The MSMEs sector contributes significantly to the manufacturing output, employment and exports of the country. India has always been a land of entrepreneurs and also occupied a strategic position in the Indian economy. In Modern India, more and more women are showing interest towards entrepreneurial activity in micro, small and medium scale enterprises. The role of women entrepreneurs is important part of the labor force, the economies of which cannot be isolated from the framework of development. Women MSMEs seem to plan strategically in a less structured and more informal manner than larger organizations while they might engage relatively more in an informal way of managing their activities. Entrepreneurship among women is relatively recent phenomenon. Women across India are displaying an attentiveness to be economically and socially empowered. Education and training programmes has shifted the position of women from kitchen to higher levels of professional activities. Women entrepreneurship is gaining importance in India. This paper attempts to understand the economic and social empowerment of women entrepreneurs through MSMEs.
