Daryaganj continues to be a major commercial hub of modern Old Delhi. The district bustles with shoppers from Monday to Saturday, and on Sunday is home to India's largest platform market for magazines and second hand books.
Daryaganj is also famous for its all time favourite markets like the Sunday Market or the Kitab Bazaar (Book Market) that is held every Sunday on street pavements. One may find any book in the English or Hindi language that is published across the world.
