Evaluating the effectiveness of SHGs in enhancing the financial conditions of women entrepreneurs would shed light on the tangible benefits these groups provide. Furthermore, the assessment in fostering entrepreneurial skills among women entrepreneurs is crucial. Considering the multitude of determinants, both demographic and SHG-related variables, it becomes imperative to measure their association with the level of entrepreneurial skills developed among SHG members. Additionally, exploring the challenges faced by SHG women entrepreneurs during the operation of their enterprises is essential for devising effective support mechanisms. The study necessitates a holistic approach, encompassing economic impact, skill development, determinants of entrepreneurial skills and the challenges faced during business operations. This comprehensive understanding is crucial for fostering an environment that empowers women entrepreneurs and promotes sustainable economic growth.
