Paper shows urban poverty and livelihood in the informal sector in Delhi areas. Urban people depend on informal work activities such as; street traders, rickshaw drivers, transport workers, waste pickers, repairs services, workshop, maid and home - based workers. These work activities play a crucial role for creating work opportunities in urban areas and developing the business cycle to reduce poverty. Paper describes informal work categories, distribution of the workers (based on the age, work activities) and poverty profile of urban people. Delhi is the national capital of India but there is no doubt that poverty exists in urban areas. Paper focuses on urban poverty and livelihood in the informal sector and shows the impact of the informal sector on urban poverty.
