The primary motto of Digital India’s mission is”Power to Empower”. Women's empowerment plays a crucial role in the overall development of any society besides positively impacting the daily lives of women. The digital revolution brings immense potential to improve social and economic outcomes for women and has also made a metamorphic change in the entire lifestyle and livelihoods system. The winds of radical change in the fields of employment and information technology have brought with them a wide range of opportunities for women in India and across the globe. A radical development in mobile technology has brought the world to one’s fingertips and has allowed women to update themselves about everyday national and global news. Education not only enables rural women in digitization but also helps them to empower themselves economically. . In India, self-help groups-led microfinance programmes have achieved significant success in the livelihoods promotion, and women empowerment. The recent inclusion of the usage of digital technology has changed the whole self-help group (SHG) movement and has vast potential to enhance the welfare of women’s self-help groups in a variety of ways. Based on the studies and reports, the paper tries to elaborate on the latest developments in digital financial inclusion in the country and its impact on the lives and livelihoods of women SHGs. To acquire the maximum benefits of the digital revolution, there is a need to enhance the capacities of all stakeholders involved in this SHG movement.
