Production involves component sourcing, PCB assembly, sensor integration, and thermal calibration. Requires trained technicians and basic QC checks before dispatch.

Sample/template project cost: ₹23,75,000. Covers assembly line setup, calibration equipment, raw materials (IR sensors, displays, casings), quality control tools, and initial working capital.

What subsidy might apply under PMEGP?

Indicative PMEGP-style margin money rates on this site run up to 35% of project cost, depending on beneficiary category and rural vs urban area. This is not a guarantee of subsidy, sanction, or bank finance — verify current guidelines before applying.

Watch-outs

Idea-specific discussion points — not automatic disqualification

  • Regulatory Clearance

    Ensure device complies with Indian Medical Device Rules and BIS standards; registration may be required before commercial sale.

  • Raw Material Sourcing

    IR sensors and electronic components are import-dependent; plan for currency fluctuations and supply chain delays.

  • After-Sales Service

    Calibration drift and repair support must be factored into operations; service network affects customer retention.

  • Market Saturation

    Post-pandemic demand has cooled; focus on replacement cycles and niche segments like airports or manufacturing.
