₹20.9 L(₹20,94,000) · ₹10–25LUp to 35% subsidy
Process plant · QC · Inventory-heavy

The pitch

Produces acetylene gas for industrial applications such as welding, cutting and metal fabrication.

Industrial customers (steel plants, welding shops, metal fabrication units) via direct sales and distributors. The plant houses a single acetylene generator and associated safety equipment. Operations involve 9 staff handling production, QC and inventory management with a working capital of 4 months.

Sample capital requirement: ₹20,94,000 covering plant, machinery, working capital and initial inventory.

Watch-outs

Idea-specific discussion points — not automatic disqualification

  • Safety Compliance

    Adherence to the Safety and Health Act, Fire Safety Act and local environmental regulations is mandatory; non‑compliance can halt operations.

  • Regulatory Approvals

    Obtaining the necessary permits (e.g., gas handling license, fire safety clearance) can be time‑consuming and may delay launch.

  • Market Demand Volatility

    Demand for acetylene is tied to construction and metal‑working cycles; seasonal dips can affect cash flow.

  • Supply Chain of Raw Materials

    Securing a reliable source of high‑purity hydrogen and oxygen is critical; price swings can impact production costs.

  • Figures are illustrative for discussion, not a sanction estimate.
  • Actual margin money and contribution depend on current PMEGP guidelines and implementing agency.
  • Land cost is generally excluded from project cost under the scheme.
  • Full-capacity revenue is estimated at 2× project cost (₹20.9 L) — adjust it to your own numbers.

Indicative only — actual bank DSCR calculations add back depreciation; treat this as a sense-check, not a bank figure. Verify with your CA/bank before applying.
