The complex nature of services makes it imperative to satisfy customers in the most competitive manner. This necessitates creation of bond with the customers. Relationship quality as a comprehensive construct aims at development of trust, commitment and satisfaction with the customers. The present study seeks to validate the relationship quality scale in the context of retail services in India. This would contribute to the upcoming retail sector in India by revealing the crucial parameters of relationship quality as it will assist retailers in achieving market success based on healthy customers' relationships.
