The pitch

The unit manufactures decorative glassware from mineral-based raw material using a furnace and shaping processes, then applies finishing and quality checks before packaging.

B2B sales to interior decorators, hotels, and retail outlets; B2C sales through local markets and online platforms. The unit melts mineral-based raw material in a furnace, shapes glassware via blowing or molding, conducts quality checks, and packages the finished decorative items for shipment.

₹16,20,000 covers plant setup, furnace, raw material storage, and basic equipment.

Watch-outs

Idea-specific discussion points — not automatic disqualification

Raw material sourcing risk
Dependence on specific mineral deposits may cause supply fluctuations; ensure backup suppliers.
Quality control compliance
Glass defects can lead to rejection; implement strict QC protocols to meet BIS standards.
Regulatory approvals
Obtain necessary environmental and industrial licenses; non-compliance can delay operations.
Skill gap
Manufacturing requires trained operators; plan for skill development or hiring.
