If what you state comes under small and medium scale industry then Small and medium scale enterprises (SMEs) are understood in India as enterprises where the investment in plant and machinery or equipment is between Rs. 25 lakhs.

This definition is provided in Section 7 of Micro, Small & Medium Enterprises Development Act, 2006

The enterprises can take any form - proprietorship, company, cooperative, association of persons, Hindu Undivided Family[1] , partnership etc. Further, this definition is not restricted by the number of persons employed by the firm nor the electricity consumed by the firm, as was the case in the past.

Small scale industries are mostly located in urban centres as separate units, but the cottage industries are normally associated with agriculture and provide subsidiary employment in rural areas.

Thus since your proposed small industry do not involve health care issues or food and safety measures, it can be treated or considered as small industry and you may proceed on that line for following further procedures aas envisaged.
