Problems Faced by Women Entrepreneurs With Special Reference to the Thane District

Womens entrepreneurship is a relatively new phenomenon that is slowly developing as society becomes more aware of the duties, responsibilities, and economic status of women in general and the family in particular. A woman entrepreneur is a person who takes on difficult responsibilities in order to fulfil her personal wants and achieve financial independence. Many women possess this quality, but because they were never given the chance to show off their skills, they are unaware of their true potential. Starting and running a business is extremely risky and challenging for women business owners because, historically, women in Indian society have always been seen as inferior to men. This has changed as womens educational levels have increased and as society has become more aware of the importance of women in society. By engaging in a variety of professions and services, women have been effective in escaping the confines of their homes. In terms of business savvy, women entrepreneurs have demonstrated parity with their male colleagues, and they are emerging as intelligent and innovative businesspeople. The economies of practically all nations are seeing significant growth in the number of women owned companies. With increased awareness of womens roles and economic standing in society, the latent entrepreneurial potentials of women have slowly changed. Women are increasingly entering the business world for a variety of reasons, chief among them being skill, expertise, and adaptability. Women Entrepreneur refers to a person who takes on demanding roles in order to meet her own requirements and achieve financial independence. Despite the fact that the government has organised women into several associations, they are not yet prepared to start their own business. Women are less inclined to create businesses than men are because of unwarranted fears, a lack of motivation, and certain types of activities. This paper attempts to look into the issues and difficulties that women business owners in Thane District encounter. Surabhi Gupta | Prof. Dr. S. B.
