Real-World Scenarios

Sample 1
₹25L Clinic Capex
3.2 Year Payback

Assuming 15 patients/day at ₹800 fee. After 3.2 years, your clinic becomes a high-margin asset. Unlike a salary, a clinic has ₹Resale Value₹—you can sell the goodwill to another doctor later.

Sample 2
Hospital Visiting (Zero Cost)
Linear Income

No overhead, but the hospital takes a 30-45% cut of your consultation fee. Best for beginners, but limits your brand growth and long-term equity.
