“There is still a lot of confusion on which areas are permitted to operate and there are no clear guidelines from district heads. So, at places where we have opened, managers have faced problems from police,\" the head of a leading retail chain in southern India told ET on condition of anonymity.
Besides, retailers are grappling with shortage of employees, inability to acquire new models, negligible customer walk-ins and certain courier partner companies refusing to deliver online orders.
Vijay Sales<\/a>, which owns close to 88 stores, said it is operational only in a few cities such as Surat and Vadodara and is in the process of seeking permissions from state authorities in red zones.
Sangeetha Mobiles said 50% of its total stores have begun operations while another 20% are opening on an hourly basis. The handset retailer runs about 650 stores in six states.
“It is too early to say if the consumer demand for smartphones<\/a> is back on track but we are seeing some sell-out in the market mostly due to the pent-up demand and essential replacements,” said Chandu Reddy, director, Sangeetha Mobiles.
He said demand is mostly flowing towards the company’s online channel, which has seen a fivefold increase in sales this month.
All operations in Andhra Pradesh are again at a standstill after the gas leak from a Vizag plant on Thursday. The state has been predominantly under the green category due to fewer Covid-19 infections.

在地面困惑阻止手机零售商开店
移动电话零售商一直未能打开他们的实体店近一周后放松封锁限制由中央政府因为坚持地面困惑关于遏制地区和国家当局缺乏透明度,业内高管说。
新德里:移动电话零售商一直未能打开他们的实体店近一周后放松封锁限制由中央政府因为坚持地面困惑关于遏制地区和国家当局缺乏透明度,业内高管说。
“仍然有很多混乱的地区被允许操作,从地区负责人没有明确的指导方针。在的地方,我们已经打开,从警察管理者面临的问题,”在印度南部主要零售连锁店的负责人告诉ET在匿名的情况下。
此外,零售商也面临着员工短缺,无法获得新的模型,忽略客户的胜利和某些快递合作公司拒绝提供在线订单。
Vijay销售拥有近88家门店,说这是操作只在一些城市,如苏拉特和瓦尔道拉的过程中寻求国家当局在红区的权限。
Sangeetha手机说50%的总门店已经开始操作,而另一个20%是每小时。手机零售商在六个州大约650家门店。
“这是言之尚早的消费者的需求智能手机回到正轨,但我们看到了一些在市场上出卖主要是由于被压抑的需求和必要的替换,“Chandu Reddy说,Sangeetha手机。
他说主要是流向需求公司的在线渠道,本月销售额增加了五倍。

独立的零售商由于相似的困境持续限制运动。倡议等智能手机品牌小米和体内启动离线销售渠道仍在实施阶段。
“本周对我们没有太大的改变,”说arvind Khurrana,总统的印度手机零售商协会(AIMRA)。“我们几乎能够恢复运营non-hotspot地区的零售商们担心警方。”

AIMRA约占150000个独立的移动电话零售商在印度。
<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>New Delhi: Mobile phone retailers have not been able to open most of their bricks-and-mortar stores nearly a week after easing of lockdown restrictions by the central government because of persisting confusion on the ground regarding containment areas and lack of clarity from state authorities, said industry executives.
“There is still a lot of confusion on which areas are permitted to operate and there are no clear guidelines from district heads. So, at places where we have opened, managers have faced problems from police,\" the head of a leading retail chain in southern India told ET on condition of anonymity.
Besides, retailers are grappling with shortage of employees, inability to acquire new models, negligible customer walk-ins and certain courier partner companies refusing to deliver online orders.
Vijay Sales<\/a>, which owns close to 88 stores, said it is operational only in a few cities such as Surat and Vadodara and is in the process of seeking permissions from state authorities in red zones.
Sangeetha Mobiles said 50% of its total stores have begun operations while another 20% are opening on an hourly basis. The handset retailer runs about 650 stores in six states.
“It is too early to say if the consumer demand for smartphones<\/a> is back on track but we are seeing some sell-out in the market mostly due to the pent-up demand and essential replacements,” said Chandu Reddy, director, Sangeetha Mobiles.
He said demand is mostly flowing towards the company’s online channel, which has seen a fivefold increase in sales this month.
All operations in Andhra Pradesh are again at a standstill after the gas leak from a Vizag plant on Thursday. The state has been predominantly under the green category due to fewer Covid-19 infections.

Long format electronic retail brands including Vijay Sales<\/a> and Reliance Digital<\/a> are shut in malls and market complexes, which are prohibited by the government, and are awaiting approvals for other stores.
An executive from Reliance Digital<\/a> told ET that the company has been able to fulfil certain orders received on Jio recharge stores which are categorised as essentials and functional since March. “For Reliance Digital, we are still assessing the situation as new cases are emerging every day,” said the executive, who did not wish to be identified. The multi-brand chain runs 200 outlets.
The plight of standalone retailers is similar due to continuing restrictions on movement. Initiatives by smartphone brands such as Xiaomi<\/a> and Vivo<\/a> to kick-start sales in the offline channel are still in the implementation stage.
“Not much has changed for us this week,” said Arvinder Khurrana, president of All India Mobile Retailer Association<\/a> (AIMRA<\/a>). “We are hardly able to resume operations in non-hotspot regions as retailers are wary of police authorities.”
Xiaomi<\/a> and Vivo<\/a>, this week, announced the O2O (online to offline) solution to connect customers to their nearest retailer and facilitate home delivery. \"It is too early to comment on that,\" said Khurrana.
AIMRA<\/a> represents about 150,000 independent mobile phone retailers across India.

<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>New Delhi: Mobile phone retailers have not been able to open most of their bricks-and-mortar stores nearly a week after easing of lockdown restrictions by the central government because of persisting confusion on the ground regarding containment areas and lack of clarity from state authorities, said industry executives.
“There is still a lot of confusion on which areas are permitted to operate and there are no clear guidelines from district heads. So, at places where we have opened, managers have faced problems from police,\" the head of a leading retail chain in southern India told ET on condition of anonymity.
Besides, retailers are grappling with shortage of employees, inability to acquire new models, negligible customer walk-ins and certain courier partner companies refusing to deliver online orders.
Vijay Sales<\/a>, which owns close to 88 stores, said it is operational only in a few cities such as Surat and Vadodara and is in the process of seeking permissions from state authorities in red zones.
Sangeetha Mobiles said 50% of its total stores have begun operations while another 20% are opening on an hourly basis. The handset retailer runs about 650 stores in six states.
“It is too early to say if the consumer demand for smartphones<\/a> is back on track but we are seeing some sell-out in the market mostly due to the pent-up demand and essential replacements,” said Chandu Reddy, director, Sangeetha Mobiles.
He said demand is mostly flowing towards the company’s online channel, which has seen a fivefold increase in sales this month.
All operations in Andhra Pradesh are again at a standstill after the gas leak from a Vizag plant on Thursday. The state has been predominantly under the green category due to fewer Covid-19 infections.

The plight of standalone retailers is similar due to continuing restrictions on movement. Initiatives by smartphone brands such as Xiaomi<\/a> and Vivo<\/a> to kick-start sales in the offline channel are still in the implementation stage.
