| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Firstly, this study examined the rapid expansion of consumer markets in India by analysing consumptions of broad-ranging goods and services, various types of consumption relating to religious activities, and advertisements in Tamil magazines. Secondly, it showed that the changing consumption patterns reflected structural transformation of the social order which had been formed by the stringent caste system. Thirdly, it is revealed that consumption pattern in urban poor households tended to be similar to that in rural households in respect of preference to quasi-brand goods. The fondness to cheap and inferior goods in the major part of the population seems to possibly constrain the further development of consumer markets and economic growth in the country.
