Dear Mr Heera Singh,

In addition to the costs that you have mentioned, roughly your success in business will depend on managing following costs:
a) Inventory Carrying Cost of Raw Materials
b) Work in Progress (WIP) Inventory Costs
c) Inventory Carrying Cost of Finished Goods
d) Capital costs to run the operations
e) Capacity costs
f) Maintenance costs
g) Quality costs
h) Marketing costs
i) Ordering costs
j) Other Admin costs
You need to measure these costs scientifically. That is not easy. For this, you need to hire some consultant. Feel free to contact me for further clarification.
All the best!
