Mineral Based

Plaster of Paris Toys & Small Status

₹3.5 L(₹3,50,000) · ₹2–5LUp to 35% subsidy
Compact unit · Lean staffing

The pitch

"Plaster of Paris Toys & Small Status" turns a specific local gap in mineral based into a small, run-it-yourself unit — the kind PMEGP sample data shows plenty of applicants have already costed out.

Buyers are local: trade counters, nearby institutions, or end consumers within a practical delivery radius — map who actually buys before sizing capacity. Day-to-day work centres on procurement, production or service delivery, quality, and sales for “Plaster of Paris Toys & Small Status”. Higher sample costs usually mean more equipment coordination and working-capital discipline.

₹3,50,000 sets this up, per the official sample (₹2–5L, Mineral Based). Treat it as a starting benchmark for capacity and cost — your bank file needs your own numbers, not the template's.

Watch-outs

Idea-specific discussion points — not automatic disqualification

  • Local demand proof

    Before locking ₹3,50,000 of sample-scale investment, map who will buy and at what price in your district—not only state-level averages.

  • Customise the sample DPR

    Banks expect your costs, capacity, and working capital to match local reality; copy-paste sample schedules weaken the file.

  • Scheme eligibility

    PMEGP is for new units with capital expenditure; land cost is generally excluded. Confirm negative-list and trading/transport caps for your state.
