Rental Policy
Last Updated: October 2026
1. Handover & Return Protocol
Vehicles must be collected and returned at the designated Orbit Hub station specified during reservation. During handover, the station executive and customer conduct a joint digital inspection logging odometer reading, battery percentage, and existing scratches via the app.
2. Distance Allowance & Extra Kilometre Charges
Each rental includes a designated kilometre allowance specified on your plan (e.g. 200 km/day for scooters, 300 km/day for cars). Any excess distance traversed is billed at the extra KM rate (₹3/km for scooters, ₹9/km for cars) upon return inspection.
3. Battery State of Charge (SoC) at Return
Customers receive the EV with at least 90–100% battery SoC. It is expected that vehicles are returned with a minimum of 15% battery to prevent deep-discharge cell degradation. If returned below 15%, a nominal deep-discharge handling fee of ₹150 applies.
4. Rental Extensions
Extensions must be requested via the Customer Web Panel or Mobile App at least 2 hours before the scheduled return time, subject to vehicle availability. Overstay without extension will incur the standard hourly rate plus an unauthorized delay charge.
5. Traffic Citations & Fines
Any traffic challans, parking violations, or toll evasion penalties incurred during the rental window remain the sole legal and financial liability of the renter.
