1) Janpath:
Located in the heart of New Delhi, right next to the iconic Connaught Place, Janpath has its own charm. It has so many attractive things that you will want to grab all at once. Here you can see a straight line of shops as well as hawkers on the street. You can find cheap jewelry, handicrafts, traditional clothes and footwear, home decor and much more.

You can visit this market from Monday to Saturday, 10:30 am to 7:30 pm.
2) Sarojini Nagar Market:
This is the most famous market amongst youngsters in Delhi. It is located in South Delhi. The market gets all the fashionable clothes at such low prices because of export surplus. The market also gets rejected export clothing, which include some of the most reputed brands as well. Zara, Mango, M&S you name it and they have it!
The quality of the products will not be very good but the products are so affordable that you will not mind buying them. PS check the clothes for holes, a few snagged ends and stuff. It is basically quantity shopping. Also there are no trial rooms in any of the shops and they are pretty crowed all the time, therefore, make sure you wear comfortable clothing and foot ware for a good shopping experience. Bargaining here is easy as most of the stuff the shopkeepers also get are very cheap. The market is open from Tuesday to Sunday, 11 am to 7:30 pm.

Not only shopping, but you can also get some delicious traditional food that is available only here. This is the oldest market in the city. The market is always crowded, therefore, motor vehicles take a lot of time to reach the market. We would recommend you take the rickshaw if you want to save time and enjoy shopping.
