Thank you Paresh. Both the discussion thread and link are helpful.
I found a soil moisture meter with display with NPK level detection as well from a company called Gaby In India itself. This is a hand held device. I will be updating my experience using the same after we complete the trails for any anyone who is interested.

Hello Hiranya.
A colleague of mine who is working on developing a low-cost instrument to measure soil moisture opines that the same instrument could be used to measure moisture content in sludge provided it can read from 0-100%.

I'd also bring to your attention this thread regarding Faecal Sludge Field Laboratory - Discussions . The list of equipment for a FSFL includes this: Soil Moisture Sensor Vernier SMS-BTA www.vernier.com/products/sensors/sms-bta/

Hope this helps.

Best
