Welcome to Indian Startups's Private Community

Hey guys can you please help me with any business idea that can be doable in Himachal? 

It could be anything like growing organic vegetables, exotic veggies and fruits, or a travel agency, starting with a small hydropower unit, building and selling apartments...


Looking forward to getting some ideas that can help me out in figuring out something productive

What if I have close to 10 lakhs + in cash.
Can I start something in these cities which can at least generate a monthly income of 40/50k for a sustainable long term.
If not what’s the capital needed?
Please note I don’t have any business prior expertise
Uncertainty in tech sector has left me stressed.
I need a minimum of 45-50k to sustain.

I need some ideas.
Lets discuss.

Some sustainable income streams in tier 2/3 cities in India?

Software Engineer

Hey everyone,

I’m a CS major with over 5 years of experience in the ML field, and I’ve been thinking a lot about the future. As much as I love tech, I can sense a lot of unpredictability in the field. So, I’ve been contemplating starting a “boring” but stable side business in the Gurgaon area.

Here are a few ideas I’ve been brainstorming:

1. Solar Industry: Exploring the entire supply chain for solar products. Setting up something small and focusing on areas where India is highly dependent on imports from China.


2. E-commerce Packaging: Offering innovative and precise packaging solutions for the booming quick commerce industry. I think there’s a lot of potential here!


3. Franchise Ventures: Bringing in successful Indian companies like Atomberg, ather and setting up franchises in this area.


4. Hydroponics Farming: Renting land and starting hydroponic farming for premium, fresh produce. Demand for this seems to be growing fast!


5. Import-Export: Diving into import-export opportunities—maybe there’s something untapped here?

6: Plant based alternative as a solution (icecream,  daily usage items ) : playing on conscious capitalism 



These ideas seem to have a mix of stability and potential, but I’m sure there are many angles I’m missing. I’d love to hear your thoughts!

Are any of these ideas worth pursuing?

Do you see gaps in these sectors that could be filled?

Any other “boring” yet high-potential sectors you’d recommend?


I’m hoping this thread will help not just me but others who are also considering venturing into business. Let’s brainstorm together and share ideas that can lead to long-term success.

Looking forward :p

Starting a Manufacturing Business—Need Ideas & Suggestions!

Attaching a recent sunset pic from my gallery.

Thanks for loving Part 1 of my RLE.
https://share.gvine.app/1phkz5E232ikFMwH8

I am loving this phase of my life. Wlb is good.

Eating organic food, drinking clean water 💦 and breathing clean air 🫁.

More time for family and society.
Getting good sleep with deep sleep more than 2h consistently. No regional holiganism. Life ain't kinda hullabaloo which used to be case in metro.

Saving+investing 100% of my salary (thanks to my investments in last 7-8y)

I want to sustain this and live like this for rest of my life.

I am in late 20s and sitting on total 93L savings.

It will cross 8d soon but am confused on how to go through sustainability. 

Please help me navigate.

1. I don't want to do job. 
Startup or Meaningful work is my calling. In Covid i worked for multiple startups and helped them in many ways. MVP to PMF, am good at marketing, sales, HR and tech. Planning to join a remote startup or start my own. But it should be meaningful startup not just a bigger fool game.

2. I Can do agriculture side by side as I have around 15acres of land. It can give output = Median package of tier 1 mba. Have ideas like growing stevia, alovera and other useful stuff instead of wheat n rice like my old generation. Then it will be huge but again have to convince father. Startups like dehaat are helping in this as well.

3. Get a good franchise in nearby city like sleepwell, Pizza Hut, kfc or tamo and get regular returns.

4. Put all money in FD and get 50k/m return and live a happy life. (50k is more than enough for family of 5 where I live currently)

5. I love reading, blogging, debating, quizzing on economics, geopolitics, spirituality, semiconductor, politics and tech. Can build an online business around this on YouTube and internet.


Please guide me how to reach to correct idea and navigate properly with minimal risk.

Thanks in advance and only serious people reply.

Business ideas 💡

Analyst

I am ready to put more than 70 hours to start and run my own business. Looking for some ideas with certain criteria I have in my mind 

1. Scalability - Biz should be scalable enough to reach 100 cr annual turnover, fine if takes mid to long term
2. Margin - should have healthy margin, not looking for VC money to run it
3. Location - setup and operation can be done from anywhere
4. Non-tech - I am not a tech person, so the Biz should be done without hightech IT infra as I want to run the show on my own.

Sourcing ideas for myself, because I want to start something my own
And for other non-tech people, who are also in the same boat as I am.

Let’s see if we get some good ideas here!

- Let’s create a safe space
- Mention *minimal* information such as you age, gender, etc to add context about you
- Trolls be empathetic and think before you comment to someone.

What are you innermost thoughts and emotions you don’t share with family and friends as they wouldn’t understand?

I wanted to start doing some business or take any franchise business ! Not passionate about any particular business but seriously looking to diversify my source of income from regular 9-5 jobs ! Since new looking for honest and like minded people to connect and partner with them to make a move! Any advice that can help is immensely appreciated

Looking for like minded people

Offline businesses or hybrid businesses that can be profitable. Steel/cement/building material dealership (Tata, Astral etc), kitchen equipments, mutual fund and insurance distribution or franchise of a big brand. Also mention approx capital required and monthly earning potential. Idea can be from what you explored or your family’s business too..

Please stick to this format:

Business idea - Astral pipes dealership 
Geography - City or town of operation only
Competitive intensity - High
Capital required - 1 crore
Earning potential - 2-3% per month (2-3 lakhs) 
Points - You will be dealing with the main distributor and not astral directly, you will have to network well with plumbers, architects, small builders etc.
