How this calculator works
This page starts from how much batter you want to sell in a day. You set the daily target in kilograms, adjust the rice and urad dal ratio, and then the calculator estimates how many kilograms of each ingredient you need.
Disclaimer
This calculator gives an estimate. Actual soaking losses, fermentation changes, wastage, returned stock, spoilage, and local selling price can change your real business profit.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why are idli and dosa both on one page?
Because the business math is the same. The defaults are different, and you can change ratio, yield, and price any time.
How much can I earn per month?
That depends on ingredient price, daily operating cost, selling price, and how much batter you want to sell each day. This tool estimates monthly profit after shop and admin costs.
Why is yield multiplier so important?
Because it decides how much batter you get from the dry mix. Even a small change in yield can noticeably change your cost per kg and cost per pack.
What is a good selling price?
A good price covers rice, urad dal, labour, water, current, packaging, and overhead while still fitting your local market.
