The pitch

Manufactures a hand‑held mosquito racket that uses a high‑frequency electric grid to kill mosquitoes on contact.

Retail sales to households, hotels, restaurants, and health‑care facilities via local distributors, e‑commerce platforms and direct doorstep delivery. Production runs in 3 shifts with 30 workers; raw materials sourced locally (bamboo, steel, LED modules); quality control at assembly and final testing stages; inventory managed via FIFO to keep components fresh.

₹23,54,000 (sample cost) covers a 200 m² manufacturing unit, machinery for cutting and assembling bamboo frames, LED and electronic components, initial inventory of raw materials, packaging, and working capital for the first 6 months.

Watch-outs

Idea-specific discussion points — not automatic disqualification

  • Market Saturation

    High competition from existing mosquito control devices; need unique selling proposition and aggressive pricing.

  • Regulatory Approvals

    Device may require safety certification under Ministry of Environment or Consumer Product Safety Authority; delays can postpone launch.

  • Supply Chain for LED Modules

    LED components are subject to import duties and lead times; secure multiple suppliers to avoid stockouts.

  • Pricing Pressure

    Cost‑sensitive customers may drive prices down, impacting margins; maintain cost discipline.
