India: Government Procurement in India is Skewed to Female Entrepreneurs by 3%

The government electronic marketplace (GeM), the
national public procurement portal, is owned by the
Indian government and led by the ministry of industry and
commerce. Government departments and Indian central
public sector enterprises (CPSE) use the site to purchase
everyday goods and services. Since its inception, GeM has
processed more than 1.1 million orders with a total value of
about $239 million.
To promote entrepreneurship by women, GeM launched
"Womaniya on GeM", an initiative to support women
entrepreneurs and women's self-help groups (WSHGs) in
selling products directly to Indian government departments
and institutions. Under the initiative, GeM has a page
