Nurturing women entrepreneurs in India: Present status and future outlook
Authors
Nabin Kumar Choudhary
Abstract
Women entrepreneurship is increasingly
recognized as a vital driver for India’s socio-economic growth, contributing to
job creation, innovation and inclusive development. This paper explores the
current status of women entrepreneurs in India, analysing their significant
contributions, the pervasive challenges they face and the role of government
initiatives. Despite notable progress, particularly in the start-up ecosystem,
women-owned enterprises still represent a modest share of the total Business
landscape. Key hurdles remain, notably limited access to finance, the burden of
dual responsibilities and persistent socio-cultural biases. The paper concludes
by outlining a promising future outlook, emphasizing the need for targeted,
scalable interventions-particularly in technology adoption and high-growth
sectors to fully unlock the transformational potential of women-led businesses
for India’s ‘Women-Led Development’ goal.
