Entrepreneurship is widely recognized as an important driver of inclusive growth, particularly through the micro, small and medium enterprise (MSME) sector. In recent years, entrepreneurial well-being has emerged as a crucial factor influencing enterprise sustainability and development outcomes. This study examines the role of MSMEs in promoting inclusive growth in Assam and analyzes the linkage between entrepreneurial well-being and inclusive growth outcomes using secondary evidence. The study adopts a descriptive and analytical research design based on data drawn from government reports, MSME publications, national surveys, and recent empirical studies. The findings indicate that MSMEs contribute significantly to inclusive growth through employment generation, livelihood creation, and regional economic participation. Further, factors such as access to finance, income stability, and business resilience enhance entrepreneurial well-being, which in turn strengthens enterprise sustainability and inclusive growth processes. The study highlights the importance of integrating entrepreneurial well-being into MSME and regional development policies to foster inclusive economic development in Assam.
