Q: How are the scores computed?

Composite = 0.4·(Long-run H=90/M=60/L=30) + 0.3·(Tenure normalized to 30y=100) + 0.2·(Demand Strong=90/Neutral=60/Weak=30) + 0.1·(Automation risk reversed). Entry Accessibility = 0.6·Foot-in-Door + 0.2·Capital affordability + 0.2·Pathway score.

Method, Scores & Assumptions

Composite Sustainability = 0.4·(Long-run H=90/M=60/L=30) + 0.3·(Tenure normalized to 30y=100) + 0.2·(Demand Strong=90/Neutral=60/Weak=30) + 0.1·(Automation risk reversed: Low=90/Med=60/High=30). Entry Accessibility = 0.6·Foot-in-Door + 0.2·Capital affordability band + 0.2·Entry pathways score.

Definitions of Foot-in-the-door, Tenure, and Long-run sustainability follow the thesis article. Regulation shorthand: FSSAI, RERA, NISM/IRDAI/SEBI, EPF/ESI, Shops & Establishments, etc. Regional notes: metro vs Tier-2/3, agri belts, infra corridors.
