Abstract	Youth entrepreneurship in India has emerged as a critical driver of economic growth, innovation, and employment generation, supported by a large demographic dividend and expanding digital infrastructure. Government initiatives such as Startup India and Make in India, along with increased access to technology, venture capital, and incubation networks, have created a conducive ecosystem for young entrepreneurs to launch and scale ventures across sectors including fintech, edtech, agritech, and social enterprises. Addressing these challenges requires coordinated efforts among policymakers, educational institutions, financial bodies, and industry stakeholders to strengthen entrepreneurial education, simplify compliance, and expand inclusive funding mechanisms. The objectives of promoting Youth entrepreneurs in India play a major role in innovation and job creation, but they face several structural and practical challenges. This paper is based on primary & secondary data which has been collected from various publication, reputed journals, magazines, newspapers, text book related topics, Government sites and various internet sources.
