Entrepreneurship shows the path to women's independence, which meets the demand and desire for higher living conditions. SHG has paved the door for rural women to achieve economic independence. The research was conducted in the South Tripura district of the North-eastern state of Tripura. The district was selected purposively due to the fact that it has the highest number of Self Help Groups in the state. 2 blocks namely Jolaibari and Satchand were selected purposively based on the SHG membership. In the study area, the majority of the rural women (60.83%) had medium entrepreneurial behaviour. The analysis of the correlation coefficient between components of entrepreneurial behaviour with their overall entrepreneurial behaviour showed that all the components i.e. innovativeness, decision-making ability, risk orientation, scientific orientation, competitiveness, leadership ability, need for independence, achievement motivation, managerial ability, and self-confidence, had a positive and strong association with overall entrepreneurial behaviour of the respondents which found significance at 1% level.
