However, currently, only 14% of businesses in India are led by women. 

The latest census indicates that of 58.5 million entrepreneurs in India,

about 8.05 million (13.76%) are women. While there has been some growth in the number of women entrepreneurs, it's been slow and uneven, and more progress is needed

More than half of parents are too busy to enjoy the fun of parenting, according to a new survey.

The recent poll of 2,000 parents (with children aged 3–16) found that 55 percent believe they’re missing out on the fun of parenting due to their other obligations.

In fact, 67 percent of parents worry about missing special moments while their little ones are still young – and 40 percent admit they’ve already missed at least one important milestone in their child’s life.

Results showed that 78 percent wish they had more time to spend with their kids, while 82 percent of the parents studied feel their children are simply growing up too quickly.
