Two years back Ansal Plaza in Palam Vihar almost felt like a half hearted effort by the builders,
who made a mall but did nothing much to promote it. Most of the shops were vacant and
shoppers were a bare minimum. Residents of Palam Vihar still preferred to go all the way to MG
Road and shop. However, this has changed completely almost overnight for the

Not only brands such as CCD,Pizza Hut, Dominoes Pizza andReliance Digital came in but also local
entrepreneurs made their presence felt. This automatically led to increase in the footfalls in the mall as
shoppers found good retail outlets. In a bid to understand how this scenario changed all of a sudden, we
spoke to Monika Gautam, the General Manager (leasing) of Ansal API. - See more at:

Ansal Plaza
It was one of the first malls to open in Delhi. Its prime location in the heart of South
Delhi made it an instant hit, especially with cultural events organised in its
amphitheatre. But over the years, like Basant Lok and Anupam complex, people
have given this mall a miss altogether. With several merchandise and retail stores
shutting down, the mall now has offices functioning out of it. Shopkeepers claim they
are struggling to make ends meet.
Gagandeep Singh, Chief Operating Officer (malls), Ansal API, says, Ansal Plaza
was launched in 1999 and enjoyed the status of being the most successful mall for
almost a decade. Every product has a life-cycle.
With more malls opening in the vicinity, there is definitely a rationalisation of
footfalls, he says.
Office space seems to outrun the number of merchandise shops in the mall. The
ground and first floors still have Shoppers Stop, McDonalds, Meena Bazaar,
Lacoste, Red Tape etc., besides two liquor shops. By evening, with most office-goers
leaving, the mall wears an empty look. The mall was designed as a retail-cum-office
centre with retail on the ground and first floors and offices on the two upper floors.
This was done to retain perennial footfalls. With time, the rental for office space in
South Delhi has seen good growth, which resulted in investors leasing the spaces to
offices, he adds.
In order to revive the mall, a new strategy is being worked out. A new strategy is
being worked out for the mall by using the new concepts of zoning, segmentation,
food court, a resto bar etc. This will boost footfalls and also offer a fresh experience
to visitors, Gagandeep says.
