Women's economic condition in nations like India is appalling, especially in rural areas where they have little options to earn money and are denied economic independence on a social and cultural level. The Self Help Groups (SHGs) have paved the way for the economic independence of rural women. Women Entrepreneurs play an important role in the present economy. Through the process of entrepreneurship, one person might become self-employed and give other people a job. Lack of financial and familial support, marketing, knowledge, suitable training, proper education, mobility, and other issues are common for women business owners. They were compelled to run a business because it was not something they wanted to do. In light of the several steps the Indian government has taken, under which NABARD has given them access to microloans and improve economic status. The provision of adequate microfinance in time to the women folk for their personal needs, the family and income generating activity by reliable agencies would naturally generate confidence and zeal among them for the performance of their activities. It is based on the recognition that the ability of the poor women for entrepreneurship could be encouraged with the availability of small-scale loans. There are several ways of microfinance provided by the government among which the most popular is Self Help Groups (SHGs).This paper reviews concisely the literature in this field and addresses particularly role of entrepreneurs in promoting Women.
