Abstract
It has been observed that the societies that discriminate
against women have higher poverty and lower standard
of living and economic growth comparatively. As such,
participation of women in entrepreneurship seems to
be a pre-requisite for the growth and development in
that sector, resulting in overall economic growth. In
line with this view, the present paper aims to study
the impact of demographic variables on the financial
performance of women entrepreneurs. The research
was conducted on 100 women entrepreneurs selected
through convenient random sampling technique. The
hypothesis under study was tested using Pearson’s
Chi- Square test. The results of this study implied
that demographic variables do significantly impact
the financial performance of women entrepreneurs in
India.
