Exact terms depend on your dealership plan and are set out in your agreement.
| What is protected | Part of the franchise investment, under performance-linked conditions, on eligible dealership plans. |
| Monthly support | Up to ₹10,000 per month, as per the applicable dealership plan. |
| Usage incentive | ₹5 per unit (kWh) for charging consumption above 4,000 units a month, subject to the dealership terms. |
| Buyback / exit | Available as an option. It is not a full refund of the initial investment — the amount depends on the valuation at the time of exit, whether that is after three months or a year. |
| On buyback or exit | Relux handles the applicable electricity (EB) and rental expenses. |
| Ownership | Partners may have the option to take ownership of the station later. |
| ROI | Relux does not promise a guaranteed ROI. A station may be projected to recover its investment in about three years; Relux's expected ROI range is 3–5 years. |
What it means for you
Support while the station ramps up
Monthly support of up to ₹10,000 helps cover the early months while EV traffic at a new site builds.
Bonus revenue as usage grows
Above 4,000 units a month you earn an extra ₹5 per unit on top of normal charging revenue.
A defined exit
If you need to exit, the buyback is based on the station's valuation at that time — not a full refund, but not a dead end either.
