Delhi government in its lockdown 4.0 guidelines has allowed the markets to open but shops have to follow the odd-even rule to conduct business. The government has also allowed all essential, stand-alone and neighbouring shops to operate.

The observation of Eid-ul-Fitr depends on the sighting of the moon. It marks the conclusion of the holy month of Ramzan, which is a month of fasting and prayer for the Muslim community.
