Tarn Taran has the historic Gurdwara Tarn Taran Sahib (one of Punjab's largest sarovars/water-pools at a Sikh shrine) drawing substantial annual pilgrim flow plus dense rice cultivation. A combined operator running heritage-tourism services (pilgrim accommodation, history tours, Punjabi-cuisine experiences) plus a small modern rice mill captures both economies.
Capex of 18-40 lakh covers tourism arrangements, rice-mill equipment (parboiling, dryer, polishing, sortex), packaging, and 6 months of working capital. Punjab Tourism's heritage-tourism scheme plus NABARD-AIF (rice mill component) jointly fund up to 50% capex. Hard parts: managing two operating models, paddy supply contracts, and pilgrim-tourism seasonality. Start with rice mill (recurring B2B revenue); tourism in year 2.
