Abstract

In India, women-owned businesses are becoming more significant because of economic liberalization and globalization. The policy and institutional framework for fostering entrepreneurship, offering career education, and giving training has expanded the possibilities for women's economic empowerment. The demographics of business and the nation's economic growth have been altered because of the rising number of women entrepreneurs. In order to offer skill training, vocational education, and entrepreneurial development to the emerging labor force, the government of India has created various schemes for assisting women entrepreneurs. However, government is not only responsible for entrepreneurial development and skill training, but other stakeholders must also assume responsibility. Henceforth, the focus of the current chapter is on the difficulties that women company owners confront, how to resolve them, and an analysis of the government of India's business-related policies designed to support female entrepreneurs.
