Abstract : This study explores the impact of rural financial inclusion on entrepreneurial growth in tribal communities, focusing on the role of financial services access, government support programs, technology adoption, and social and cultural factors. Using a descriptive and analytical research design, the study examines how these factors influence entrepreneurial activities in two selected tribal districts. Data were collected from 160 rural entrepreneurs, small business owners, and beneficiaries of financial inclusion initiatives, using structured questionnaires and interviews. The findings indicate that access to financial services, government programs, technology adoption, and social-cultural factors significantly contribute to entrepreneurial growth, enhancing income generation, business expansion, and employment creation. The study provides important implications for policymakers, financial institutions, and entrepreneurs, emphasizing the need for tailored financial products, government support, and technology-driven solutions to foster sustainable growth in rural tribal areas.
