Service Overview
Our Retrofit + Automation Specialization service upgrades existing tissue culture laboratories into high-efficiency, low-contamination, digitally monitored production facilities.
If your current lab is facing contamination issues, inconsistent growth rates, high labor dependency, or energy inefficiency — this solution transforms your conventional setup into a modern, semi-automated or fully automated plant production system.
Ideal for commercial micropropagation units aiming to scale capacity, improve quality consistency, and reduce operational losses.

✔ Reduced dependence on manual supervision
🏛 Government Subsidy-Aligned Proposal Framework (India)
This model aligns with support schemes under:
National Horticulture Board (NHB)
Mission for Integrated Development of Horticulture (MIDH)
National Horticulture Mission (NHM)
Agricultural and Processed Food Products Export Development Authority (APEDA)
State Agriculture / Horticulture Departments
🔹 Eligible Components Under Subsidy
✔ Greenhouse / Protected structure upgrade
✔ Tissue culture lab modernization
✔ HVAC & environmental control systems
✔ Automation & monitoring systems
✔ Power backup & infrastructure
✔ Cold chain / hardening units
🔹 Typical Subsidy Pattern (Indicative)
| Category | Subsidy % |
|---|---|
| General Category | 35–40% |
| Women / SC / ST / NE States | 50–60% |
| FPO / Cluster Projects | Up to 50% |
🔹 Example Subsidy-Adjusted ROI
If Project Cost = ₹24 Lakhs
Eligible Subsidy @40% = ₹9.6 Lakhs
Net Investment = ₹14.4 Lakhs
If Monthly Additional Benefit = ₹3 Lakhs
Payback Period = ~5 Months
This significantly accelerates ROI.
