Plant Platform

Phase-1 Allocation
₹32.24 Cr (NZ$ 8.40 M)

The capital core of Phase-1 — the Geneva-series clonal rootstock production platform: imported mother stock, tissue culture, hardening and bench-grafting capacity sized to deliver the run-rate output committed in the deck.

Basis of Estimate
  • Imported mother stock landed cost (NZ Plant & Food Research / Geneva series).
  • Tissue culture lab sized for 300,000 certified plants/yr — Stage III throughput (1.5 M plants over the 5-year Phase-1 horizon).
  • Working capital covers the 6–9 month nursery cycle before saleable output.

Training

Phase-1 Allocation
₹8.32 Cr (NZ$ 2.17 M)

Phase-1 Allocation
₹7.80 Cr (NZ$ 2.03 M)

The PMU (Programme Management Unit) that runs the SPV — keeps the four pillars in lockstep, manages stakeholder reporting, audit and procurement governance.

Basis of Estimate
  • Lean PMU: ~8 FTEs core team across the 5-year horizon.
  • Independent audit, legal and secretarial budgets carved out separately.
  • Travel & stakeholder convening for tri-nation governance reviews.

Phase-1 Allocation
₹6.24 Cr (NZ$ 1.62 M)

TNO-GENIUS — the farmer-facing decision support system (mobile + web), tied to the lab LIMS and nursery traceability so every certified plant carries a QR-traceable history.

Basis of Estimate
  • User base sized at 100,000 farmers + 1,500 extension workers.
  • Cloud infra costed on a 5-year horizon (managed Postgres + storage + CDN).
