Compliance-as-a-Service

FPO Compliance Plus

A bundled, subscription-based compliance management service tailored for Farmer Producer Organizations (FPOs) in Odisha

"We handle compliance—so you focus on farming and growth."

Why Compliance-as-a-Service for FPOs?

Most FPOs struggle with statutory filings, audits, and scheme compliances due to limited capacity (only ~30% file timely returns per NABARD data).

Bundling compliance as a paid service generates recurring revenue (15–20% of total ₹100 Cr target) while building stickiness—FPOs stay longer in the ecosystem for trade/marketing support.

Positions the Accelerator as a full-stack partner: Aggregation → Processing → Marketing → Compliance.
