The purpose of this study is to find out the level of income per day earned by street vendors in Ward G in Mumbai City. Income per day of street vendors is the dependent variable. The age, number of hours of work and number of years since migration to Mumbai City are independent variables. The researcher used structured questionnaire to find out age, number of hours of work, number of years since migration to Mumbai City and income per day.
