Abstract: COVID-19 has affected human lives across the globe and emerged as one of the most significant tragedies. The psychological impact of the pandemic has led to significant behavioural changes. The financial markets and financial institutions are no exception to this behavioural change. However, the authors were not able to find any conclusive research available in the context of India wherein an introspective analysis of this behavioural shift is done. Hence, the present study would be the first of its kind when it comes to the examination of change in financial behaviour and financial knowledge by the individuals of different demographic cohorts. The findings of the study revealed that age, education level, and the number of financial dependents are the key demographic characteristics affecting financial behaviour and financial knowledge during the pandemic and post-pandemic induced lockdown.
