A Study on Entrepreneurship and Family Business Management in India with Special Focus on the Andaman Islands

Two important cornerstones of India's financial system are family business management and entrepreneurship. Since families own more than 70% of enterprises in India, these innovations have a significant impact on employment, GDP, and national development. Simultaneously, the emergence of a vibrant entrepreneurial ecosystem, propelled by government support and technological breakthroughs, is reorganising the establishment, growth, and expansion of firms. The expansion of family businesses and entrepreneurial endeavours in India, their socioeconomic impact, important issues like professionalization and succession planning, and the function of origination and governance in promoting long-term development are all examined in this paper. It also discusses how, in the Indian setting, modern entrepreneurial techniques are merging with traditional family-run structures.
