Methodology

How we calculate
your ROI.

Industry-standard TCO methodology refined through 500+ robotics deployments across India. Inflation-adjusted, includes Indian statutory obligations.

Core Formula
ROI = (Annual Savings + Productivity − Operating Costs) / Total Investment × 100

Payback = Total Investment / Net Annual Benefit × 12 months

Labor Savings = FTEs × Auto% × Fully-Loaded Cost × (1 + Productivity%)
01

Fully-Loaded Labor Cost

Base salary is only 60% of true cost. Includes employer PF (12%), ESI/gratuity (8%), benefits (12%), supervision (10%).

02

Realistic Automation Potential

Warehouse picking (75–85%), pallet transport (90–95%), machine tending (60–70%), assembly tasks (30–50%).

03

Productivity Multipliers

2–3× utilization (24/7 vs 8-hr shifts), 15–25% faster cycle times, 99.5%+ consistency, zero absenteeism.

04

Hidden Cost Elimination

Recruitment ₹15k–25k/hire, training 40–80 hrs @ loaded cost, errors ₹200–₹2,000/incident, overtime 2× base.
