Results: The study highlighted the most significant journals, authors, co-cited authors, institutions, key-words co-occurrence, and most cited articles in the area of COVID-19 and Mental Health on the basis of bibliometric analysis of 149 studies taken from the database of Scopus for the past three years (2020–first quarter of 2022). Also, authors identified few relevant themes such as Economic Effects of COVID-19, COVID-19 and its Impact on Healthcare workers, COVID-19 and its Impact on Patients and General Population as important emerging key areas for further research. Conclusion: We have highlighted significant citations, co-citations and keywords co-occurrence to summarize the literature. The present bibliometric study convincingly confirms the effect of COVID 19 pandemic on mental health and provides enough evidence to advocate formulation of strategies to tackle mental health issues.LiteratureCOVID-19ScopusMental HealthBibliometric AnalysisJournal ArticleIndiaAkal University, Talwandi Sabo, Bathinda, Punjab, IndiaAll India Institutional of Medical Sciences, Vijaypur, Jammu, J&K, IndiaGovernment Arts and Science College, Bavla, Ahmedabad, Gujarat, IndiaSRM University, Mangalagiri, Guntur, Andhra Pradesh, IndiaASCOMS and Hospital, Sidhra, Jammu, J&K, India
