For the model where scale symmetry is broken only in the inflaton sector, the mass of the inflaton is constrained to be relatively low. Here, we analysed the previously omitted situation of the inflaton masses mχ≳250 GeV. Therefore, we provide a window of inflaton masses with viable inflationary properties that evade direct observational constraints, due to their small mixing with the Higgs sector. The addition of heavy neutral leptons with Majorana masses induced by the interaction with the inflaton allow for Cold Dark Matter in the model with masses O(1−10) MeV.
