Arun, you can create a really quick map of such data using Overpass Turbo.
Try this query for any feature tagged shop=convenience in Mumbai:
http://overpass-turbo.eu/s/ehx

You can also write some simple MapCSS styling to control the marker colors
and size. I wrote about this in my diary a few weeks ago

Was this what you were looking for?
