During the year 2011, this study looked at the influence of microfinance on the gender-based income-generating activities of Khushhalli Bank Ltd clients in the Quetta urban zone. The primary data was acquired from 80 clients (60 beneficiaries and 20 non-beneficiaries) using a structured questionnaire and a cross-sectional experimental methodology. T-tests were used to assess the data that had been collected. In terms of increased company performance, the data reveal that microfinance has a beneficial influence on both male and female beneficiaries when compared to non-beneficiaries. It has no effect on the average sale revenue of both male and female microbusiness owners. While it has a considerable impact on male established micro-entrepreneurs’ average net profit, average fixed assets, and average net worth, it has no effect on female established micro-entrepreneurs. When comparing gender-based company performance, it is clear that male-owned microenterprises are able to create higher revenue and net income. The same results are reached when fixed assets and net worth are increased. As a result, we can certainly state that male clients are better able to use microfinance services than female clients.
