The women of modern India have largely breached the patriarchal walls and are joining the workforce at a moment when Bharat is also seeing a paradigm developmental shift. Read our full Budget 2024 coverage here In today’s Narendra Modi-government-led India, the Nehruvian philosophy of asserting the condition of a nation by looking at the status of its women is still true and perhaps it will forever be valid. World Bank data shows India’s female labour force participation rate was 19.2% in 2021, contributing 17% of the country’s gross domestic product (GDP), which is relatively low for a nation dreaming of becoming a $5 trillion economy by 2025. The International Monetary Fund (IMF) stated that achieving gender equality in India, meaning equal participation of women in the labor force as men, could potentially elevate India's GDP by 27%. According to the World Bank, Indian women contribute to the economy at 17% of GDP, which is less than half of the global average. If approximately 50% of women could join the workforce, India might increase its growth by 1.5 percentage points, reaching 9% annually.
