Can Shein Pick Up From Where It Left Off 5 Years Ago?
- Shein is back to cash in on the fast fashion boom after 5 years ban. This time, Reliance Retail is monitoring supply chain logistics and data security.
- Shein has returned as a standalone app and has already been launched in New Delhi, Mumbai, and Bengaluru.
- Local firms such as Zara and H&M had enough time to flourish during Shein’s years of exile that could impact Shein's market capture.
- Being an online-only model could be a hurdle for Shein's unit economics as fast fashion has a lower average selling price and high return rates.
- Shoppers prefer seeing and feeling products before purchase, as Shein has no physical presence, it may need to take longer to build trust and convince customers about quality and fit.
- It has been allowed to relaunch on the condition that it will source all products only from India and make sure all consumer data remains in India.
- It could take one to two years to establish a reliable pan-India supply chain and delivery model, says Elara Capital report.
- Shein will face competition from D2C players and brand aggregators such as Fable Street and Mensa Brands, respectively.
- Price, quality, and convenience will play a crucial role in Shein's success.

Will third time be the charm for Shein as it relaunches in India on Reliance’s back?
- Five years after being banned in India, Shein has partnered with Reliance Retail to relaunch in India's fast fashion landscape. The timing isn't ideal given that playing Zudio, Yousta, and Newme have all jumped into affordable fast fashion, albeit in an offline-first channels. Domestic start-ups Littlebox, Urbanic's Savana and Myntra's FWD have all had success in fast fashion.
- Shein's troubles in India began in 2020 following allegations by the Indian customs department that Chinese shopping sites were paying fewer duties than they should. Shein is looking to overcome the China conundrum with the launch of its Indian supply chain. However building an Indian supply chain comes with its own set of challenges.
- In India, fast fashion is a favourite among millennials and Gen Z shoppers. The category witnessed a growth rate of 30-40% in FY24 compared to fashion which saw a growth rate of around 6%. India’s fast fashion landscape is divided into three segments: premium, mid value and ultra value based on the price. The premium segment features brands like Zara and Uniqlo.
- In the global markets and particularly the US, Shein operates in the ultra-value segment, and the category counted names like Zudio, Yousta, Newme. Ultra Value brands are a keen playground for fast fashion players. The answer is turnaround times. Kushal Bhatnagar, Associate Partner at RedSeer says, “The speed of how quickly they bring those trends to the market, which Zudio does well in India and Shein does globally.
- The “fast” in fast fashion, refers to how quickly styles are taken from runway to shop, offering consumers quick instant gratification on fleeting trends. Adopting a dynamic pricing model helps companies remain agile, enabling them to adjust in real-time to market shifts while staying competitive and profitable.
- Beyond pricing and affordability, the trick for businesses trying to gain and retain market share in this space is in speed and turnaround times. The question is, can Shein replicate its success in the current Indian fast fashion landscape? And if it does, what will happen to the competitors?
- For now, they don't fear any impact on their shares with the return of Shein. “It’s not a winner-takes-all market. I haven’t met a girl whose wardrobe is filled with only one brand,” says Rahul Dayama, Founding Partner at Urbanic. Even if businesses believe consumers have an understanding of fair price, brands still need to understand that there is some “little bit of some value engineering that needs to happen” to strike the “quality and price equilibrium.”

- Myntra, India's largest online fashion firm, has received an $81m cash infusion from parent Flipkart. It expects to face more competition in the space from the Chinese fast fashion platform Shein, which has returned to the Indian market after a five-year ban.
