India No.1 in Retail theft

Guys, it is common problem all over the world. Few of the thefts are by their own staffs and few of them are through online purchase and few of them are shop lifting. Be aware that It is not only happening ONLY in India. All the retailers are facing these problems in this world and they are trying to minimize this as much as possible by taking various measures like tightening their security system, checking the credit card details for online purchase...etc.  

yup i know about in that Indian top retail Marketing

oh my good it is terrible figur but it also a human nature 

Yup i had already learnt about it that India tops in this . 

Please let me know the reference from where you got this news. Organised retail revolution is just setting trend in India. If you know the span of the country, retail is there in every nuke and corner in India in the FMCG segment and many others segments as well.  Most of them are shops, with counter sales, where theft is nearly impossible (not totally impossible). So this is India’s retail and not the small number of organised retails that you see in a few metros. Only organised retail is where public have direct access to materials and almost 99% of them are closely monitored and that too at multiple check points. 
So when you say India tops retail theft, the study you referred should be comprehensive covering the entire span of India, and I am sure there is not a single agency that has dared such a large scale survey. So before making such a statement on the country, you need to give lot of thinking. Else you just told the world that 50% of Indian shoppers are thieves which is actually not true.  This trend projection that you have made is totally wrong and baseless

A simple doubt.. how is the shoplifting rate calculated? You said its 45% in india.. Does that mean one among the three customers is a shop lifter? 

And regarding how to curb this... there is only one solution.. "Be Vigilant"

this is certainly a big issue. in my opinion the retailers need to apply few rules and regulations of security check after making a due declaration to the customers to keep their ego and ensure the theft is prohibited.

Yes, it must be,blame it on attitude here.Use of hi-tech instruments & manpower to check it looks as the solution.And then the company in view of profits they make in such a growing economy,need to set aside a minute %age as acceptable pilferage.

I think In india it is true due to nature of human being. this is very serious matter .

Is it true?

Retail shop lifting can reduced by displaying the articles in the locked cabins and when the customer is intersted to buy can be removed from the cabin by sales executive and delivered to the customer after receiving the payment.

OMG is this for real? 

Oh My God!!!
Retail Shrinkage in India is Terrible, though being the most Promsing & one of the fastest growing economy of the times. But it is seriuos matter of concern.
