How this tracker works

Entries come from company announcements, regulatory filings and news reports about Indian retail. Our system reads each report, records only events it states as new, and checks in code that every company, person and number appears in the report itself before anything is saved. Each entry is written in our own words, dated when the event happened, and labelled with the kind of source behind it: a company announcement, a regulatory filing, media reports, or confirmation from the company itself. Publications this page draws on: YourStory, Entrackr, ET Retail, Entrackr.

Common questions

Where does the people moves data come from?

From company announcements, regulatory filings and news reports on Indian retail, ecommerce, quick commerce and consumer brands. Each entry is labelled with the kind of source behind it and, where we covered it, links to our own story. Brands can confirm or correct entries through our For brands page.

How often is this tracker updated?

Automatically, every time we publish a story that reports a new move. Entries are dated by when the event happened, not when we added them.

How do I report a missing or wrong entry?

Email editor@example.com with a link to a public source. We check it and update the tracker; confirmed errors are logged on our corrections page.
