New Venture Development Ideas - 2022-23
Pots and Lots
Pots N Lots is an online mobile based platform- a website, an application. Pots N Lots basically bridges the gap between the needy rural potters, pot sellers who are in search of getting a good revenue for their products and those gardeners and passionate people who are in search of minimalistic, aesthetic, unique yet a budget friendly pots and other artifacts that are quite expensive in the super markets. Moreover, these potters live far away from the city and people don’t get time easily to go and buy from these potters. The USP of our venture lies in the transportation and customisation- we provide artistic effects, planting a plant as per the customer's demand- be it living or an imitation.

Wheel-E
Rental Bike The idea is about making potential customers (mostly hostellers) to the showroom's second-hand bike rental service. We will be renting bikes from showrooms that charge either per hour or per km / hr, depending on which is higher. The commission from the showroom on each rented bike will be our source of income. The customer can operate the bike themselves no drivers will be provided.
GRAND ZERO
We have an online merchandise store where we are actually doing dropshipping. Here we are creating our design for the T-Shirt and marketing it. We have made a website on Shopify (https://grand0.myshopify.com/) and working on it and also made an Instagram handle where customers can see the designs and if they want to buy that T-Shirt they can come onto that website select that design and pay and the product will be delivered to them. We are working on the part of reverse logistics.
PolyPlastex
On 12th of January, 2023 Thursday, out of several ideas the team has come to a final idea of setting up of a Reprocessing and Recycling unit of Plastic items into reprocessed plastic granules.
This work is basically based on creating best out of wastes. The raw material for this venture will be the plastic scraps, or the existing plastic based industries where the virgin granules (say HDPE- High Density Polyethylene and LDPE- Low Density Polyethylene) are used once got from the refinery to make a certain product. But the Reprocess Machine will be used to make reprocessed granules again so that it gets involved in the sustainability of the same particular product without issuing the new sets of virgin granules. This particular process is somehow resulting in reduction of usage of plastic.
The USP of the product will be, the demand of the used granules for the products in the existing industries as it will comparatively be cheaper than the refined virgin granules which somehow reduces their costs and results in more demand of our product.
For this idea eventually, we will be beginning with work of creating a database of all the suppliers who deals with the type of granules we want and simultaneously we will be surfing and making a database of our consumers that is the TAM (Total Addressable Market). Whatever knowledge we get with our supervisor we will imply as much as we can.

PRAKRITIK UPHAAR
Sustainable and eco-friendly gifting is a growing trend that emphasizes the importance of giving gifts that are not only thoughtful and meaningful but also sustainable and environmentally friendly. This concept recognizes the impact that modern-day gift-giving practices can have on the environment, including the excessive use of resources, the creation of waste, and the contribution to climate change. Traditionally, Indian gifts have been something that can be used and reused time and again, but with modernization came the modern gifts, which had very high levels of plastic and other non-biodegradable elements in them. We would like to revive the traditional Indian gifting culture. The art, the culture, and the heritage of India duly deserve the limelight, the appreciation, and the acknowledgement of its people, which we would try to achieve with the help of local, small-scale artists, which in turn would help them to uplift their living standards.

Additionally, some people have health concerns related to lactose intolerance, allergies, or the presence of hormones and antibiotics in dairy milk.
