Abstract
The financial catastrophe brought by the Covid-19 outbreak is unprecedented. Natural disasters in the past caused long-term damage to the economy's production potential, with noticeable short- and medium-term effects. The manufacturing of goods and services virtually ceased during the Covid-19 outbreak. Among individuals who are impacted by COVID 19, micro-entrepreneurs
are a particular group. They stood out because they had taken the risk of investing their hard-earned money in their incredibly small businesses in order to support themselves. When one pays attention, one can see the foreboding of a gloomy business future in the manifestations of the groups that rallied to the challenges of the day and startled the State with their limitless variations,
such as clinically stitching masks and creating hand sanitizers. Many businesses have lost stock, others have restricted working cash, and some businesses' whole investments are at jeopardy. The Covid-19 Pandemic and Its Economic Impact on Kudumbashree Micro Enterprises in the Kollam District of Kerala are examined in the current article
