INTRODUCTION
Women entrepreneurs visionaries might be characterized as a
"women or a gathering of women who start, sort out and
maintain a business endeavor". Legislature of India has
characterized women business people in light of women
investment in value and work of a business endeavor. In like
manner, a women run an undertaking is characterized as "an
endeavor possessed and controlled by a women having a base
budgetary enthusiasm of 51% of the capital and giving no less
than 51%of the business created in the venture to women".
Women business visionary constitute 10 % of the quantity of
the quantity of business visionary in the nation. This has been
a critical development in independent work of women with
women now beginning new pursuits at three circumstances the
rate of men. They constitute half of the number of inhabitants
in our nation with a lower proficiency rate than men. This
measurable reality demonstrates that for the financial
development of the country, women ought not be urged to
make their share of monetary commitment towards the nation.
one method for accomplishing is by making women turn out
and get to be business people. In the customary society, they
were kept to the four dividers, assuming family parts, yet in
the present day society, they are turning out to partake in
assorted types od exercises. Regularly, women business
enterprise is found in the augmentation of their kitchen
exercises, chiefly in get ready economically the 3‟P‟s
specifically, Pickles, Papads and Powder. Few of them wander
Women enter enterprise because of financial variables which
pushed them to be all alone and urge them to accomplish
something freely. Women like to work from their own
particular work home, trouble in landing appropriate positions
and yearning for social acknowledgment rouse them towards
independent work. We see a great deal of women experts in
building, drug, law and so forth. They are likewise setting up
healing facilities, preparing focuses, and so on.
“An enterprise owned and controlled by a women having a
minimum financial interest of 51 per cent of the capital and
giving at least 51 per cent of the employment generated by the
enterprise to women.”
— Government of India
“A woman entrepreneur can be defined as a confident,
innovative and creative woman capable of achieving self
economic independence individually or in collaboration,
generates employment opportunities for others through
initiating, establishing and running the enterprise by keeping
pace with her personal, family and social life.”

50% of the general public , are not equivalent accomplices in
the public eye. Perceptual factors impact the entrepreneurial
inclination of women and record for a great part of the sexual
orientation contrasts in entrepreneurial styles. The low
education rate ( 40% ), low cooperation rate ( 10 %) of women
as looks at to 60%, 52%, 18% individually of their male
partners demonstrate their disadvantageous position in the
general public.
The aftereffects of the review led by IIT, Delhi are:
financial support of business partners, experiences & well
developed professional network.
Women network report on Women in Business & in
Decision Making focus on women entrepreneurs, about their
problems in starting & running the business, family back
ground, education, size of business unit. Some interesting
facts which came out from this report are less educated
women entrepreneurs are engaged in micro enterprises, have
husband & children but have no help at home. Most of the
women establish enterprises before the age of 35, after
gaining some experience as an employee somewhere else.
The motivational factors were desire for control & freedom
to take their own decision as well as earning handsome
amount of money. Dedication of more than 48 hours in a
week with the family support to their enterprises gave them a
sense of self confidence. However, to maintain balance
between family & work life is a major challenge before
women entrepreneurs especially for those who have children &
working husband.
Darrene, Harpel and Mayer, (2008) performed a study on
finding the relationship between elements of human capital
and self employment among women. The study showed that
self employed women differ on most human capital variable
as compared to the salary and wage earning women. The
study also revealed the fact that the education attainment
level is faster for self employed women than that for
other working women. The percentage of occupancy of
managerial job is found to be comparatively higher in case of
self employed women as compared to other working women.
This study also shed light on similarity and dissimilarity of
situations for self employed men and self employed
women. Self employed men and women differ little in
education, experience and preparedness. However, the main
difference lies in occupational and industry experience. The
percentage of population holding management occupation is
lower for self employed women as compared to self
employed men. Also the participation levels of self
employed women are found to be less than of self
employed men in industries like communication,
transportation,
wholesale
trade,
manufacturing
and
construction. The analysis is based on data from the
Current Population Survey (CPS) Annual Social and
Economic Supplement (ASEC) from 1994 to 2006.
Singh, 2008, identifies the reasons & influencing factors
behind entry of women in entrepreneurship. He explained
the characteristics of their businesses in Indian context and
also obstacles & challenges. He mentioned the obstacles in
the growth of women entrepreneurship are mainly lack
of interaction with successful entrepreneurs, social unacceptance as women entrepreneurs, family responsibility,
gender discrimination, missing network, low priority given
by bankers to provide loan to women entrepreneurs. He
suggested the remedial measures like promoting micro
enterprises, unlocking institutional frame work, projecting &
pulling to
grow & support the winners etc. The study advocates for
ensuring synergy among women related ministry, economic
ministry & social & welfare development ministry of the
1)Women possess 33% of independent company in USA and
Canada and the number is likely half in the 21st century.
2) Women represent 40% of the aggregate work compel in
Asian nations. 3) Women dwarf men by no less than two lines
in China.
3) The rate of women business visionaries has expanded from
7.69% in 1992-93 to 10% in year 2000-01, yet the number still
is essentially low when contrasted with general work
investment rate i.e. 25.7%.
4) The quantity of women in specialized courses, proficient
courses and in designing stream has demonstrated a colossal
ascent. Polytechnics and IITs have just 15% young women out
of aggregate entrolled understudies and less join and set their
own endeavors.
REVIEW OF LITERATURE
Bowen & Hisrich, (1986), compared & evaluated various
research studies done on entrepreneurship including women
entrepreneurship. It summaries various studies in this way
that female entrepreneurs are relatively well educated in
general but perhaps not in management skills, high in internal
locus of control, more masculine, or instrumental than other
women in their values likely to have had entrepreneurial
fathers, relatively likely to have frts born or only children,
unlikely to start business in traditionally male dominated
industries & experiencing a need of additional managerial
training.
Cohoon, Wadhwa & Mitchell, (2010), present a detailed
exploration of men & women entrepreneur‟s motivations,
background and experiences. The study is based on the
data collected from successful women entrepreneurs. Out of
them 59% had founded two or more companies. The study
identifies top five financial & psychological factors
motivating women to become entrepreneurs. These are desire
to build the wealth, the wish to capitalize own business ideas
they had, the appeal of startup culture, a long standing desire
to own their own company and working with someone
else did not appeal them. The challenges are more
related with entrepreneurship rather than gender. However,
the study concluded with the requirement of further
investigation like why women are so much concerned about
protecting intellectual capital than their counterpart. Mentoring
is very important to women, which provides encouragement &

Government of India.
Tambunan, (2009), made a study on recent developments
of women entrepreneurs in Asian developing countries.
The study focused mainly on women entrepreneurs in small
and medium enterprises based on data analysis and review
of recent key literature. This study found that in Asian
developing countries SMEs are gaining overwhelming
importance; more than 95% of all firms in all sectors on
average per country. The study also depicted the fact that
representation of women entrepreneurs in this region is
relatively low due to factors like low level of education, lack
of capital and cultural or religious constraints. However, the
study revealed that most of the women entrepreneurs in
SMEs are from the category of forced entrepreneurs seeking
for better family incomes.
treated equivalent to men. Their entrance to business requires
the endorsement of the leader of the family. Business has
customarily been viewed as a male safeguard. Every one of
these puts a break in the development of women business
visionaries.
3 Absence of training: Women in India are lingering a long
ways behind in the field of instruction. The greater part of the
women (around sixty for each penny of aggregate women) are
uneducated. The individuals who are taught are given either
less or deficient training than their male partner incompletely
because of early marriage, halfway because of child's
advanced education and mostly because of destitution.
Because of absence of legitimate instruction, women business
visionaries stay in dull about the advancement of new
innovation, new techniques for creation, advertising and other
administrative bolster which will urge them to prosper.
Objectives of the Study
The study is based on secondary data collected from the
published reports of RBI, Census Surveys, SSI Reports,
newspapers, journals, websites, Report of MSME etc. The
study intended to throw light on the following issues:

To study the present position of Indian Women
Entrepreneurs.

To study the motivating factors responsible
for encouraging women to become
entrepreneurs.

To critically examine the problems faced by
women entrepreneurs.

To study the government initiatives & schemes
to encourage women entrepreneurs.
4 Social hindrances: The conventions and traditions won in
Indian social orders towards women here and there remain as a
deterrent before them to develop and thrive. Positions and
religions rule with each other and blocks women business
people as well. In rustic territories, they confront more social
obstructions. They are dependably observed with suspicious
eyes.
5 Lack of crude materials: The shortage of crude materials,
here and there nor, accessibility of appropriate and satisfactory
crude materials sounds the demise ring of the ventures keep
running by women business people. Women business
visionaries truly confront an extreme assignment in getting the
required crude material and other essential contributions for
the endeavors when the costs are high.
METHODOLOGY
The prepared paper is a descriptive study in nature. The
secondary data and information have been analyzed for
preparing the paper extensively. The secondary information
have been collected from different scholars‟ and
researchers‟ published books, articles published in different
journals, periodicals, conference paper, working paper and
websites.
6 Issue of fund: Women business people stiffer a considerable
measure in raising and meeting the money related
requirements of the business, Brokers, lenders and monetary
foundations are not approaching to give budgetary help to
women borrowers on the ground of their less credit value and
more odds of business disappointment. They likewise confront
money related issue because of blockage of assets in crude
materials, work-in-advance completed products and nonreceipt of installment from clients in time.
PROBLEMS FACED BY INDIAN WOMEN
ENTREPRENEURS:
Besides the above basic problems the other problems
faced by women entrepreneurs are as follows:
1 Family ties: Women in India are candidly appended to their
families. They should take care of all the local work, to take
care of the youngsters and different individuals from the
family. They are over weight with family obligations like
additional consideration regarding spouse, kids and in laws
which take away a bunches of their time and vitality. In such
circumstance, it will be extremely hard to think and run the
venture effectively.
7 Intense rivalries: Generally women business visionaries
utilize low innovation during the time spent generation. In a
market where the opposition is too high, they need to contend
energetically to make due in the market against the composed
division and their male partner who have incomprehensible
experience and ability to embrace propelled innovation in
overseeing undertakings 8 High cost of generation: A few
variables including wasteful administration add to the high
cost of generation which remains as a hindrance before women
business visionaries. Women business visionaries confront
innovation out of date quality because of non-reception or ease
back selection to changing innovation which is a central point
of high cost of creation.
2 Male commanded society: Despite the fact that our
constitution discusses correspondence between genders, male
haughtiness is still the request of the day. Women are not

9 Okay bearing limit: Women in India are by nature feeble,
timid and mellow. They can't hold up under the sum chance
which is fundamental for running an undertaking. Absence of
instruction, preparing and money related support from exterior
additionally lessen their capacity to tolerate the hazard
required in a ventures.
FACTORS INFLUENCING WOMEN
ENTREPRENEURSHIP
1 PUSH Variables Push elements will be components of need,
for example, insufficicient family salary, disappointment with
compensations work, trouble in looking for some kind of
employment and a requirement for adaptable work routine in
view of family obligations. These variables may have more
significance for women than for men.
10 Restricted portability:Women portability in India is
profoundly restricted and has turned into an issue because of
customary qualities and failure to drive vehicles. Moving
alone and requesting a space to remain out in the night for
business reasons for existing are still looked upon with
suspicious eyes. Now and then, more youthful women feel
uncomfortable in managing men who demonstrate additional
enthusiasm for them than business related angles.
2 PULL Variables Figures that work as entrepreneurial drive
components identify with autonomy, self-satisfaction,
entrepreneurial drive and yearning for riches, influence and
societal position, co-operation and support of relatives and a
solid system of contacts. The most noticeable variable is self
accomplishment communicated as far as test which helps
women to begin, maintain their own business and transform it
into a productive wander. At the point when a solid
requirement for accomplishment couldn't be satisfied through
a salaried position or when there was a yearning to change an
apparent open door into an attractive thought, then these
components work for a man to detail their own wander.
11 Absence of entrepreneurial fitness: Absence of
entrepreneurial fitness involves sympathy toward women
business visionaries. They have no entrepreneurial bowed of
psyche. Indeed, even in the wake of going to different
preparing programs on business visionary ship women
business people neglect to hold over the dangers and
inconveniences that may come up in an authoritative working.

12 Restricted administrative capacity: Administration has
turned into a specific employment which just proficient chiefs
perform. Women business visionaries are not effective in
administrative capacities like arranging, sorting out,
controlling, organizing, staffing, coordinating, persuading and
so on of an endeavor. In this way, less and constrained
administrative capacity of women has turned into an issue for
them to run the venture effectively.
13 Lawful conventions: Satisfying the lawful conventions
required for running a venture turns into a change errand with
respect to a women business visionary in light of the
predominance of degenerate practices in government
workplaces and procedural deferrals for different licenses,
power, water and shed portions. In such circumstances women
business visionaries think that its difficult to focus on the
smooth working of the undertaking.
14 Misuse by center men: Since women can't circled for
promoting, conveyance and cash accumulation, they need to
rely on upon center men for the above exercises. Center men
tend to adventure them in the appearance of making a
difference. They include their own particular overall revenue
which result in less deals and lesser benefit.
STEPS TAKEN BY THE INDIAN GOVERNMENT
The development and advancement of ladies business
people required to be quickened on the grounds that
entrepreneurial improvement is unrealistic without the
support of ladies.
15 Absence of self-assurance: Women business visionaries
due to their intrinsic nature, absence of self-assurance which is
basically a propelling element in running an undertaking
effectively. They need to endeavor hard to strike a harmony
between dealing with a family and dealing with an
undertaking. In some cases she needs to relinquish her
entrepreneurial inclination with a specific end goal to strike a
harmony between the two.
Consequently, an amiable domain is should have been
made to empower ladies to take an interest effectively
in the entrepreneurial exercises. There is a need of
Government, non-Government, limited time and
administrative offices to approach and assume the
