Second National Level Interdisciplinary Seminar on "Exploring Emerging Trends and Innovation in Research in Commerce, Science & Technology, Humanities and Social Sciences”

In India, in the past five decades there has been an enormous change with respect to the status and work place diversity of women. In 1960’s, women in the country made small attempts to start small enterprises and work from home. In 1970’s, women started to create a balance between their social and occupation roles by managing home, marriage, children as well as occupation. In 1980’s, there was a rise in the number of women that pursued highly sophisticated technological and professional education and those entering into family businesses. In the 1990’s, women became more competent, capable and confident. This qualitative research attempts to define the importance of the role of women in business and entrepreneurship in India and to study the growth of women entrepreneurs in India and its causes.
