I thought the RPG group (Spencer's Hypermarket), Pantaloon Group (Big Bazar) and some south Indian groups have the first mover advantage.
Reliance's advantge is in raising funds as you have said rightly, with the ability to reach a critical scale faster than anyone.
Dhirubhai's policy was very simple " jo bhi karo dil khol ke karo'.
If only Reliance wants, they can take over the Indian retail market just a word of caution, be more fair and transparent with their small business partners and entrepreneurs and do not repeat Infocomm and Gas station fiascos....
