Abstract
This chapter explores the multifaceted linkages between microfinancing, financial inclusion, and women empowerment in India. It delves into the key mechanisms through which improved access to microfinancing and other financial services fosters women's economic, social, and political empowerment. The current study helps the financial regulators, government, and the banking industry to know the state of financial inclusion and to analyse the impact and effectiveness of the initiatives and measures taken by them on the empowerment of women in India. It is also providing in-depth knowledge to policy makers to review the existing policies regarding financial inclusion through microfinancing so as to have a substantial impact on women empowerment.
