It provides a fertile ground for exploring the dynamic role of women in business and its implications for economic development. Women entrepreneurship in Delhi-NCR has seen an outstanding ascent because of a conjunction of variables including expanded instructive fulfillment among ladies, steady government strategies, and developing cultural standards. This paper utilizes a blended strategies approach, consolidating quantitative information examination and subjective contextual investigations to grasp the expansiveness and profundity of ladies' effect around here. The review recognizes key areas where lady’s business people are generally dynamic, like innovation, retail, and administrations, and inspects how their endeavors impact nearby economies, work creation, and advancement.
In order to determine the role of women-led businesses in regional economic development, the research conducts quantitative analyses of employment statistics, business performance metrics, and economic contributions. In order to gain an understanding of the difficulties and opportunities faced by women entrepreneurs, the study conducts qualitative interviews with business leaders, policymakers, and other female entrepreneurs. The findings highlight a number of significant effects that women's entrepreneurship has on the growth of the Delhi-NCR economy.
