There are at least 30 cities whose populations now exceed 1 million. 6 now exceed 5 million. Estimates by leading retailers suggest that Greater Mumbai may account for 35% of jewellery sales in its State, Kolkata, Ahmedabad, Hyderabad and Chennai for 30% and Bangalore and Cochin for 25% in their respective States. New Delhi attracts customers from all States in the north. Although the estimates may be exaggerated, major cities are regarded as extremely important retail centres. 40 AN INTRODUCTION TO THE INDIAN GOLD MARKET

Social classes are expressed in terms of annual income in rupees at 1994-95 prices. Low (up to 22,500), Lower Middle (22,551-45,000), Middle (45,001-70,000), Upper Middle (70,001-96,000) and High (above 96,000). Income levels and grouping are approximate and indicative only as figures do not take into account the underground economy. Large retailers generally describe the “Middle Class”, in their view, as starting at the Rs 15,000 (US$ 300) per month level. There are 181 million households in India. The household category is important as jewellery purchases are normally the outcome of a family decision. Retailers stress the importance of the emerging “middle class” to jewellery consumption. Although NCAER estimates are indicative only, urban households account for 58% of the 49 million Middle Class and above households, rural for 42%. Since 1994-95, the number of urban households in this category has grown by 90%, the number of rural households by 40%. Retailers also stress that many households cannot afford to buy much gold. 26% of the population is recorded at below the poverty line. AN INTRODUCTION TO THE INDIAN GOLD MARKET 41
