How we work

From investment to industrial success — in six stages.

Most industrial projects are handed between a feasibility consultant, a liaison agent, a subsidy consultant, an EPC contractor and an automation vendor. Every handover is a gap, and the promoter carries the risk in all of them. We hold the whole line.

  1. 01

    Evaluate

    Is this project worth doing?

    Feasibility, due diligence, risk assessment and deal structuring — before capital is committed and while changing course is still cheap.

  2. 02

    Plan

    What exactly are we building, and where?

    Detailed project report, technology and process selection, site identification and plant layout. The document set that lenders, boards and authorities actually act on.

  3. 03

    Approve

    What clearances and incentives apply?

    Licences and statutory clearances secured in the right sequence — alongside the central and state incentives the project qualifies for, claimed before the eligibility window closes.

  4. 04

    Build

    Who carries execution risk?

    Turnkey erection, installation, testing and commissioning under project management control, with cost and schedule tracked against the sanctioned plan.

  5. 05You are here

    Operate

    How do we run it well?

    Automation, ERP and MES, a developed vendor ecosystem, staffing and the environmental and governance reporting that customers and lenders now demand.

  6. 06

    Scale

    Where does the next phase of growth come from?

    Capacity expansion, diversification, joint ventures, export markets and government supply channels — planned as deliberately as the original project.

FAQ

Common questions

Can you help us localise imported inputs?
Yes. This typically involves identifying domestic candidates, assessing the gap between their current capability and your requirement, and running a development programme to close it. Landed cost comparison should include duty, freight, inventory carrying cost and the working capital tied up in long import lead times.
How long to build a vendor base for a new plant?
Generally four to six months for a typical manufacturing unit, running in parallel with construction. Critical and long-lead categories should be started first, and categories requiring sample approval or process qualification take longest.
How early should we start recruiting for a new plant?
Key technical and supervisory roles four to six months before commissioning; operators two to three months before, so training completes before equipment goes live. Specialised roles in tight labour markets can take considerably longer and should be started first.
Who holds statutory liability for contract labour?
The principal employer retains significant liability under contract labour and social security legislation regardless of the contractual arrangement. This is precisely why compliance record quality matters, and why deficiencies are worth finding before an inspection does.
What does a first-time exporter need before shipping?
At minimum an Importer Exporter Code, registration with the relevant export promotion council, a bank arrangement for export transactions, product compliance for the target market, and accurate costing by incoterm. Registrations typically take three to five weeks.
Which export incentives are available?
The commonly applicable ones include EPCG for duty-free capital goods import against an export obligation, advance authorisation for duty-free input import, RoDTEP for remission of embedded duties and taxes, and duty drawback. Which apply depends on your product, inputs and capital goods position, and several can be combined.
