Business Model
B2B service provider offering end-to-end beneficiary verification, KYC updates, duplicate detection, biometric validation, field audits, and MIS reporting to state welfare departments. Revenue via per-beneficiary verification fee (₹50–150/year) or fixed annual contract.
Beneficiary verification & de-duplication: ₹2–4 crore/year (40 lakh × ₹50–100)Biometric re-authentication & KYC updates: ₹1–2 crore/yearMIS dashboards & compliance reporting software: ₹30–50 lakh/year licensing
Your 30-Day Action Plan
Contact Assam Social Welfare Department (ASWED) via RTI/tender boards to identify current verification gaps; interview 50–100 village-level Orunodoi coordinators to map pain points.
Design a pilot verification program for 10,000 beneficiaries in 2–3 districts; cost and draft proposal with success metrics (accuracy %, duplicate detection rate).
Partner with local NGOs or Asha/Anganwadi networks for field verification capacity; build simple mobile-based verification app (offline-capable).
Submit formal proposal to ASWED and parallel approach 3–5 other state welfare departments (Chhattisgarh, Jharkhand, Odisha) offering same service model.
