Title A name given to the resource Discussion on ostracised transgender individuals and entrepreneurship through review of literature Subject The topic of the resource Entrepreneurial motivations; Entrepreneurship; Transgender challenges; Transgender entrepreneurs; Transgender individuals Description An account of the resource Transgender individuals are the most deteriorated individuals in society. They face a wide range of trodden lives and setbacks in their everyday life. They encounter challenges and difficulties from the time they violate the social norms, they are also humiliated from their biological families and are sent to live a life of their own. In India, the Mughal period was termed to be the golden years for transgender individuals. It was after colonisation and implementation of the Criminal Tribes Act 1871 transgender individuals were treated brutally and eventually begging and sex work became their only source of income. Alongside, entrepreneurship proved to be a success factor as it brought the shunned women into the mainstream society. Thereby, entrepreneurship increases social capital and thus encourages transgenders in job creation activities. Despite a dire situation, there are transgender individuals who have faced all odds and have proved to set benchmarks in the society in varied fields. There are sporadic transgender individual entrepreneurs in the country who have paved their way into the entrepreneurial world, which is an important area to be explored. The study focuses on literature relating to transgender individuals, challenges faced by transgender individuals, entrepreneurial motivations and also transgender entrepreneurs. 2020 SERSC.
