The new coronavirus had harmed the health of billions more people while killing thousands and infecting millions. India imposed a nationwide lockdown, considered one of the strictest in the world, on 24th March 2020. The coronavirus pandemic has significantly impacted India in terms of both the loss of human life and economic activity. With few significant exceptions where substantial growth was seen, almost all sectors have been negatively impacted as domestic demand and exports have dramatically declined. Analysis of the effects and potential remedies for several important sectors is attempted in this paper. Some important sectors like Health, food and agriculture and Aviation & Tourism and so on.
