Most people have an idea of starting a business, but some of the people don’t have a proper approach and go in the wrong direction to start a new business. This article discusses the top 50 business ideas. I think it is easy to choose a great view from this list.
1: EKART SERVICES
Ekart and e-commercial services have picked up a significant pace during the past few years. Amazon is the leading company in this category. CEO of Amazon, Jeff Bezos, started this company in a small garage, and after a long time and hard work, he became the world’s richest person.
Amazon started its services with books, later expanded to many fields ranging from daily commodities to electrical appliances. Recently, Amazon started to sell pantry items. Many websites followed the same principle and became successful within no time. Many companies are launched in India like Flipkart, SnapDeal, and became successful within no time.

Every restaurant has a unique concept for its place. Some food courts tend to attract couples while some hotels pleasantly make their surroundings to give an excellent place for a family.
The menu card is a vital thing for the food stall. Your menu card must include the full price versions of the food items. Some hotels have a habit of excluding the taxes on their menu card. This habit leaves a wrong impression for your customers when they have to pay the bill. So, I believe it is proper etiquette to include tax prices on your menu card.
You can increase your sales by opening many branches across your city and your state. Reputed food companies like KFC, Dominos followed these principles to expand their business. Now everyone knows that these reputed restaurants have food chains almost across the globe. So, follow these steps to start a hotel or to expand your business.
3: TRANSPORTATION
Though there are many public transport facilities, there is always significant for private transport. One can start an online cab service like UBER. UBER began its function in one of the metropolitan cities of America known as California, and now the services have expanded across 785 metropolitan cities. An interesting fact is that the Californian government declared UBER as public transport.
Currently, some people started a bike taxi. The word may sound strange, but they offer a fantastic service. Recently, a team started a bike taxi called Rapido and achieved a great name and fame within no time. They charge a nominal fee for the destination, and they reach the destination faster than a car, and many people you know to ride a bike have got a job.
In metropolitan cities like Chennai, Hyderabad, you must need a vehicle for every single necessity. Some people may not afford a car and may approach a bike rental or a car rental. You may think it is expensive to buy many bikes. But, you may contact the bike owners having a new vehicle. You can pay the commission to the vehicle owners for using their cars. You must maintain proper precautions before lending the car to a customer by gathering his/her details and making an appropriate deposit.
Similarly, you can also start a car rental service. Many couples have a dream to go for a long drive but cannot afford a car. So you can be a bridge for many couples to achieve their goal and enjoy some beautiful moments in their lives.
4: TOURISM
I believe no one on this planet wouldn’t love to visit new places during their vacation. Tourism has considerable demand around the market. Many tourism websites have come up during the last couple of years. Many travel and tourism organizations like southern travels, make my trip have gained immense recognition among the public during these days.
Tourism not only includes building a website. It also includes many other things like travel, hotels, and sightseeing, etc. People expect a lot of things when they visit a place. So, you can start a business to make the environment better. For example, if your city has a beach, you can begin a boating service. There are various options available under boating. You can buy a couple boat for love birds. You can start a speed boat for young people because many people are fascinated with this feature.
A pleasant and comfortable stay is equally important as other things. Everyone is planning to start a hotel or a restaurant in densely populated areas. Starting a hotel or a restaurant in these areas will fetch you the right amount of money in that area. You can serve many styles of dishes that attract various sectors of people like Chinese, Italian, etc. One can also start a resort at a beach, and there is no need for people to check for another place.

Call Health also offers an online appointment with qualified doctors in the city. So, you can take the doctor’s advice without actually stepping out of your house.
One can expand their medical stores by opening many branches across the city. There is a company called Seven Hills. This company started a base in one place and eventually expanded its stores to many locations across the city. Currently, this company has around 10-15 branches in my town. If you have a large building, you can give that building for a hospital on rent or lease. You can also earn a considerable amount in this manner. In this field, you must provide better prices to make customers buy the stuff from you. I also believe that one can succeed by maintaining low overhead and operating costs.

7: STORAGE UNITS
Every product based company or business requires a lot of space to store its products for a long time. You can be their helping hand by establishing godowns with plenty of light and air. Though this business requires a high amount of capital and labour during the initial stages, I think you gain those returns within no time. Make sure that your godown or storage unit is accessible to the people.
One can modify their storage unit to cold storage that helps many farmers to store their crops during odd seasons. Make sure that you maintain appropriate precautions while building the cold storage unit as they have many chances to be prone to short circuits.
