Highlights of mVAM household survey on the impact of COVID-19 include:

•    Retail prices of food staples remained relatively stable, while prices of meat and dairy increased marginally and there was a sharp increase in fruit and vegetable prices. 
•    Functioning of markets continued to improve, particularly in terms supply, demand, transportation and labour market.
•    The agricultural lean season and monsoon-induced supply restriction combined with the COVID-19 related movement restrictions contributed to the overall price increase and reported insufficiency of commodities in markets in parts of the country.
