Buyers
Local households and small businesses are the default demand base for Samadhan sample lines unless the product name points to a clearer pack.
Channels
Local retail
Order / referral
Wholesale where relevant
Seasonality
Steady year-round
Treat demand as year-round until a more specific product pack applies.

Watch-outs
Idea-specific discussion points — not automatic disqualification
Material Cost Fluctuations
Fabric prices can rise due to seasonal demand; maintain a buffer stock or negotiate fixed rates with suppliers.
Skill Gap
Ensuring consistent quality requires skilled weavers and tailors; invest in short‑term training or hire experienced staff.
Cash‑Flow Timing
Payments from B2B clients may be delayed; secure a short‑term working‑capital facility to cover production costs.
Compliance with GST
Maintain proper invoicing and GST returns; non‑compliance can lead to penalties.
Market Saturation
Local competition is high; differentiate through unique designs or eco‑friendly fabrics.
