10 Women ‘Power Players’ of Bio Research & Policy
As revealed in Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman's Economic Survey 2024-
25, for the first time in seven years, India’s female labour force participation
rate (FLFPR) has seen a significant rise, jumping from 23.3 per cent in 2017-18 to 41.7 per cent in 2023-24. The Economic Survey underscores how womenled businesses thrive under government support. As of October 31, 2024, over 73,151 startups with at least one woman director have been recognised under the Startup India Initiative, nearly half of all registered startups in India. Additionally, Union Budget 2025-26 has listed new initiatives to support women
entrepreneurs across various sectors within the industry. While the number of
women entrepreneurs in the country has been increasing over the years, there has not been much change at the women leadership level in both the public and private sectors. There are very few women leaders who have the opportunity to take charge of an entire academic institute or a government posting, thereby contributing to the growth of our country.

Budget Undershot?

When it comes to the healthcare sector, the budget presented by Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman, no doubt, brings relief to patients, particularly those suffering from cancer, rare and severe chronic diseases, with making 36 more life-saving drugs basic customs duty free and reducing the duty on six more drugs to concessional 5 per cent.
