Watch-outs

Idea-specific discussion points — not automatic disqualification

  • Supplier Reliability

    Ensure motor and housing suppliers have consistent quality and timely delivery; negotiate fixed price contracts to avoid cost spikes.

  • Production Capacity

    Initial line may produce ~200 units/month; scale up only after validating demand to avoid excess inventory.

  • Regulatory Compliance

    Obtain necessary certifications (IEC 60034 for motors, safety standards) and maintain GST and MSME registration.

  • Market Saturation

    Competitive landscape in fan market is high; differentiate through unique design or eco‑friendly materials.

  • Cash Flow Management

    Maintain buffer working capital for raw material price fluctuations and seasonal sales dips.
