However, most of these studies are based in Europe and the developed countries. Moreover, most of these studies use global entrepreneurship monitor (GEM) data to understand such differences. The current study collects data from five different Indian regions to understand the regional variations in an economically, culturally and geographically diverse country. Based on 11 different variables derived from the GEM questionnaire and other studies the current study wants to verify ‘perception differences for entrepreneurial attitude and entrepreneurial ecosystem in India’. One-way analysis of variance was used to verify possible mean differences among different regions of Jammu, Kashmir, Gujarat, Punjab and Karnataka. The study uses 407 student samples from various higher learning institutions in these regions. Results suggest that EA and entrepreneurial ecosystem (EE) significantly differ in the country’s northern, southern and western regions. This study brings into notice significant policy gaps and developments that affect the EE and the attitudes of the regional population. The research can be extended with newer regions and more extensive datasets to understand this phenomenon more clearly in the context of emerging and developing countries UR - http://library.ediindia.ac.in:8181/xmlui/handle/123456789/14145 ER -
