Abstract The rationale of the study is to understand how the women street vendors in Bangalore city’s ain markets in the post covid period faced their problems. The period of study was from July to ctober 2022 during the festival time . Street vendors or hawkers re those who sold their goods on the pavements or makeshift stalls. They belong to the unorganized sector and are unskilled individuals. This period was chosen to understand under what conditions did the women vendors sell their merchandise? Though the government has come forward to assist the urban vendors by means of SVAnidhi and SUSV,Deenadayal Antyodya Yojana the study found women vendors unable to face market competition ,and were elbowed out of their selling space by rival competitors. They grappled many issues concerning problems of transporting and pricing of flowers, fruits and vegetables etc. The main markets chosen for the study was .Yaswanthpura’s Dr.Ambedkarnagar market, Malleshwaram 11th cross market and K.R market. Eight categories of street vendors were selected. Flower sellers ,vegetable sellers, fancy items sellers, Agarbathi sellers ,mud pots sellers, Rangoli powders sellers, sweet condiments sellers and finally pani puri sellers. From Yeshwanthpur main market 50 samples, K R market 120 samples and from Malleshwaram main market 30 samples were taken for study. Total sample size was 200 and descriptive analysis was followed. The research problem pertained to their access of finance for business purpose and how they fared in the post-covid period during the festival season from July to October. .All markets post pandemic which witnessed an economic slowdown wanted a fast economic recovery Research methodology consisted of both primary as well as secondary data.
