    Rural India can be defined as areas with populations less than certain thresholds such as 20,000-50,000 people depending on the agency. Rural marketing has evolved over three phases from unorganized marketing of essential goods to organized marketing of branded consumer goods and services. The rural market structure is characterized by a growing population under 35 years old, increasing literacy and education levels, more nuclear family structures, and a shift away from agriculture-based occupations. Household income levels in rural India have risen significantly from 1998-1999 according to government data.
