Indian Tribal Products has high demand in the International market but the quality of the Tribal Products are not been analyzed by scientific technique, as no R&D is involved with the sector. A Lost-Wax Investment cast metal craft traditions were adopted for the project which has been in practice from the ancient age. An experiment was designed and done to understand the effect of gating design which controls the quality of the casting. The quality of castings was analyzed based on Eccentricity, Uniformity of Thickness, Surface Quality and Surface Roughness. The preferable gating system was chosen using TOPSIS.
