The unit produces a ready‑to‑use, eco‑friendly cleaning solution derived from Bajra (pearl millet) extracts, packaged in 500 ml PET bottles for household and small commercial use.
Retail supermarkets, local grocery chains, online marketplaces (Amazon, Flipkart), and direct sales to small hotels and restaurants via B2B channels. Raw Bajra is sourced from local farmers; the cleaning solution is extracted using a low‑temperature aqueous process, followed by filtration, concentration, and bottling. Quality control checks include pH, viscosity, and microbial limits. Finished goods are stored in climate‑controlled warehouses before distribution.
Sample project cost ₹24,83,000 covers purchase of a 200 sq ft production floor, 5 kW power supply, 10 kW water treatment unit, 2 kW mixer, 2 kW centrifuge, 1 kW filtration system, 5 kW packaging line, 2 kW labeling machine, 2 kW palletizer, 5 kW storage shelving, 2 kW office equipment, and working capital for 3 months of raw material procurement.

Watch-outs
Idea-specific discussion points — not automatic disqualification
Raw Material Price Volatility
Bajra prices can fluctuate seasonally; secure long‑term contracts or buffer stock to mitigate cost spikes.
Market Acceptance of Novel Product
Consumer awareness of Bajra‑based cleaning solutions is limited; invest in targeted marketing and product trials to build trust.
Regulatory Compliance
Ensure compliance with FSSAI (if food‑grade claims), BIS standards for household chemicals, and local environmental regulations for waste disposal.
Capital Utilization
High upfront equipment cost requires disciplined cash flow management; avoid over‑stocking inventory before sales ramp‑up.
Labor Skill Gap
Operators need training in extraction and bottling processes; plan for skill development workshops.
