Particularly in emerging nations like India, women's empowerment has become an essential feature of inclusive economic development. In an effort to raise women's socioeconomic standing, the Indian government and several state governments have implemented a number of welfare programs focused on women over the past few decades. Enhancing financial independence, encouraging entrepreneurship, expanding credit availability, and guaranteeing social security are the main objectives of these programs.

Rapid urbanisation and economic expansion in Bangalore Urban District have given women both possibilities and challenges. Despite the city's reputation as a center for innovation and technology, there are still gaps in women's financial inclusion, employment prospects, and income, particularly for those from economically disadvantaged backgrounds. A number of welfare programs, including the Udyogini Scheme, Shramashakti Scheme, Mathrushree Scheme, and others, have been put in place to address these problems with the goal of promoting financial empowerment and enhancing general well-being.
