Abstract: Entrepreneurship is a process where one person getting himself self-employed and can provide job to others also. Women Entrepreneurship can be engaged in both unorganized and organized sectors. In India only 8% of the small scale manufacturing units are running exclusively by women entrepreneurs which are proportionally very small as compare other developed countries. The development of a society requires economic participation of women; involvement of women in economic activities would ensure effective utilization of labour generation income and improve quality of life. Women entrepreneurship can be well developed through SHGs and SHGs can take a lead of the income generating activities by which group members can get employment and enhance their family and socio-economic status. The group provides a platform to women for income generation with co-operative and mutual helping attitude.
