Manufactures precision-engineered aluminium castings for industrial machinery, automotive parts, and construction equipment using sand casting and CNC machining processes.
Sells to engineering workshops, OEM manufacturers, and industrial equipment suppliers through local trade networks and industrial exhibitions. Requires skilled machinists for CNC operations, quality control for dimensional accuracy, and inventory management for raw materials and finished goods.
₹17,87,000 sample cost covers machinery (casting furnace, CNC lathe), workshop setup, raw material inventory, and initial operational expenses.
Watch-outs
Idea-specific discussion points — not automatic disqualification
Raw Material Costs
Fluctuating prices of aluminium scrap and alloying elements may impact profit margins.
