Study and analysis of socio-economic factors of women entrepreneurs in India: a case study

If society is a bicycle, then both men and women are its two wheels, and the contributions of both are required for society's growth and development. Women in urban India have excelled their male counterparts in almost all fields and have showed their might. Along with performing their home maker role, they are successfully competing with men in different walks of life. They have distinguished themselves in many unconventional fields. But in rural parts of India, the story is little bit different. Therefore, in this paper we have made an attempt to study the socio-economic factors which determine how different entrepreneurial activities among women lead to the entrepreneurial development viz. socio-economic, demographic, psychological and personal factors. This case study is undertaken in the rural parts of Latur district of Maharashtra state of India through filed survey.
