    India is known for its entrepreneurial and adaptable business spirit - and you don't have to look too hard to find it.
    The country's streets are home to a thriving economy, hard to measure because it is informal, but unquestionably large.
    All kinds of essential services can be found on the pavement, from mending your shoes to cleaning out your ears.

    If you wanted to start a new (legal) street trade in Dublin, what would it be?

    Shaving bikini lines sounds good! :D

    Set up a begging stall, outside the credit union and harass people going about their daily business. Just scribble aids on your jumper and you'll make a fortune.

    There is a high annual fee, a complicated registration process and more bureaucracy if you want to sell food. Cork is slightly easier but in Dublin tis very hard to get a license
