I. INTRODUCTION
Entrepreneurship is considered to be a dimension of
strategic posture. This involves firm’s risk taking capacity,
its ability to be competitively aggressive, proactive manners,
and products innovative. There are many factors which
effects entrepreneurship in India. Firstly, external variable
which includes, environmental dynamism, environmental
hostility & technological sophistication. Secondly, internal
variables which includes top management values,
organisational resources, organisational culture and
resources. (Vivek Mishra, 2016)
Except these roles of government taxes, sponsorships,
grants and government policies play important role in
growth of entrepreneurs in India.
Entrepreneurship and small business development are
central core of economy of particular country which are
giving its entrepreneurs a keen interest and better chance of
an improved economy. In acknowledgement of the need for
entrepreneurship policies, many countries have executed
both general and specific policies to promote entrepreneurial
activities. General policies such as tax rates, labour laws,
and market regulations have molded the entrepreneurship
environment to a great extent in different economies. Also,
some important policies have been specially beleaguered to
enhance entrepreneurship. For instance, the Small Business
Innovation Research (SBIR) program established in
America elevated the survival and growth rates of SMEs in
the region (Gilbert, Audretsch, & McDougall, 2004). In
Europe, the Department for Trade and Industry (DTI)
develop policies to promote entrepreneurial activities and
encourage SMEs to trade internationally (Wright, Westhead,
& Ucbasaran, 2007).
In field of business, policy entrepreneurship involves
people taking risk in order to create new business ventures,
to gain advantage of their competitors, and to maximize
their profits. The term policy entrepreneur may refers to
someone who found new business /policy project, or a
businessman who seeks to gain profit through subsidies,
protectionism, government contracts or other such
favourable arrangements with government through personal
influence (also known as rent seeker).

everyone has not only recognised its magic but also seen
long lasting positive effects on economy of countries. On
one hand, where it has given income to nationalised banks
and international banks , by enjoying interest on loans taken
by entrepreneurs for developing industrial set- ups , on the
other hand ,it provides job to labours , small merchants ,non

industries.
Not only entrepreneurs but government of different states
and cities are taking interest in promoting entrepreneurship
(Shane & Ventakaraman, 2000). Governments are busy in
finding relationship between growing entrepreneurship and
improved socio-economic conditions. There are many
countries like Australia, America (Isenberg,2010) and
Canada, Israel (Senor & Singer,2009) which have proved
giving enhancement to local vendor ships and entrepreneurs
through policy makings has given direct positive impact on
their economic and financial growth.
Entrepreneurship policy can be described as policy which
helps in starting a start-up, helps to continue it and motivate
entrepreneur (Lundstrom & Stevenson, 2005) to bring good
results as end result for process of entrepreneurship. It
should not only help in economic development of people but
should also help in promoting skills, opportunities and
growth in their life.
Not only policies help in promoting entrepreneurships but
its self motivation of individual persons, which plays a big
role in getting success, you need skills, motivation, local
personal network to utilize advantages of policies .
Now budding nations like India are planning to promote
entrepreneurships, but still they lack knowledge about how
to create policies which help in promoting
entrepreneurships. In this paper, we will try to focus on
areas which are require to highlight to promote
entrepreneurship (Vivek Mishra,2018) in developing nations
like India .
