Shopping in India - Top 10 Biggest/Largest Shopping Malls in India
Over the years, the number of malls in India has grown rapidly. Post 2005 many new malls have started all over India. So much so that Indian metros are on a verge of a saturation point as far as shopping malls are concerned. As you read, construction of many malls across India are on a full-swing. Of late, the focus has shifted from the metros and businesses are now looking at tier-2 and tier-3 cities. Cities like Gurgaon, Kochi, and Varanasi are looking very promising. With DLF supposedly building the largest shopping complex of the World in Gurgoan. 'Mall of India' in Gurgoan will have a floor area of 4,500,000 when completed. Similarly, Kochi has 'lulu Cochin Mall' with floor area of about 2,200,000 which is expected to be open in mid-2012.
