Calculating the total investment cost for a stone crusher plant in India involves multiple factors that need to be considered carefully. The total cost primarily depends on the plant’s production capacity, the type of stone crusher you plan to invest in, and various other factors. Here’s a step-by-step guide to estimate the total investment cost:
Start by determining the production capacity needed (in tons per hour or day). Your requirement will determine the size and type of plant, number of machines, and scale of investment.
The biggest component of the investment cost will be the purchase of machinery. Depending on the type of crushers and conveyors required, costs will vary. Common types of stone crushers include:
Mobile Crushers
Check prices with local manufacturers or importers. The approximate costs for purchasing machinery could range from ₹10 lakh to ₹50 lakh for smaller production plants, and up to ₹1 crore or more for large-scale systems.
Include in your estimate the cost for transporting machinery to your site and labor costs for installation. Transportation costs depend on the distance and size of the equipment; installation costs will include labor services and fees for engineers or technicians.
You need a properly built infrastructure to set up the stone crusher plant, including:
Foundation construction: Civil works to build machinery foundations, offices, storage areas, etc.
Land costs vary widely depending on your location in India. Civil works may cost between ₹10 lakh and ₹50 lakh, depending on production capacity and local labor/material costs.
Calculate the cost of power, water supply, and maintenance requirements for operating the crushing plant. These recurring costs should also be factored into long-term investment analysis.
Include salaries for operators, maintenance staff, supervisors, etc.
Stone crushers require government approvals and clearances, including:
Other taxes and legal fees
Costs for permissions may range from ₹2 lakh to ₹5 lakh, depending on state regulations.
Factor in additional costs like:
| Here’s a rough cost breakdown for a 50 tons per hour plant: | Expense Category | Estimated Cost |
|---|---|---|
| Machinery | ₹30 lakh – ₹50 lakh | |
| Transportation/Installation | ₹5 lakh – ₹10 lakh | |
| Civil works/Infrastructure | ₹10 lakh – ₹25 lakh | |
| Utilities (Power, Water, etc.) | ₹2 lakh – ₹5 lakh | |
| Permits and Fees | ₹2 lakh – ₹5 lakh | |
| Labor/Staff Costs | ₹5 lakh – ₹10 lakh per year |
Summing the above categories, the total initial investment for a 50 TPH stone crusher plant in India is likely to range from ₹50 lakh to ₹1 crore. Larger plants with higher capacities can cost multiple crores.
