Key Ingredients (per 100 liters batch):

1. Acid Slurry (LABSA 90%) – 8–10 kg


2. Caustic Soda Flakes – 1–2 kg (neutralizer)


3. Soda Ash (sodium carbonate) – 2–3 kg


4. Sodium Silicate – 1–2 kg (for thickening)


5. Salt (NaCl) – 1 kg (stability)


6. Color + Perfume – few ml


7. Water – Main solvent



๐Ÿ‘‰ Cost per liter of dishwash liquid = ₹20–25.
๐Ÿ‘‰ Market Selling Price per liter = ₹60–100 (depending on branding & packaging).

๐Ÿ“Š Step 4: Cost & Profit Calculation

Machine Investment: ₹35,000 (one-time).

Raw Material (50 kg = ₹2,500 for ~200 liters output).

Packaging (bottles @ ₹10 each): ₹2,000 for 200 bottles.

Total Cost for 200 liters batch (~200 bottles of 1 liter): ~₹4,500.


Selling Price:

Wholesale @ ₹50/bottle → Revenue = ₹10,000.

Retail @ ₹70/bottle → Revenue = ₹14,000.


๐Ÿ‘‰ Profit per 200L batch = ₹5,000–₹9,000.
๐Ÿ‘‰ If you sell 1,000 liters/month → Profit ₹25k–₹40k.
๐Ÿ‘‰ To reach ₹3 Lakhs, you need to scale up monthly production (10,000 liters/year).
