Reliance Retail entered India’s offline pharmaceutical retail market by opening a Netmeds store in Chennai, extending the online pharmacy brand into physical retail.

Why this matters

The Chennai Netmeds store fits Reliance Retail's broader channel expansion, alongside AJIO Beauty's launch with 1,500+ brands and delivery reach across 19,000 pin codes.

Omni-channel is steady, with 1,358 signals in the past 90 days; no QoQ change was provided.
