Seeking license for single brand retail stores, the apparel brand of retail holding firm Fast Retailing Co., Ltd., has submitted its proposal to the department of industrial policy and promotion, according to the department's website.

“Fast Retailing believes India is a market with great potential, and can confirm that the company has taken the first step towards a later introduction of Uniqlo to customers in India.
