Sandalwood trees produce extremely valuable wood and oil. As demand rises but natural forests shrink, prices have gone very high. Well-managed sandalwood farm investments promise big profits later when trees mature. This opportunity is still new and early investors could make over 20 times returns in 10-15 years.
The sandalwood tree is very special. Its wood and oil have a nice sweet smell used to make perfumes, skin creams, incense sticks and religious carvings across Asia. Its oil and paste also work as medicine.
But real sandalwood trees now grow very rarely in wild forests. And the remaining trees cannot meet increasing demand. So prices for real pure sandalwood have gone up a lot. In 2013, one kilogram of good sandalwood wood was worth around ₹1,200. Now just 10 years later, the same amount of high-quality sandalwood costs over ₹12,500 per kg!
Experts think sandalwood prices will keep rising as long as demand is much more than the limited supply.
An investment involving buying young sandalwood trees on a farm, caring for them properly until mature to sell the valuable wood is called a sandalwood plantation.
These types of forestry investments promise investors big returns in the future but require waiting 15-25 years for trees to grow their best quality thick sandalwood wood.
The returns come from both the high sandalwood price rise expected over years + the large wood weight from each grown tree getting over 8-12kg or more.
If managed right, investors could earn over 20 times their original investment from selling mature trees or wood by agreements made today. That means turning ₹10 lakhs principal into over ₹2 crores ultimately. No other investment does this. Even if you don't sell early, harvesting old trees lets owners earn lakhs in profits per tree - year after year.
So why doesn't everyone do this? Because sandalwood farming needs skill, you must wait 10+ years for income, and good opportunities are rare. Dhatri Sandal Farms makes this easier.
Dhatri has experience growing quality sandalwood the right way for over 25 years. They use advanced methods for fast growth with intercropping other fruits and vegetables that bring early returns until the main trees mature.
Their plantation investment model offers participation to more investors who share profits when trees get sold later.
Only about 84 investors can join because Dhatri limits units to keep everything high quality at their 26 acre orchard. With accurate forecasts, even smaller investors can expect very large returns over time.
Dhatri plants 95 baby sandalwood saplings spaced properly in each quarter acre plot investors purchase for the minimum ₹27 lakh investment. Expert guidance then nurtures these saplings for 15-25 years using drip irrigation, grafting and protection until ready for selective harvesting.
In total three phases will fill 26 acres with over 8,000 sandalwood trees by 2040. Dhatri handles everything from security to training personnel and runs a separate exclusive distillery factory to process the valuable wood and refined oils at maturity.
When the valuable trees get cut, investors who participated get 60% of the full value upon final sale to Dhatri's parent company at guaranteed buyback rates. So you can choose to exit partially or fully then. Or stay invested without needing to contribute any land or farming costs ever.
The remaining share goes to Dhatri to cover operations and expand cultivation. So it is a win-win investment partnership.
Dhatri estimates each plot with around 95 trees can return ₹17 crores or more after 15 years. That is over 21 times the money originally invested!
Such a long term investment needs trust and transparency. Dhatri partners with independent scientists from the Institute of Wood Science and Technology who check soil quality, tree health, oil content and payments to ensure standards match what is promised to those funding investors.
This 3rd party project certification requires Dhatri's team of agriculture experts to strictly follow organic and sustainable farming practices for premium grade A results. Onsite soil analysis, agronomy supervision and auditor verification give clients confidence their participation directly fuels top notch management for maximized outcomes.
Besides earning well from selling the incredibly valuable mature sandalwood tree heartwood later, Dhatri aims to build an entire estate and sanctuary those who invest can also enjoy. Surrounding scenic farmland stays protected when investors jointly participate in vital forest restoration.
Proposed accommodation cottages, hospitality suites and recreation zones give part-owners privileges to access the grounds. With horses, pools, walking trails and more amenities within the secure plantations - it feels like your own private nature getaway.
Overall, sandalwood farm investments promise exponentially growing demand with limited supply for years creating near certain price hikes. Managed professionally with buyback guarantees, Dhatri's model offers smart investors a chance at 20X future returns supporting reliable forestry.
The small initial group who invests can ride a lucrative wave while claiming a slice of India's booming organic plantation industry. This chance is available because people overlook sandalwoods slow but almost guaranteed exponential reward curve.
With crops in place already maturing by 2040, take advantage of this vision for amplified profits from one of nature's rarest assets.
What is the minimum investment amount?

What is the estimated return on investment?
Customers report realising a 1:21 ROI ratio thanks to rising sandalwood prices and Dhatri's buyback program. For a ₹15 lakh investment that could mean over ₹3 crores at maturity.
How long until I realise returns?
Dhatri's sandalwood trees take 15-25 years to fully mature. But interim annual yields from intercropped fruits and vegetables provide early income.
When can I exit my investment or redeem funds?
There is a guaranteed buyback program at maturity offered exclusively by Dhatri to deliver returns or investors can choose to stay invested long-term.

Sandalwood returns significantly outpace real estate with lower entry costs while also offering tax-free income that physical gold does not.
How are the sandalwood trees protected from theft?
24/7 onsite security plus plantation proximity to owners' cottages deters timber theft. Saplings also lack value until maturity.
What part of the tree is actually valuable?
The dense heartwood core concentrating the essential oils commands high market prices reaching ₹12,500/kg currently. Trees can yield 8-12kg each.
