Economically active population is one of the most important human resources for any growing economy. But the issue is how the country capitalised these resources. The country like India which experienced demographic transition is unable to reap the benefits of an on-going demographic dividend. Even though half of the population in India are women, only 25.51 per cent of them are in workforce to the total female population. Thus, economic boom bypassed nearly 75 per cent Indian women. It is also observed that over the time period female work participation rate declined. Improvement in socio-economic status of household may be the main driving force to withdraw women from labour market.
