Bokaro is one of India's primary steel cities (SAIL Bokaro Steel Plant) with extensive ancillary industries plus a tribal hinterland with rich craft traditions (dokra metal-craft, sohrai painting, bamboo work). A combined operator running steel-ancillary contract services (small fabrication, machining, logistics) plus a tribal-craft retail brand captures both economies.
Capex of 15-35 lakh covers fabrication tools, retail fit-out, and 6 months of working capital. MSME-Cluster Development scheme + DCH (handicrafts) jointly fund up to 50% capex. Hard parts: managing two distinct operating models, securing SAIL ancillary contracts (relationship-driven), and tribal-craft authenticity. Start with steel ancillary services (steady recurring revenue); craft retail in year 2.
