When it comes to the socioeconomic growth of a nation, entrepreneurship is one of the most important factors that contributes to the creation of employment possibilities, the utilization of local resources, and the mobilization of financial resources. It is necessary to provide financial assistance to business owners in order to prevent them from experiencing a lack of finances, which would then lead to their being ill and ultimately closing their doors. Entrepreneurs who are members of the Dalit community are still confined to their traditional occupations, which are occupations that require physical labor and are essentially low-level wage jobs. Those individuals who do consider going into self-employed businesses do not do so because they are afraid of the social pressure they will face and the possibility of losing sub-caste networks that serve as sources of mutual insurance policies. Secondly, in order to get around the challenges they face when attempting to form networks that span multiple social groups, Dalit business owners typically seek to develop their internal relationships and then leverage these bonds for economic goals. Specifically, this article focuses on the role that SIDBI plays in the promotion of dalit entrepreneurs in India.
