Offline Work From Home Options For Women in India

Work from home is not a new trend. It has become quite popular in the last decade. The reason is apparent, married women in India, in most of the households, are expected to stay at home. And they are sometimes forced to leave their jobs and stay back at home forever managing the house, kids, the daily tasks of cooking, cleaning, washing clothes, and whatever else it takes.
It is an old school mentality but still prevalent in India. Sometimes, women quit their jobs due to their reasons. But a lot has changed after the internet has become accessible even in the remote areas of India.
Whenever I meet or talk to my female friends, the most common queries asked by them are:

• How do I start working from home?
• What is the work from home options for married women in India? 
• How to earn by working from home, so that I don't have to depend on anyone for at least my expenses?

And my response to them is if you are serious about working from home, ask yourself these questions:
1. Are you ready to work from home? Do you have genuine interest and time to invest?
2. What skills do you have?

There are many offline and online work from home opportunities for housewives and moms in India. Based on your experience or skills you can choose an option.
