Seedhe sawaal, seedhe jawab

₹12-15 lakh minimal setup (rent + second-hand machinery + 3-month raw material + working capital). Full setup ₹28-40 lakh with new CNC machines. Finance available: MUDRA loan ₹50K (instant), PMEGP subsidy 35% on capital after Udyam registration.
Experience matters. If zero background: hire 1 experienced operator (₹15K/month) first 6 months, pair with your learning. If auto/mech background: 30 days on-floor training with existing unit owner possible (via paid internship). Most successful founders here started with 3-5 year operator experience.
PMEGP: 35% subsidy up to ₹25L, MUDRA: ₹50K instant collateral-free, Haryana state: 25% machinery subsidy. Udyam registration: ₹0, gives access to all schemes. Total potential support: ₹30-35L on ₹50L investment.
Phone 5-6 automotive distributors in Rohtak/Jind (Yellow Pages, local industry association list ₹0 cost). Post on IndiaMART/TradeKey free. Email 10 maintenance departments of small factories using 'local fastener supplier' pitch. First order expected within 2-3 weeks, ₹8-15K value.
Haan. ISO 9001 certification (₹1.5-2L), IEC code (₹5K), Udyam + GST registration. Export destinations: Germany, UAE, USA accept Indian fasteners at 40-50% FOB margin. First shipment size: 500-1000 kg, ₹4-6L revenue per shipment to Europe. Process: 8-10 weeks from buyer inquiry to first shipment.
Honest answer: if no sales after 6 months, pivot to job work (contract machining for other makers — 8-12% margin, lower risk). Used CNC machinery recovers 40-50% resale value. Rental units avoid sunk costs. Exit timeline: 2-3 months to liquidate, minimal loss if you lease vs own. Success rate in cluster: 65-70% break even within 14 months, so risk is real but not catastrophic.
