Enhancing women’s participation in the workforce can significantly boost GDP. Despite progress in sectors like IT or banking, many women remain in low-paid, informal work. Government efforts like maternity benefit extensions, SHG movements, and priority lending to female entrepreneurs aim to close gender gaps.
