ABSTRACT
[...]the pattern of unlocking the economy after 68 days of total lockdown was aimed at saving both lives and livelihoods. [...]specific aim of the paper is to highlight the difficulties that the woolen knitwear industry faces, specifically during the time of total lockdown and partial unlocking of the economy to decipher the impact of COVID-19. Smith and Keogh-Brown (2013) assessed the macroeconomic impact of Swine Flu (H1N1/09) pandemic in 2009 on South Africa, Uganda and Thailand and found that Uganda's economy suffered greater than Thailand and South Africa. Since the outbreak of COVID-19, the focus of researchers and policymakers has been upon assessing and documenting the impact of pandemic on different firms, industries, sectors and countries for finding appropriate policies for revival. According to Ministry of Health and Family Welfare (MoHFW) (2020) first confirmed case of COVID-19 was recorded in India on January 30,2020. Henceforth, the confirmed cases started increasing in these regions (Figure 1), especially after unlocking of the nation. [...]June 26,2020, India recorded 4,90,401 confirmed COVID-19 positive cases and death toll reached to 15,301.
