Reach of satellite T.V. channels is helping in creating awareness about global products for local markets. About 47% of India’s population is under the age of 20; and this will increase to 55% by 2015. This young population, which is technology-savvy, watch more than 50 TV satellite channels, and display the highest propensity to spend, and are expected to immensely contribute to the growth of the retail sector in India.
The New Indian Consumer “…one of the most significant changes has been the transformation of households into dual- and even triple-income ones. With young people in new professions in the services and BPO industries, beginning to work at an early age, spending habits have changed.

Growing affluence levels and consumer sophistication, which are the usual developments accompanying a booming economy, are the main factors contributing to the robust growth of financial cards in India.
