HOW TO START A SMALL SCALE INDUSTRY
The steps involved in starting a small-scale industry are:STEP ONE- MARKET SURVEY o Conduct Market Survey and Study the products as regards their demand in the market. o Check whether it is a seasonal product or it has demand through the year. o Study similar products available in the market that can be probable competitors. Analyze them as regards their utility, quality and cost. o Find whether the product can be exported. o Explore the possibility whether some product can be manufactured in collaboration with a foreign country. This provides readymade technical know how and save a lot of time and money otherwise wasted in developing a suitable method of manufacture. STEP TWO- MANUFACTURING Decide the product that you are going to manufacture, on the basis of:o Market Survey o Financial implication involved o Technical knowhow available o Experience in the line, etc.
STEP THREE- FORM OF OWNERSHIP Form of ownership (Choosing either of the form of ownership) Proprietary concern Partnership Limited company Cooperative society

STEP FOUR - INFRASTRUCTURE o Selecting a proper site for locating the unit. o Taking a building for factory on hire or construct a own factory building. o Location of the enterprise should be easily accessible to all stake holders like suppliers, distributors (Early availability of transport facility at cheaper rates.)etc o Being conversant with the rules and other information available from Ministry of Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises, New Delhi.
STEP FIVE - FINANCE
Preparing a scheme in detail to manufacture the selected product such a scheme should include the requirement of and the approximate cost of:-
1. Land and building 2. Machinery, tools and other equipment 3. Direct labour 4. Indirect labour 5. Direct material cost 6. Indirect material cost 7. Selling and distribution overheads 8. Working Capital for a unit time 9. Depreciation 10. Total production cost per unit time 11. Percentage of profit. STEP SIX HUMAN RESOURCES Check the availability of the skilled labour at reasonable rate
STEP SEVEN Check the concessions that Government has to offer Concessions that Government offer like establishment of small scale industrial estates, subsidies, etc

STEP EIGHT Registration Process and approval Registration Process The Registration of units under SSI sector enables the entrepreneurs to take up all preliminary steps required to set up the unit, such as, to apply for loans, sheds/plots in Industrial Estates, power/water connection, to purchase/import plant and machinery, raw material, machinery on hire purchase basis, etc. It is done in two stages: a. Provisional Registration, and b. Permanent Registration.
Provisional Registration
Provisional Registration Certificate is issued to a SSI unit, which is not in production and is not banned either by Government of India or Government of respective state Government, within a period of 24 hours, on application made in the prescribed format. This enables the unit to take up all preliminary steps to set up the units, such as to apply for loans, sheds/plots in Industrial Estate, power connection, to purchase/import plant and machinery, raw material, machinery on hire purchase basis, etc. within the validity period of the Provisional Registration Certificate. The Director of Industries(DIC), Trade and Commerce, as well as, the General Manager (DIC) reserves the right to seek copies of Project Report and other relevant information required to ensure the types of raw materials proposed to be used in the manufacturing process, type of machinery involved and other aspects of the unit. The Provisional Registration Certificate (PRC) is valid for a period of five years from the date of issue and gets lapsed automatically on completion of five years or from the date the unit goes into commercial production, whichever is earlier.
Permanent Registration
The Provisional Registration is converted into Permanent Registration on confirming that the unit has taken all the effective steps, including installation of machinery and equipments, obtaining power/water connection, etc. and after the Registering Authority is satisfied that the unit has gone into commercial production and has produced all the necessary NOCs/Documents/clearances from the concerned Authorities and on submission of the requisite documents/information as per the check list of Ministry of MSME The application for issue of Permanent SSI Registration Certificate has to be submitted by the entrepreneur complete in all respects in the prescribed format costing Rs.20/-, to the Directorate of Industries, Trade and Commerce.

Application received at the facilitation counter is verified thoroughly by the Industries Inspector/Extension Officer (Industries) and if any deficiency is observed, the entrepreneur is directed to furnish the remaining documents /information. On receipt of such documents, the Industries Inspector/Extension Officer (Industries) inspects the unit for physical verification of the machinery, equipments and other assets of the factory/unit, verification of the documents, etc and submits his Inspection Report within a period of 15 days, along with all the documents to the General Manager (DIC), Directorate of Industries, Trade and Commerce, ( of the respective State) The Industries Inspectors report and other documents are then further scrutinized by the Registration Section of the Directorate and if found in order the case of Permanent Registration is approved by the General Manager (DIC) APPROVALS REQUIRED FOR STARTING A SSI DEPENDING ON WHAT ENTREPRENEUR WANT TO MANUFACTURING (a) NOC on pollution angle from the Department of Science, Technology and Environment (b) Approval of Factory Building and Machinery lay out from the Inspectorate of Factories; (c) Site clearance from Town and Country Planning Department; (d) Permission for land use conversion and ground water clearance from Agricultural Department; (e) Power feasibility Certificate from Electricity Department; (f) Building Plan approval from Town Planning Authority; (g) Clearance from Health Department; (h) Clearance from Fire Service Department; (i) Clearance from Revenue Department; (j) Licence from Food and Drugs Administration; (k) Licence from Civil Supplies Department.
Most of the state governments have created Single Window clearance for all approvals.

Feasibility Analysis
For many entrepreneurs, the easiest part of launching a business is coming up with an idea for a new business concept or approach. Business success, however, requires much more than just a great new idea. Once entrepreneurs develop an idea for a business, the next step is to subject it to a feasibility analysis to determine whether they can transform the idea into a viable business. A feasibility analysis is the process of determining whether an entrepreneurs idea is a viable foundation for creating a successful business. Its purpose is to determine whether a business idea is worth pursuing. If the idea passes the feasibility analysis, the entrepreneurs next step is to build a solid business plan for capitalizing on the idea. If the idea fails to pass muster, the entrepreneur drops it and moves on to the next opportunity. He or she has not wasted valuable time, money, energy, and other resources creating a full-blown business plan, or worse, launching a business that is destined to fail because it is based on a flawed concept. A feasibility study is not the same as a business plan; both play important, but separate, roles in the start-up process. A feasibility study answers the question, Should we proceed with this business idea? Its role is to serve as a filter, screening out ideas that lack the potential for building a successful business, before an entrepreneur commits the necessary resources to building a business plan. A feasibility study primarily is an investigative tool. It is designed to give an entrepreneur a picture of the market, sales, and profit potential of a particular business

idea A business plan, on the other hand, is a planning tool for transforming an idea into reality. It builds on the foundation of the feasibility study but provides a more comprehensive analysis than a feasibility study. It functions primarily as a planning tool, taking an idea that has passed the feasibility analysis and describing how to turn it into a successful business. Its primary goals are to guide entrepreneurs as they launch and operate their businesses and to help them acquire the necessary financing to launch. Feasibility studies are particularly useful when entrepreneurs have generated multiple ideas for business concepts and must winnow their options down to the best choice. They enable entrepreneurs quickly to explore the practicality of each of several potential paths for transforming an idea into a successful business venture. Sometimes the result of a feasibility study is the realization that an idea simply wont produce a viable business, no matter how it is organized. In other cases, a study shows an entrepreneur that the business idea is a sound one but must be organized in a different fashion to be profitable.
Conducting a Feasibility Analysis

A feasibility study is an important step in business development. The success of a feasibility study is based on the careful identification and assessment of all of the important issues for business success. Product/Service Feasibility Financial Feasibility Technical Feasibility Organizational/Managerial Feasibility Legal Feasibility

Product/Service Feasibility
A market, whether a place or not, is the arena for interaction among buyers and sellers. From sellers point of view, market analysis is primarily concerned with the aggregate demand of the proposed product/service in future and the market share expected to be captured. Success of the proposed project clearly hinges on the continuing support of the customers. However, it is very difficult to identify the market for ones product/service. After all, the whole universe cannot be your market. Entrepreneur has to carefully segment the market according to some criteria such as geographic scope, demographic and psychological profile of the potential customers etc. It is a study of knowing who all customers, for this entrepreneur require information on Industry description. Describe the size and scope of the industry, market and/or market segment(s). Estimate the future direction of the industry, market and/or market segment(s). Describe the nature of the industry, market and/or market segment(s) (stable or going through rapid change and restructuring). Identify the life-cycle of the industry, market and/or market segment(s) (emerging, mature) Industry competitiveness. Investigate industry concentration Analyze major competitors. Explore barriers/ease of entry of competitors into the market or industry. Determine concentration and competitiveness of input suppliers and product/service buyers. Identify price competitiveness of product/service.
Market potential. Will the product be sold into a commodity or differentiated product/service market? Identify the demand and usage trends of the market or market segment in which the proposed product or service will participate. Examine the potential for emerging, niche or segmented market opportunities. Explore the opportunity and potential for a "branded product". Assess estimated market usage and potential share of the market or market segment
Sales projection. Estimate sales or usage. Identify and assess the accuracy of the underlying assumptions in the sales projection. Project sales under various assumptions (ie. selling prices, services provided). Access to market outlets. Identify the potential buyers of the product/service and the associated marketing costs. Investigate the product/service distribution system and the costs involved.

Financial Feasibility
The objective of financial analysis is to ascertain whether the proposed project will be financially viable in the sense of being able to meet the burden of servicing debt and whether the proposed project will satisfy the return expectations of those who provide the capital. Estimate the total capital requirements. Assess the "seed capital" needs of the business project and how these needs will be met. Estimate capital requirements for facilities, equipment and inventories. Determine replacement capital requirements and timing for facilities and equipment. Estimate other capital needs Estimate start-up capital needs until revenues are realized at full capacity. Estimate contingency capital needs (construction delays, technology malfunction, market access delays, etc. Estimate other capital needs.
Estimate equity and credit needs. Identify alternative equity sources and capital availability -- producers, local investors, angel investors, venture capitalists, etc. Identify and assess alternative credit sources -- banks, government (ie. direct loans or loan guarantees), grants, local and state economic development incentives. Assess expected financing needs and alternative sources -- interest rates, terms, conditions, etc. Establish debt-to-equity levels. Budget expected costs and returns of various alternatives. Estimate expected costs and revenue. Estimate the profit margin and expected net profit. Estimate the sales or usage needed to break-even.
Technical Feasibility
Technical Feasibility is to assess the extent to which the system can be successfully designed, developed and installed. The issues involved in the assessment of technical analysis of the proposed project may be classified into those pertaining to inputs, throughputs and outputs. Input Analysis: Input analysis is mainly concerned with the identification, quantification and evaluation of project inputs, that is, machinery and materials. Entrepreneur has to ensure that the right kind and quality of inputs would be available at the right time and cost throughout
Page 12
the life of the project. Entrepreneur has to enter into long-term contracts with the potential suppliers. The activities involved in developing and retaining supply sources are referred to as supply chain management. Throughput Analysis: It refers to the production/operations that you would perform on the inputs to add value. Usually,the inputs received would undergo a process of transformation in several stages of manufacture. Where to locate the facility, what would be the sequence, what would be the layout, what would be the quality control measures, etc Output Analysis: this involves product specification in terms of physical features- colors, weight, length, breadth, height; functional features; chemical material properties; as well as standards to be complied with such as BIS, ISI, and ISO etc. Other issues of Technical Feasibility Suitability of production technology. Investigate and compare technology providers. Determine reliability and competitiveness of technology (proven or unproven, stateof-the-art). Identify limitations or constraints of technology Availability and suitability of site. Access to markets. Access to raw materials. Access to transportation. Access to a qualified labor pool. Access to production inputs (electricity, water, etc.).
Availability and suitability of site. Investigate emissions potential. Analyze environmental impact. Identify regulatory requirements. Explore economic development incentives. Explore community receptiveness to having the business located there.
Organizational/Managerial Feasibility
Managerial Feasibility is to assess the human resources needed in the business and determine if business has sufficient skills/resources to bring product/service to market successfully. Identify availability of skilled and experienced business managers.
Page 13
Identify availability of consultants and service providers with the skills needed to realize the project, including legal, accounting, industry experts, etc. Outline the governance, lines of authority and decision making structure. Business founders. What key individuals will lead the project? Is there a reward system for the founders? Is it based on business performance? Have the founders organized other successful businesses?
Legal Feasibility
Legal Feasibility is to assess the legal formalities and constraints of the business. These include, choice of the form of business organisation, registration and clearances and approvals from the diverse authorities. ( this part is given in how to start a SSI )
