Abstract

Abstract Indian business has been taken by surprise by the appearance of Covid-19. When Covid-19 hit the market, the economy was already in a chaotic position. It is possible to limit a highly contagious disease with legislative acts such as social exclusion, house confinement and even the lockout of a whole country. As a part of the study, researchers will examine the impact of COVID-19 on India's health status and describe the level of satisfaction with government corrective measures for COVID-19. Sixty one percent of respondents are concerned about their mental health, seventynine percent are unsure of the future, 91.23 percent are concerned about the future of their family and children, 68.42 percent are concerned about their health, and 61.40 percent are fatigued, according to the research. However, 25 persons claimed they were not hungry. 90% of the respondents thought that lock down could limit the spread of the epidemic, while just 10% were unsure. At 84.21%, respondents are satisfied with local/district/state authorities' efforts to contain this epidemic; at 15.79% they are dissatisfied. Out of 57 people who took part in the survey, In the wake of the COVID19 epidemic, our country faces a number of social and economic challenges. In terms of social and economic life, the lockdown and COVID19 attacks have been devastating. Human psychology and social behaviour have been altered by this global pandemic, according to studies. COVID-19's economic and psychological impact on India was also examined in this study. Much of India's population suffered psychological effects as a result of the crisis, according to a recent survey. They wear masks and wash their hands frequently to avoid the spread of the sickness. If we follow all of the Indian government's COVID19 instructions, we will be able to stop this deadly pandemic.
