This solved the problem of double spending and duplicate currency. In 2009, the Genesis Block was mined. Ever since, the Bitcoin story has only got bigger, and interesting!

All taxpayers falling in the remaining income brackets will also get a benefit of INR 12,500 each.
However, for those with income more than INR 50 lakhs to up to1 crore, the tax burden has been increased by imposing an additional surcharge of 10% on the 30% tax amount. A surcharge of 15% will be applicable to those with an income more than 1 crore.
Also, there is no change in tax deduction limits such as Section 80C, 80D for FY 2017-18.

7. CHALLENGES AND OPPORTUNITIES
The emergence of women entrepreneurs in India is certainly a matter of pride for the country, but there is still a long way to go for them. According to The
2015 Female Entrepreneurship Index by The Global Entrepreneurship and Development Institute (GEDI), United States ranks at number 1, whereas India ranks
as low as number 70. The big question here is why such a huge gap?
In India, entrepreneurship is traditionally considered to be a male thing.
Society still does not wholeheartedly approve women to become self-
employed or take entrepreneurship for their livelihood. This is probably
one of the significant causes that have deterred female entrepreneurship in
India. A woman entrepreneur is believed to be stuck in a tussle between her
domestic chores and business activities. Since handling house-hold activities
is considered to be an Indian womanâs forte and primary task, women getting
into entrepreneurship is not highly acknowledged in India.
Why India Fails at Providing Women-Conducive Business Environment to Females?
Prevalence of Age-Old Patriarchal Norms
The huge gap in the entrepreneurship ranking is because there are issues unique to our countryâs sociocultural dynamics that hinder the growth of female
entrepreneurs. Kick-starting a business is not an easy task, and it is certainly not easy for women in India. Our country predominantly being a male dominated
society, offers little to nurture the leadership skills of females. Some of the challenges faced by females aspiring to start a business in India are:

8. Reluctance of Financial
Institutions in Funding
Women-Businesses
No or Limited Access to
Education
Low Access to Key
Resources
Banks and other financial institutions
generally do not see potential in female-
owned businesses. Even private investors
are not very interested in providing
financial assistance to them. This is
mainly because there is a general notion
that women entrepreneurs are not so
gifted with entrepreneurial aptitude and
managerial skills as compared to their male
counterparts. As a result, their access to
business credit facilities is very limited. The
funding landscape is still not very conducive
for women businesses.
A great percentage of the female
entrepreneurs in India are still illiterate or
semi-literate. Most of them are based in
rural areas where they have limited access to
education due to poor economic background
or outdated family beliefs. This eventually
leads to lesser number of educated female
entrepreneurs in the country. Even those
who are literate are not very well-equipped
with advanced degrees / diplomas in
business or entrepreneurship unlike female
entrepreneurs of western countries.
In India, women entrepreneurs encounter
the shortage of key resources for their
businesses. Notably many women-owned
businesses cease to operate after a year
or two due to lack of adequate resources
especially in rural areas. Besides, high cost of
production is also detrimental to the success
of female businesses.

9. Women entrepreneurs can achieve success if only they believe in their gut instincts and defy all the
traditional stereotypes. They need to adopt the right approach coupled with the required skill-set to succeed
because after all, itâs just about a bit of determination and courage that makes all the difference.
The Grit it Takes to Call the Shots in a Manâs World
Adaptive Attitude
Business is a dynamic concept, more
so in todayâs world. The present-day
entrepreneurship doesnât allow you to
be rigid or orthodox. You need to comply
with the changes going around and at
the same time, devise new innovations
to reach the zenith. Of course, you need
to have a specific blueprint for your
business, but following it religiously is
not advisable as entrepreneurship is a
continuous learning process.
Phlegmatic Approach
As an entrepreneur, you need to have a
stolid temperament no matter what the
circumstances are. If you are a female
entrepreneur then it is more applicable
for you as you will always be judged on
gender-based prejudices. You need to
ditch your worries and emotional stress
as they end up preventing you from
taking bolder steps.
Command Authority
You need to show authority in business
but, without mixing it with arrogance
and aggression. Basically, itâs all about
justifying your position and using your
power for the interest of your business.
A non-authoritative approach can lead to
complacency that might eventually derail
your entrepreneurial growth.

16. FROM GRASSROOTS TO TOP-SHOOTS
Born to a middle class family in 1933, Ela Bhatt
spent her childhood in an environment full of
learning. She obtained a degree in law, and
soon started working as a lawyer in the Textile
Labour Association (TLA) in Ahmedabad,
Gujarat. While working she realized that even
though women were doing labor-intensive
work, they were rather âinvisibleâ. This is when
she thought that such women could grow
and register their presence with the help of
adequate funds. That thought ultimately lead
to the inception of Self Employed Women
Association (SEWA). Today SEWA provides
financial aid to women for buying solar bulbs
and then renting them out or selling them to
the families living in towns and villages. For
her exceptional contribution in the field of
labor and microfinance, Ela Bhatt has been
awarded the coveted title of Padmashri and
Ramon Magsaysay Award as well.
Thinlas Chorol, a simple girl born in
the remote village of Takmachik in
Sham region of Ladakh, is the only
female from Ladakh who has been
trained professionally in the field
of mountaineering. She studied in
SECMOL, (The Studentsâ Educational
and Cultural Movement of Ladakh).
While at SECMOL, she joined âAround
Ladakh with Studentsâ (ALS), a travel
agency owned by SECMOL. She
observed that women were extremely
low on confidence, and this is why
very few of them were willing to work
as a trekking guide. With an aim of
developing a society where women
could choose mountaineering as a
career and earn their livelihood, she
established Ladakhi Womenâs Travel
Company in 2009.
Born in Mumbai, Chetna Gala Sinha holds a
masterâs degree in Commerce and Economics,
and is the founder of Mann Deshi Mahila
Sahakari Bank. Her entrepreneurial journey
began when it was brought to her notice
that banks would not allow a woman to open
an account, only because she was illiterate.
According to Chetna, âJust because a woman
doesnât know how to read doesnât imply
that she canât manage her money.â After
a lot of hard work, her dream of opening a
bank came true in 1997. Furthermore, in
2007, she established the Udyogini Business
School in collaboration with HSBC. Chetna
has been honored with prestigious awards
like Entrepreneurship Development Award,
Godfrey Phillips Bravery Amodini Award,
Rani Laxmiibai Puraskar, and Jankidevi Bajaj
Puraskar Award for Rural Entrepreneurship
to name just a few.

SlideShare
2006
SlideShare allows people to share their
presentations online.
Rashmiâs brother, Amit Ranjan attended
BarCamp, a conference where a couple of
people having a mutual topic of interest
gathered and shared their thoughts and views.
When it was time for the presenters to share
the presentations, USB sticks had to be passed
across, or emails had be sent to one another.
This fragmented presentation sharing process
gave birth to the idea of building SlideShare,
an online tool where displaying presentations
would be extremely simple. With an aim of
simplifying the technological complications
that affect the web users, Rashmi along with
her husband, Jonathan Boutelle, and her
brother, Amit Ranjan built SlideShare.
Forest Essentials
2000
High quality beauty products
inheriting the property of Ayurveda.
Mira Kulkarni had her home

on the subject and with an idea
of modernizing the traditional
ayurveda products, she created an
exotic range of beauty products
called Forest Essentials.

BIBA
1986
BIBA offers a wide range of aesthetically
designed ethnic apparels for women.
Mina Bindra never thought that she
would enter the world of business, but
she gave it a try and started a clothing
line, BIBA, with merely Rs.8000 which
she secured as a loan. In the initial years,
she worked just with the thought of
keeping herself occupied, but in to time,
the business expanded tremendously.
Her business was joined by her son,
Siddharath Bindra in 1997. Today,
her designing business, BIBA is a pan-
India brand and loved by one and all.
Currently, there are around 150 exclusive
BIBA outlets and 225 multi-brand outlets
in approximately 65 cities.
Baggit
1985
Baggit is one of the leading womenâs
handbag brands.
âWhen one door closes, another opensâ
â this saying turned out to be quite true
for Nina Lekhi, the founder of Baggit. She
had excelled in academics throughout,
and she was taken aback when she got
to know that she failed in her first year
of art exams at Sophia Polytechnic.
This is when she got enrolled in interior
design and screen printing classes,
and eventually started designing and
selling canvas bags. In no time, she
realized that the Indian women had not
much explored the sector of womenâs
handbags. By unleashing her creativity,
she started the brand in 1985.
