Samadhan Projects
The pitch
Produce traditional gajak (a roasted sweet chickpea flour snack) using a small-scale roasting and shaping plant, followed by packaging and distribution.
Retailers in local sweet shops, supermarkets, and online marketplaces; direct sales to consumers via e-commerce and local stalls. The plant operates in a 200 m² space with a dedicated roasting unit, cooling area, packaging line, and a small QC station. Inventory management is critical due to the perishable nature of the product.
Sample cost ₹22,37,000 covers a 200 m² kitchen space, roasting and cooling equipment, packaging machinery, storage racks, and initial inventory of raw materials.
Demand shape for this sample line — advisory, not a market study.
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
Demand watch-out: Generic demand assumptions fail when the product is highly specialized — validate with local buyers before locking capacity.
Derived from idea type and sector — not a survey or government market report.

Idea-specific discussion points — not automatic disqualification
Raw Material Price Volatility
Flour, sugar, and ghee prices can fluctuate, impacting cost of goods sold. Mitigate by locking in bulk contracts.
Food Safety Compliance
FSSAI registration and adherence to food safety standards are mandatory. Failure to comply can halt production.
Shelf Life & Storage
Gajak has a limited shelf life; improper storage can lead to spoilage and loss of revenue.
Packaging Regulations
Packaging must meet labeling and safety standards; non-compliance can result in fines.
Labor Law Compliance
Ensure proper documentation for workers and adherence to minimum wage and working hour regulations.
