Samadhan Projects
The pitch
Hand‑crafted bindis (traditional Indian head ornaments) are produced using a combination of hand‑loom and semi‑automatic stitching machines, finished with embellishments such as beads, sequins and metallic thread.
Primary buyers are brides, bridesmaids and festival participants sourced through local wedding planners, retail boutiques, and online marketplaces like Amazon and Etsy. Secondary channels include bulk sales to event organizers and cultural festivals. The workshop operates 6 days a week with a team of 4 artisans. Finished bindis undergo quality checks for size, stitching integrity, and embellishment placement before packaging.
Sample cost ₹18,85,000 covers the purchase of a 200 sq ft workshop, a 2‑machine stitching unit, raw materials (cotton, silk, beads, thread), initial inventory, basic office equipment, and a 3‑month working capital buffer.
