"India has been growing rapidly, in terms of potential, for direct marketing. According to the Indian Direct Marketing Association the present Rs 3,300 crore-market would become Rs 5,000 crore by the end of 2012. So we have immense potential to grow in this market," she told the Press Trust of India.
