Street vending has never been equated with business success which gets defined in terms of survival, growth in income, and movement into the formal economy. The wake of globalization adds on to the challenges faced by this class of impoverished lot by focusing on the dire necessity for bringing in legality to their occupation. The impact of multinational retail chain and foreign direct investment on the traditional retail sector of India, the need for right to livelihood of the street vendors and moreover the right to be viewed as human beings and not as a nuisance are the issues with which the movement on street vendors is grappled with. The paper outlines the critical analysis of the legislation enacted in favour of street vendors in the year 2014 and dissects the legal framework from a beneficial perspective.
