Begum Bazaar
Locality
Hyderabad district
Telangana
Largest and oldest commercial wholesale market in Hyderabad. 'The land of Begum Bazaar was gifted to the merchants of Hyderabad by Humda Begum, the wife of Nizam Ali Khan, Asaf Jah II, for trade and commerce.' Trades household commodities wholesale and retail, brassware and copper, spices; hosts Hyderabad's second-largest fish market, the Mangal Bazaar (utensils) and the Thursday Jumerat Bazaar. CAVEAT: neither the Wikipedia article nor ThePrint's feature on Hyderabad's markets names Komati / Vaishya / Arya Vysya traders here - ThePrint attributes the market families to Marwari, Gujarati and Jain communities. An Arya Vysya link to Begum Bazaar could NOT be confirmed from a citable source and is not asserted.
