Jalpaiguri district has substantial Dooars tea cultivation plus rich tribal heritage (Rajbongshi, Bodo, Mech communities). A combined operator running a Dooars-origin tea brand plus a tribal-tourism operator (homestay aggregator, cultural experiences, photography expeditions) captures both heritage streams.
Capex of 15-35 lakh covers tea retail/online infrastructure, tourism vehicle, homestay onboarding, and 6 months of working capital. Tea Board plus WB Tourism's tribal-tourism subsidy jointly fund up to 50% capex. Hard parts: tea supply, ethical-tribal-tourism standards, and managing two operating models. Start with tea brand (steady year-round); tribal tourism in year 2.
