You're In Business

The project represents a well-established physical retail landmark (Mall of Travancore) rather than a technology product. While the underlying business is substantial (Malabar Group venture), the submission itself is of low quality, lacking verifiable digital traction metrics or technical innovation. As a technology project evaluation, it scores low due to the absence of proprietary tech, regional limitations, and a lack of specific digital impact evidence.
