Car(r)e fo(u)r a 'Fresh' pie of retail?

The world’s second largest retail chain, Carrefour, is in talks with the Wadia Group to zoom into India’s hot retail sector. Though there has been no official comment, Kamal Nath, Union Minister for Commerce & Industry, said that talks are at the final stage and they might sign on the dotted line as soon as mid- February.

The count is expected to go up to 100 stores in the next four months in Delhi and NCR.
