Subsidized asbestos replacements, cement and refractory areas are not primarily an industrial material. In an entrepreneurial and investor eye, it is an innovation center, a regulatory shift  and a significant infrastructure on their side.

Reasons to initiate industry in this sector  

Here are some fundamental business drivers that this sector offers.  

Direct cash: 
In the future, the industry is forecasted to perform very strongly because of the surplus. It is due to the high asset turnover, comprehensive and steady demand for the core industries, and the low import depreciation. The wait period is average for most plants in the industry,  and the equipment is for a long period 4-6 years with well-managed returns IRR 18-25%.

Home Infrastructure: 
This is the demand which is the rapid and unplanned growth with an urban increase in population, what the government builds, infrastructure, roads and public building. It indirectly supplies cement and refractory and is in heavy demand.

The need for Innovation: 
Moreover, innovation is highly valued in ecological, and mixed cement, green upcyclers of refractory waste, and recycling of raw materials, particularly of fly ash. 

Availability of raw materials and other advantages  

There are numerous benefits specific to the industry and, more broadly, to India and other comparable developing economies:

Supplier Chain: 
The suppliers have settled in such areas as Tamil Nadu and Uttarakhand, which contain the raw materials that greatly reduce material and input costs for steel plants, power plants  and industrial clusters.

Processing Capacity:
Many units already exist for smelting, grinding, and crushing, and supporting services are also provided : transport, quality assurance, and packing, so the barrier for starting new projects is significantly lower.

Raw material quality challenges:
Some refractory raw materials are imported, especially high-purity alumina, magnets, etc. There are some reserves in India, reservations because the quality is never enough (particle size, cleanliness, dirt).

What made you choose this particular industry

So, while the reasons are not exigent, they do provide a moderate level of attraction to the field for several entrepreneurs.

Specialized products have better margins:
First, basic cement or generic abrasives are products that have low margins, while Special refractor or non asbestos are safe, asbestos being unsafe, and Super Abrasives have the potential of generating increased margins. 

Ability to innovate:
Second, the innovative areas concern Ecofriendly low binder materials, ash base cement, more durable and able to sustain higher temperatures, and the elimination of asbestos with Safer alternatives. Such materials are the source of cost advantage.

Ability to scale and export:
Rising demand in the country, and neighboring countries like refractory, cement, and special abrasives are most frequently imported items. Start-ups can easily penetrate as competitors with demand-certified qualities and a continuous export market.

Government Assistance  

In India, the government also offers assistance to MSMEs in the form of:

• The industrial parks:- it includes the land in the park and other essential utilities are provided in this. The special economic zone units receive quick approvals and lower operating costs. 
• Customs duty excise scrips & others:- These are issued to promote and motivate indigenous sourcing. It holds significant importance for bulb industries and other production industries that require specialization. 

• Recent Innovative Motive Programmes: 
  • India earmarked 1500 crores for the Motivational System to support mass recycling of critical minerals. It focuses on the secondary level but also helps in upstream development of the availability of raw materials.
  • To entice production on the green field, state policies generally involve capital grants, interest subsidies, subsidized energy tariffs, and eased administrative barriers.

The people who want to capitalize and make vital establishments of operations or large scale enterprises, with the optimistic utilization of industrial capacities hold tight to the point that time is the most authorized to do so. The expected deposits of asbestos and asbestos, cement and refractory materials; deposits, and current supply markup, as policy changes occur, raises the demand and also stable raw material availability, markup in supply, and due to the government machinery and policies together bring about the set of people and system that will drive and obvious new enter people to the industry and its expansion.
