Abstract: In India and across the world the ideas of herbal and pure products are gaining importance. Patanjali because of its herbal nature, fine quality and rational price is giving tough competition to its counterpart MNCs and unorganised retailers. With the view of promoting organised sector retailing, Patanjali has opened Patanjali megastores, Patanjali Chikitsalaya and Arogya Kendra. But because of the availability of Patanjali products at nearby Kirana and other stores, the preference of the customers towards megastore is less. This study makes a comparative analysis between Patanjali megastore and Kirana store, to identify the factors which act as a hindrance in the growth of Patanjali megastore in Delhi and examined the impact of demographic variables. 152 respondents were surveyed. Independent T-test and ANOVA were used for data analysis. The findings may help the megastores and policy makers in better understanding customer requirements and help in formulation of suitable growth strategies.
