The correct comperasion would be Shaurya Class OPV and the NGOPV, Shanchi Class replacement OPV when compared to this the Yamrook dosent stand.

I just calculated Pakistan navy defence budget vs Indian coast guard.
IN. PAK
50 million-2020 64 million-2020
In rupees. In rp.

2017-2022. 2018-2023
32000 crore in. rp. 45000 crore in.rp

15700 soldiers. 32500 soldiers

Investment on training/soldier.
30,10,000. 9,21,000

Indian coast guard does not compete Pakistan navy budget wise.

Why don’t we have a program for making 6 SSGNs? We should have as we can’t ignore Nuclear Cruise Missile submarines as they are a huge force multiplier. USS Georgia is an SSGN of 17k ton displacement and carries 154 Tomahawk Cruise missiles. Some similar submarines should be made in India and commissioned.
According to Trishul blog, First 4 boats will be SSGN's and S5 class will be true SSBN's.

Why not compare the Shaurya Class OPV with the Yarmook class. Despiet being 10 years old has better sea going capabilities and a little bit larger range.
Paki light Corvette.
Displacement:2,300 tonnes
Length:90 m (272 ft 4 in)
Beam:14.4 m (44 ft 11 in)
Draught:3.75 m (12 ft 4 in)
Propulsion:4 × MTU engines
Speed:23.0 knots (40.7 km/h; 25.3 mph)
Complement:90
Armament:1 × ASELSAN SMASH fitted with 30mm Mk44 Bushmaster II auto cannon
FN MAG
FN Minimi
Aircraft carried:Helipad for 1.
Vs
Surya Class.
Displacement:2,230 t (2,190 long tons; 2,460 short tons)
Length:105 m (344 ft)
Beam:12.9 m (42 ft)
Draught:3.6 m (12 ft)
Propulsion:2 × Pielstick PA 6B STC diesel engines, 21,725 PS (15,979 kW)
Speed:25 kn (46 km/h).
Range:6,500 nmi (12,000 km) at 12 kn (22 km/h)
Complement:8 officers and 105 sailors.
Sensors and
processing systems:
Sperry Bridgemaster I-band navigation radar.
EON-51 electro-optical FCS.
Electronic warfare
& decoys:

Sanket Mk III Electronic Support System.
Communication Intelligence System ELK 7036.
4 × Kavach chaff launchers.
Armament:
Aircraft carried:1 × HAL Dhruv.

It's still Surya who has better armanent and also sensors. And the Yarmook has a lot of COTS technology not specifically designed for the Naval Vessels.

Interesting question.

Superficially, both Yarmook and Saryu Class OPVs (Samarth class is a derivative of Saryu for ICG) are similar in appearance and capability. Saryu and Samarth are however larger ships. Aside from this the main difference in capability are;

- As commissioned, Yarmook and Tarbuk have barely any armament. Saryu on the other hand is equipped with a cool 76mm cannon and 2 x 30mm Cwiz. There are rumours though, that PN will upgrade its ships with weapons separately, thus transforming the ships into a patrol corvette. Lets see.

- Yarmook's design as a stern ramp for RHIB - its faster than deploying RHIBs from davits and I believe it also allows for a larger RHIB.

- To manage costs, PN has built these OPVs to commercial standards. Saryu is ofcourse built to naval standards which includes thicker/better quality steel.

8 x C-802 on Yarmook and Tabuk and will be classified as Corvette in PN.
6 bigger variant of Yarmook class will be further ordered with similar specs.

Also you are right abt the commercial grade hull in order to reduce cost.

Yes, Saryu class has a very optimal fit for a OPV. It's exactly the type of ship IN needs.
