摘要：SHG is a novel and innovative organizational setup in India for women upliftment and welfare. All women in India are given a chance to join any one of the SHGs for training and development to be prospective entrepreneurs and skilled workers. The current entrepreneurial status of the women is crucially dependent on economic empowerment; these SHGs could generate income and employment to build their empowerment through entrepreneurship. So it is necessary to know the association between the entrepreneurial behaviour and current entrepreneurial status of women entrepreneurs. The present investigation was carried out in three districts of Andhra Pradesh viz., Chittoor (from Rayalaseema region), East Godavari (from Coastal region) and Srikakulam (from North Coastal region) during 2016-18. The current entrepreneurial status viz., net income from the enterprise, employment generation, monthly saving, monthly expenditure, social recognition and skill in paraprofessional work were significantly associated with the entrepreneurial behaviour of women entrepreneurs of self-help groups. Whereas, debt status was not significantly associated with the entrepreneurial behaviour of women entrepreneurs. Hence, there is every need to focus more on enhancing the entrepreneurial behaviour of the women entrepreneurs of SHGs through different capacity building activities.
