INTRODUCTION TO ENTREPREURSHIP

11. EntrepreneurialDevelopment
11
Starting your own business can be an exciting and rewarding experience. It can offer numerous
advantages such as being your own boss, setting your own schedule and making a living doing
something you enjoy. But, becoming a successful entrepreneur requires thorough planning, creativity
and hard work.
Consider whether you have the following characteristics and skills commonly associated with
successful entrepreneurs:
1. Comfortable with taking risks: Being your own boss also means you’re the one making tough
decisions. Entrepreneurship involves uncertainty. Do you avoid uncertainty in life at all costs? If yes,
then entrepreneurship may not be the best fit for you. Do you enjoy the thrill of taking calculated
risks? Then read on.
2. Independent: Entrepreneurs have to make a lot of decisions on their own. If you find you can
trust your instincts — and you’re not afraid of rejection every now and then — you could be on your
way to being an entrepreneur.
3. Persuasive: You may have the greatest idea in the world, but if you cannot persuade
customers, employees and potential lenders or partners, you may find entrepreneurship to be
challenging. If you enjoy public speaking, engage new people with ease and find you make
compelling arguments grounded in facts, it’s likely you’re poised to make your idea succeed.
4. Able to negotiate: As a small business owner, you will need to negotiate everything from
leases to contract terms to rates. Polished negotiation skills will help you save money and keep your
business running smoothly.
5. Creative: Are you able to think of new ideas? Can you imagine new ways to solve problems?
Entrepreneurs must be able to think creatively. If you have insights on how to take advantage of new
opportunities, entrepreneurship may be a good fit.
6. Supported by others: Before you start a business, it’s important to have a strong support
system in place. You’ll be forced to make many important decisions, especially in the first months of
opening your business. If you do not have a support network of people to help you, consider finding
a business mentor. A business mentor is someone who is experienced, successful and willing to
provide advice and guidance. Read the Steps to Finding a Mentor article for help on finding and
working with a mentor.

Economic Reforms in India
India waited till July 1991 to integrate its economy with the world economy.
During the last years of the 1980’s and particularly in 1990-91, Indian economy entered an
unprecedented liquidity crisis. Instabilities in European economics and the Gulf war lid to India,
credit rating in international markets to fall considerably. Due to heavy outflow of the deposits of
NRI s from Indian banks, India was on the verge of default on external payment liabilities. The
situation called for drastic economic reforms and India adapted liberalization.
Salient Features of Economic Reforms
-Large scale privatization of former public sectors and direct foreign investment in all these sectors
formed the main features of the economic reforms of liberalization era.
-Except agriculture and plantations, all sectors are today open for foreign investments, with a cap up
to 100%which includes roads, ports, air ports, and telephone services and so on. Industrial licensing
was removed along with location restriction.
- Financial institutions saw more freedom with regards deciding the rate of interest to be charged
and fixing of interest rates or fixed deposits. The concept of PLR ((Prime Lending Rate) has been
introduced in bank borrowing. There is a free pricing of shares, and more powers are given to the
SEBI Banks can also approach capital markets for raising funds.
-Import restriction and the rates of customs tariffs have been reduced over the last few years. India
signed the WTO Agreement in 1994, and has accepted the commitment to liberalize its trade regime
under this agreement.

EFFECT OF INDUSTRIALISATION

18. EntrepreneurialDevelopment
18
The terms of production as well as employment the modern industrial development of India was
partly compared with the economic development of other industries or more with India’s economic
needs. It did not compensate for the displacement of the indigenous handicrafts. From a period of
the number of 1901- 1951 the number of people it provided employment to fill from 10.3 million
in 1901 to 8 million in 1951 even though the population increased by nearly 40 percent. It had little
effect on the problems of poverty and back of livelihood.
The Indian Industrial development was concentrated only in a few regions and cities of the country
and large parts of the country remained underdeveloped.
An important social consequence of industrial development however was the birth and growth of
two new social classes in Indian society the Industrial capitalist class and the modern working class.
These two classes represented new technology a new system of economic organization new social
relations, new idea and a new outlook. They were not weighted down by the burden of old
tradition, customs and styles of life and most importantly possessed an all India outlook. They were
vitally interested in the industrial development of the country and to a large extent reshaped the
country’s future post independence.

British policies and Attitude on Modern Industries
The modern industries had to develop without government help and often in operation to
British policy. British manufactures looked upon Indian textile and other industries as their rivals
and put pressure on the government of India to actively discourage industrial development in India
and enforce a policy of free trade upon their colony. The government invested little to ensure
growth of Indian industries and wherever forced to grant of Indian industries .They discriminated
against Indian owned industries. The Indian owned industries such as cement, Iron and steel and
glass were denied protection or given inadequate protection
On the other hand, foreign dominated industries such as the match industry were given the
protection they desired. Moreover, British imports were given special privileges under the system of
imperial preferences even thought Indians protested vehemently.
Commercialization of Agriculture
The commercialization of Indian agriculture spread from 1850-1947 and led to substantially
supporting progress of the country’s economy.
Commercialization came about through celebrate policy in the part of the British traders there was
building presence from British manufacturer industrialist and merchant to acquire more and more
of raw materials for the British industries . By offering a higher fact of market price , the peasants
were induced to substitute commercial crops for food crops as the farmer were more profitable
than the later. Consequently the peasants shifted to industrial crops and in some districts, the
movement for commercial agriculture became so strong that the peasants stated buying foodstuffs
from mandis for their domestic needs. This led to a fall in the production of food and consequently
devastating famines. Farmers of their intensity had occurred for the first time in the economic
history of India and are historically seen in the darkest period in the consciousness of the country.
Commercial agriculture was also, to some extent the result of the mounting demands of land
revenue by the state and excessive rent by the landlords from the peasantry.

21. EntrepreneurialDevelopment
21
The process of commercial agriculture necessitated by the Industrial Revolution was internalized by
the development of machinery in India, after 1850. Railways linked the interior of the county with
ports and harbors urban marketing centers and thus Indian agriculture began to produce for world
markets. Large quantities of wheat from Punjab, jute from Bengal and cotton from Bombay proceed
in for export to England.
The same railways which carries commercial from the various parts of the country brought back the
foreign machine -manufactured products to India Thus railways and link roads were instrumental
in intensifying commercial agriculture.
