In real, we can say this is not the world that we had in mind! Now the world has changed. Many things are not same, the way people live has changed, the manner of doing business has changed. If we talk about the lifestyle now people will have to make habit to live with mask and proper sanitize themselves. They’ll have to avoid hand shake, the face to face meeting trends, sitting in close group’s even gather in seminar or any social events.

Today, no one can’t roam freely anywhere. People will have to go to the market for purchasing purpose not for fun. Theaters has been closed, we can’t go for movie with friends. We always love to travel and everyone have desire to go on a long drive, unfortunately today we can’t. The pub, night club, gym, spa every luxurious and entertaining platform has been suspended.  

If we talk about the today’s business, the impact of the coronavirus (COVID-19) is being felt by all businesses around the world. The virus, has changed the way of doing business.

People’s are giving preference to online education and online business. However, the futuristic trend will adversely effect on the employment opportunities, but a blue print is being made to keep it in balance.

Some countries has adopted this pandemic as an opportunity. Recently, the Prime Minister of India (Shri. Narendra Modi) and Financial Minister (Nirmala Sitharaman) has announced a 20 lakh crore economic package to make their economy superior and to promote the self-dependent India mission.

The impact of a self-reliant India is being seen, the commercial activities is being diverted, and peoples are shifting to second options to earn their livelihood. A latest trend was seen on village level in India, the taxi service provider, are using their taxi in selling the food, supply of newspaper, milk and essential product. Now, the farmers are selling their vegetables and fruits directly without any mediator, the women group are engaging in making the mask and health kit, the retired teachers or educated person has associated as a freelancer tutor or consultant. Indeed! "Covid-19 may be proven as an opportunities conditionally if we deal with this situation with proper precautions".
