INTRODUCTION
A project is defined as a scientifically evolved work plan devised to achieve a specific objective with a specified period of time. The three basic attributes are a course of action, specific objectives and defined perspective. It should be amenable to planning, financing and implementation as a unit where both costs and returns are measurable. A well planned project includes a correct consideration of alternatives, identification of key issues, broad participation, compactness and enforceability. It should be clear cut, neat, and of course specific. The project is an important groundwork of an enterprise and is also very crucial to the entrepreneur. Invariably an entrepreneur cannot succeed in his venture. The concept of projects is intrinsically woven with all socioeconomic and cultural activities. I have made an attempt to develop a project plan of starting a fast food joint in Rohtak, Haryana. Basically its a service sector project and it is growing at a rapid pace in India. Fast food joint is not a common project in Rohtak. Its influenced by the western culture. Fast food joint is a place where people specially youth like to come and eat food along with some chat with their friends in a causal ambience.
