We present a hybrid quantum-classical framework for synthetic data generation using a Quantum Circuit Born Machine (QCBM) to address these limitations. The proposed approach exploits quantum mechanical properties -- superposition and entanglement -- within a parameterized variational quantum circuit to model complex probability distributions that are difficult for classical generative methods to capture. Experiments are conducted on two tabular benchmark datasets: the Iris dataset and the Telco Customer Churn dataset. Preprocessing includes normalization and PCA-based dimensionality reduction to enable efficient basis encoding for quantum circuits. The QCBM is trained by minimizing Kullback-Leibler (KL) divergence between real and generated data distributions using a gradient-based parameter-shift optimization rule. Augmenting training data with QCBM-generated synthetic samples at 40-50% of the minority class improves F1-score by approximately 5-15% and minority-class recall by 10-25%. Cross-domain evaluations (Train on Synthetic, Test on Real; and Train on Real, Test on Synthetic) reveal a performance gap of only 3-10%, indicating strong distributional fidelity. Comparative analysis against classical oversampling methods -- SMOTE, Borderline-SMOTE, KMeansSMOTE, and SVM-SMOTE -- shows that QCBM achieves competitive classification performance and produces lower Maximum Mean Discrepancy (MMD) on the Telco dataset, suggesting superior structural similarity in certain imbalanced settings. These findings establish QCBM as a viable complementary tool for data augmentation, particularly for low-dimensional structured tabular data with class imbalance.
