The great festival of Ganesh Utsav has started across the country from 27th August. In these 10 days, Ganpati Bappa is being installed and worshipped with great pomp in every street, every locality, and every temple. During this time, people spend generously on idols, decorations, sweets, and puja materials. This is why this time becomes a golden opportunity for small investment businesses. By adopting some smart ideas, you can earn huge profits ranging from ₹ 50,000 to ₹ 1.5 lakh this season.
Readymade Puja Kit and Decoration Material Business
Puja kits are in high demand during Ganeshotsav. If you prepare a kit with incense sticks, camphor, flowers, coconut, and decoration items, then at a cost of ₹ 300, you can easily sell it for ₹ 600-₹ 800. Even by selling just 200-250 kits, you can earn a great profit of ₹ 1 lakh to ₹ 1.5 lakh. Making the packaging of the kit attractive and festive will further increase sales.
Bumper profits in Modaks and Laddus
Modak and Laddus have great importance in Ganpati Puja. A profit of ₹150-₹200 can be earned on every kg of sweets. It is possible to earn ₹70,000 to ₹1 lakh by selling 400-500 kg of sweets in 10 days. If you make healthy or sugar-free modaks, you will be able to easily attract fitness enthusiasts as well.
Insta-friendly decoration and lighting services
Nowadays, people want their Ganpati pandal or home decoration to stand out on social media. If you offer theme-based decorations, flower arrangements, and LED lighting services, you can charge ₹5,000-₹20,000 for each project. A revenue of ₹2-₹3 lakh and a profit of around ₹1 lakh is possible from just 20 projects. You can increase bookings by posting pictures of your past work on Instagram reels and Facebook.
New trend of digital puja and online darshan
People who live outside now prefer serving live puja, online aartis, and e-prasad. If you tie up with local pandals and sell 300-400 passes and keep each pass for ₹300-₹500, then a profit of ₹80,000 to ₹1.5 lakh can be earned. To do this on a larger scale, creating a simple website will also be beneficial.
Chaat Thela/Counter
If you are an expert in delicious food, then this is a great opportunity to earn during Ganeshotsav. You can sell things like chaat or pav-bhaji for ₹100-₹150 per plate. By selling 100 to 200 plates daily, you can easily earn thousands of rupees every day, which will give huge profits throughout the season.
