Watch-outs

Idea-specific discussion points — not automatic disqualification

  • Regulatory Compliance

    Must obtain FSSAI registration and a cosmetic product license before production begins.

  • Quality Control

    Consistent product quality is critical to avoid recalls; establish SOPs and regular testing.

  • Market Saturation

    Competition from established brands is high; differentiate through natural ingredients and local sourcing.

  • Cash Flow Management

    High upfront costs for raw materials and packaging require robust working capital planning.

  • 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 (₹14.9 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.
