Wedding season in winter keeps demand going for house and shop painting. Note which products ran short and which stayed on the shelf; that list is your plan for next year.

- Shop name, town and full address
- Counter space and a stable power supply for a tinting machine
- The paint and hardware brands you sell today
- A rough idea of who buys from you: homes, painters, contractors, institutions
- GST registration and the usual business documents
- The person who will handle orders and payments
The selling calendar for a paint counter in this region
Paint sales in the Gwalior region follow the seasons. October and November are the busiest months, driven by Diwali repainting. The wedding season in winter brings another round of house and shop painting. After the rabi harvest in March and April, many rural families start building, which lifts putty, primer, cement paint and economy emulsions. From April to June, roof waterproofing and heat-reflective coatings sell ahead of the monsoon, and July to September is the quietest period for exterior work. Plan stock and staff around this cycle rather than ordering the same quantity every month.
