business is to choose a good location for your business. Small towns, metros, suburbs, villages anything works for this business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The ideal locations for the photocopy business are near colleges (schools do not work), offices\/corporate areas, hospitals, govt. institutions, banks, court compounds, near coaching\/tuition classes etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You need a shop with a minimum of 150 square feet of space. If you want to start with a large scale then you may require more space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For this business, a shop rental of 10,000 to 15,000 rupees can be considered safe. It depends on the location and the total space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Set_up_your_xerox_shop\"><\/span>Set up your xerox shop<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Keep an eye on your competitor&#8217;s shops and note what types of services are in demand in your area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have a limited budget, you can start with a xerox\/photocopy machine with 50 pages per minute capacity. Add other basic machines like a binding machine, lamination machine etc. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Do not buy second-hand machines because the maintenance of the machine will cost you more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can expand your services by selling stationery items like pens, notebooks, markers, pen drives etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"250\" src=\"https:\/\/smallbusinesshub.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/photocopy-business-plan.jpg\" alt=\"photocopy business plan\" class=\"wp-image-27935\" srcset=\"https:\/\/smallbusinesshub.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/photocopy-business-plan.jpg 600w, https:\/\/smallbusinesshub.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/photocopy-business-plan-300x125.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Deciding the price for your services is also an important factor. You should know the cost per page printing. Decide the price by looking at your competitors. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Other important things are, requiring a computer system with basic software like Microsoft Word, Excel, Powerpoint, Corel Draw, Photoshop, and an internet connection to access email.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, you should have good knowledge about the alignment of pages and operate different software mentioned above. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Machines_and_tools_required\"><\/span>Machines and tools required<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Photocopy\/Xerox machine<\/li><li>Lamination machine<\/li><li>Spiral binding machine<\/li><li>Colour printer<\/li><li>Computer system<\/li><li>Toner\/cartridge\/ink<\/li><li>Different size papers like A4, A3, A2 etc.<\/li><li>Softwares like MS Word, MS Excel, MS PowerPoint, Corel Draw, Photoshop<\/li><li>Wifi Connection<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Manpower_Required\"><\/span>Manpower Required<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are starting a small shop then you do not require any employees. For a medium scale shop, you may require 1 to 2 employees. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For them, you can set salaries between 13,000 and 17,000 rupees per month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The total manpower depends upon the scale on which you are planning to start your business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Marketing_your_Xerox_shop\"><\/span>Marketing your Xerox shop<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you provide a good service, you can easily do business by word of mouth over time. You can also do offline marketing, for example, distributing flyers and social media marketing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The shops near the colleges may get a huge workload from students during the project\/assignment submission times. So during this time, you need to work extra hours, to give good service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Licenses_and_registration_required\"><\/span>Licenses and registration required<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You do not require any special licenses to start a xerox shop business in India. Shop &amp; Establishment Registration and Business Registration (sole proprietorship) are enough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have basic documents like an Aadhar card, PAN Card, Bank Account &amp; Shop rental agreement, then you could easily get these Registrations. You can take help from any CA or legal agencies to get these documents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>GST Certificate is not necessary if you are planning a small shop. As per government norms, for a service-oriented business, the yearly turnover limit has been set to 20 lakhs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, if your annual turnover exceeds 20 lakhs then only you need to register for the GST.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have limited capital, then you can approach banks like SIDBI for a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sidbi.in\/en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">business loan<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Xerox_shop_business_cost\"><\/span>Xerox shop business cost<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"188\" src=\"https:\/\/smallbusinesshub.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Xerox-business-cost.jpg\" alt=\"Xerox business cost\" class=\"wp-image-27936\" srcset=\"https:\/\/smallbusinesshub.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Xerox-business-cost.jpg 600w, https:\/\/smallbusinesshub.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Xerox-business-cost-300x94.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>To start a xerox shop or a photocopy business in India, you require an investment of 4 lakh rupees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The initial investments required are,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Photocopy\/Xerox machine -&gt; 2 lakhs (50 copies per minute)<\/li><li>Lamination machine -&gt; 5,000 rupees<\/li><li>Spiral binding machine -&gt; 7,000 rupees<\/li><li>Color printer -&gt; 15,000 rupees<\/li><li>Computer system -&gt; 40,000 rupees<\/li><li>Toner\/cartridge\/Ink &#8211; 15,000 (In the beginning)<\/li><li>Wifi Setup &#8211; 2,000 rupees<\/li><li>Supply and materials -&gt; 10,000 rupees ( paper, stapler etc )<\/li><li>Shop interior &amp; Exterior -&gt; 25,000 rupees ( table, chairs, racks, signage board)<\/li><li>Marketing &amp; registrations -&gt; 6,000 rupees<\/li><li>Shop security deposit -&gt; 35,000 rupees ( Varies according to location )<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to include a Jumbo xerox machine then you need to invest more.
