Unprecedented measures to control the rapid spread of India 's ongoing COVID-19 pandemic have been adopted. Knowledge, Activity and Practice (KAP) toward COVID-19 influence people 's adherence to control steps. Through this report, we investigated Indian KAP residents against COVID-19 during the rapidly growing outbreak time. An online sample of Indian residents has been successfully recruited with residents in India through the authors' networks. The participants completed a self-developed online questionnaire on KAP. The knowledge questionnaire consisted of 12 questions concerning the clinical characteristics and COVID-19 prevention. Assessments on the attitudes and practice of citizens towards COVID-19 contained questions on confidence in winning the fight against COVID-19 and wearing masks while going out in the last few days. The COVID-19 knowledge score (OR: 0.75-0.90) has been significantly correlated in multiple logistic regression analyzes with a lower likelihood of fewer knowledge and negative attitude and preventive practices towards COVID-2019.Most Indian residents of a relatively high socioeconomic status, particularly women, are knowledgeable about COVID-19, hold positive attitudes, and have adequate COVID-19 practices. Health awareness initiatives aimed number of information about COVID-19 are valuable for Indian citizens in preserving positive attitudes and effective practices. We must be careful when generalizing these results to communities of low socioeconomic status due to the small sample representativeness.
