to the
end of the cycle, the consumer (Kioumarsi et al., 2009).

³Consumer shopping behavior in malls with large scale entertainment centers.´
By- Talpade, Salil,haynes, Joel
Summary:- The idea of adding a major entertainment center to a shopping mall has been gaining
popularity over the past few years. Several of these so called 'mega-malls' have been constructed
8/7/2019 4th sem (1)
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/4th-sem-1 8/68
in various regions of the country, with substantial square footage allocated to large-scale
entertainment centers. In terms of shopping center patronage, Ballenger et al. (1977) found that
some consumers placed the greatest value on convenience and economic attributes including
convenience to home, accessibility, and the presence of services such as banks and restaurants.
Others, however emphasized recreational attributes including atmosphere, fissionability, variety
of stores and merchandise. However, as mentioned earlier, there has been very little academic
research on mega-malls and the effects of entertainment centers in such malls on consumer
behavior. Most of the research conducted on this relatively recent phenomenon has been done by
either mall developers in specific malls (e.g., Stiller & Smith, 1992) or by private research
agencies which provide a fee-based information service (e.g., U.L.I. Publications). These studies
have primarily focused upon defining the trading area of the mall, the consumer characteristics,
and the extent of patronage at various stores and entertainment centers.
³Growing Shopping Malls and Behavior of Urban Shoppers´
By-Rajagopal
Summary:- Shopping malls contribute to business more significantly than traditional markets
which were viewed as simple convergence of supply and demand. Shopping malls attract buyers
and sellers, and induce customers providing enough time to make choices as well as a
recreational means of shopping. However, competition between malls, congestion of markets and
traditional shopping centers has led mall developers and management to consider alternative
methods to build excitement with customers. This study examines the impact of growing
congestion of shopping mall in urban areas on shopping conveniences and shopping behavior.
Based on the survey of urban shoppers, the study analyzes the cognitive attributes of the
shoppers towards attractiveness of shopping malls and intensity of shopping. The results of the
8/7/2019 4th sem (1)
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/4th-sem-1 9/68
study reveal that ambiance of shopping malls, assortment of stores, sales promotions and
comparative economic gains in the mall attract higher customer traffic to the malls.
³Shopping Malls: A New Shopping Experience´
Summary:- The case let deals with the development of organized retailing in India in the form of
shopping malls. It looks into the reasons for the growth of shopping malls in India. With the
changing shopping needs and aspirations, consumers are finding it easier to shop at malls where
a wide choice of merchandise is available under one roof. The case let also delves into the
growth of specialty malls and the challenges faced by shopping malls in India.
³ Shopping Malls Facing Consumer Decision Making Style´
Summary:- Retailers and marketers often seek to learn how and why people shop. The consumer
decision- making process is a complex phenomenon. The purchase of goods or services includes
a number of factors that could affect each decision. Decision making is more complex and even
more important for consumers today than in the past. Consumers are besieged by advertising,
news articles, and direct mailings that provide an abundance of information, much of it with
mixed messages. In addition, increases in the number and variety of goods, stores, and shopping
malls, and the availability of multicomponent products and electronic purchasing capabilities
have broadened the sphere for consumer choice and have complicated decision making. In the
extant consumer behavior literature, most studies assume that all consumers approach shopping
with certain decision-making traits that combine to form a consumer's decision-making styles.
Academicians and researchers have long been interested in identifying these underlying decision
styles of shoppers. For example, consumers are identified as economic shoppers, personalizing
shoppers, ethical shoppers, apathetic shoppers, store- loyal shoppers, recreational shoppers,
convenience shoppers, price-oriented shoppers, brand- loyal shoppers, name-conscious shoppers,
8/7/2019 4th sem (1)
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/4th-sem-1 10/68
problem-solving shoppers, quality shoppers, fashion shoppers, brand conscious shoppers and
impulse shoppers.
³Malls See Change in Consumer Behavior´
Summary:- In the last ten years, many malls have donned the trappings of community centers.
Mall owners have gone to great lengths to lure consumers in and keep them in, installing free or
low-cost amenities like jogging routes, restaurants, movie theaters and merry-go-rounds.In the
recession, however, these attractions are now becoming more popular than the retail stores. Sales
in many mall stores in New York, New Jersey and Connecticut have declined. That said, food
courts, play areas and other thoroughfares are still welcoming visitors. Parents need to entertain
their children, teenagers need a hang out, and adults meet in shopping malls to socialize indoors.
Mall owners in New York, New Jersey and Connecticut, like their counterparts across the
country, have installed wave-riding machines and offer laser tag, paintball and ice skating. They
have also organized concerts and karaoke contests, temporary-tattoo parties and social clubs for
children, and they have begun turning vast and empty stores into community theaters and health
clinics.
³Adding Bricks to Clicks:The Effects of Store Openings on Sales through Direct Channels´
By- Jill Avery, Mary Caravella, John Deighton and Thomas Steenburgh
Summary:- Consider a retailer who operates both brick-and-mortar stores and direct channels
such as direct mail catalogs and an Internet Web site. What effect does the opening of a new
retail store have on direct channel sales in the retail trading area surrounding the store? Does the
8/7/2019 4th sem (1)
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/4th-sem-1 11/68
existence of more opportunities for consumer contact with the brand increase the retailer's direct
sales, or does intra-brand, inter-channel competition erode the retailer's direct sales? Does
consumer response to the retailer's brand evolve over time, perhaps as consumers go through
some process of trial-and-error learning about the relative merits of stores and direct channels, or
is the impact of the new store relatively discrete? Does the answer depend on whether consumers
in the retail trading area have had the opportunity for previous experience with the brand's
stores?
³Shopping day and night: Area malls extend hours to satisfy the schedules of early birds
and night owls´
By- Andrea K. Walker
Summary:- Some shopping malls are taking a cue from their big-box retail competitors by
opening their doors earlier and leaving them unlocked a little bit later. Many retail consultants
believe General Growth Properties' decision last month to expand its hours at most of its more
than 200 malls across the country -- including several in the Baltimore area -- could mark the
beginning of a trend for the nation's shopping centers. The Chicago-based company is adding a
few hours on weekend mornings and evenings in hopes of drawing more shoppers who say they
want the added convenience. It's a departure, however, from the normally staid world of
shopping malls, where hours typically change only during the busy holiday shopping season. But
some retail consultants said fewer hours aren't the reason shopping malls keep losing market
share to the rest of the retail world
³Consumer behaviour and retailing decisions´
8/7/2019 4th sem (1)
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/4th-sem-1 12/68
By- S. Ramesh Kumar
Summary:- Decision making with regard to retail outlet selection is very similar to consumer
decision-making on brands where the consumer goes through a process starting from identifying
needs to post-purchase issues. There are a few interesting and important dimensions associated
with consumer behaviour and retail outlet selection.Marketers need in-depth knowledge about
the various dimensions which link retailing and consumer behaviour. There is research required
to handle retail decisions in a competitive context. McDonald's found that a major chunk of its
consumers decide to eat a few minutes before they make the purchase decisions and hence it is
building small outlets in large supermarkets such as Wal-Mart and Home Depot.
There are three fundamental patterns which a consumer can follow and they could be:
(I) Brand first, retail outlet second
(ii) Retail outlet first, brand second
(iii) Brand and retail outlet simultaneously.
Research Methodology
For finding out various details of our project we have to find the various factors which is making
the shopping malls so attractive to the customer. is it the huge variety attainability, effortless
business, service variety ambience, active marketing and cleanliness . We have to also find out
the what is the impact of these malls on the small retail shops. We have to visit various shopping
8/7/2019 4th sem (1)
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/4th-sem-1 13/68
malls and by observation method we have to find out the various factors which is making these
malls so attractive to the customer, we also need to interview the customer and ask them about
their choice and preferences like what are the thing they like about the shopping malls that
includes (variety, price shopping environment, service, cleanliness, attainability) etc. And for
finding out the impact of these malls on the small retailers we need to interview some small
retailer and know their opinion and position.

Primary data
8/7/2019 4th sem (1)
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/4th-sem-1 14/68
Primary data is the specific information collected by the person who is doing the research. It can
be obtained through clinical trials, case studies, true experiments and randomized controlled
studies. This information can be analyzed by other experts who may decide to test the validity of
the data by repeating the same experiments.Primary data can also be retrospective, interventional
and observational in nature. Retrospective primary data gathers information about past
conditions or behaviors.Interventional primary data may be gathered to see the effect of a new
product or services.Observational studies gather primary data by means of case studies such as
the work done by naturalists like Jane Good all on chimpanzees in the wild.
Survey Approach
We collected primary data through sample survey from the selected elements in malls and super
markets. So for this purpose we have used the most popular tool of primary data collection
through direct communication with respondents. The tools we used are questionnaires. After
fulfillingthe questionnaires we asked some verbal question also. According to their response we
are able to recollect some more information regarding this study and survey.Convenience
sampling is used for this study Convenience sampling is used in exploratoryresearch where the
researcher is interested in getting an inexpensive approximation of thetruth. As the name implies,
the sample is selected because they are convenient. This nonprobability method is often used
during preliminary research efforts to get a gross estimateof the results, without incurring the
cost or time required to select a random sample.
Exploratory method
8/7/2019 4th sem (1)
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/4th-sem-1 15/68
Exploratory research is a type of research conducted for a problem that has not been clearly
defined. Exploratory research helps determine the best research design, data collection method
and selection of subjects. It should draw definitive conclusions only with extreme caution. Given
its fundamental nature, exploratory research often concludes that a perceived problem does not
actually exist.
Questionnaire
Under the Questionnaire we have 16 Question and each Question related to different-different
factor(purchasing or buying at the shopping malls, pattern of the selling, rang and product price,
offer, parking facilities, employee behavior) of shopping malls.
Sample collection
For collecting the sample we had visited many shopping malls and super market. What we had
done their wesimplyapproach the people who came out from shopping mall.
Sample Method-
Random Sample method-
A random sample is one chosen by a method involving an unpredictable component. Random
sampling can also refer to taking a number of independent observations from the same
probability distribution, without involving any real population. The sample usually is not a
representative of the population from which it was drawn² this random variation in the results
is known as sampling error.
8/7/2019 4th sem (1)
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/4th-sem-1 16/68
y A simple random sample is selected so that all samples of the same size have an equal
chance of being selected from the population.
y A self-weighting sample, also known as an EPSEM (Equal Probability of Selection
Method) sample, is one in which every individual, or object, in the population of interest
has an equal opportunity of being selected for the sample. Simple random samples are
self-weighting.
y Stratified sampling involves selecting independent samples from a number of
subpopulations, group or strata within the population. Great gains in efficiency are
sometimes possible from judicious stratification.
y Cluster sampling involves selecting the sample units in groups. For example, a sample
of telephone calls may be collected by first taking a collection of telephone lines and
collecting all the calls on the sampled lines. The analysis of cluster samples must take
into account the intra-cluster correlation which reflects the fact that units in the same
cluster are likely to be more similar than two units picked at random.
(Here I have chosen simple random sample method for collecting the data)
Sample Size
We have collected 50 samples from the population of different- different area of Hyderabad and
from our friend.

SUGGESTIONS
8/7/2019 4th sem (1)
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/4th-sem-1 61/68
Suggestions:
y Small retailers need protection and policy support in order to compete with organized
Retail what is required is a more comprehensive policy, which addresses the needs of
small retailers, especially in terms of access to institutional credit and knows how to
upgrade their businesses.
y At the shopping malls there should be some improvement in parking facility because
most of the customers are facing big problem with parking.
y In addition, the Government should also abandon the moves to permit FDI in retailtrade
through the back door, as in the case of the joint venture between Wal-Mart andBharti
whereby the former proposes to operate in the cash-and-carry segment while thelatter in
the front-end.
y A system of licensing should be introduced for organized retail. Any retail outlet with
floor area over an appropriate minimum floor area should require prior license from local
authorities (city corporations or municipalities). Corporate entities should not be allowed
to operate retail outlets below the specified minimum floor area
