Employee car lease
Employee car lease is a unique solution that offers a cost-effective, flexible and a convenient way for employees to get a salary packaged car.

What is a salary packaged car?
An employee car lease allows employers to structure an employee’s salary package smartly, by making the lease payment from the pre-tax income of the employee, thereby reducing the taxable income. A lower taxable income = a lower payable tax and a higher take home salary. Such salary packaging helps employers to attract new talent and retain existing ones. Contrary to paying for the entire cost of the car to own it, an employee car lease allows employees to use the car for the contracted tenure and mileage by paying affordable monthly lease rentals only towards the usage of the car, i.e. the depreciation value of the car + any services opted for and return the car back at the end of the contract. This is a long-term lease with the lease period ranging from a minimum of 12 months up to 60 months.

How can corporates introduce employee car lease?
Corporates can tie-up with Ayvens by signing a Master Lease Agreement for providing cars on operational lease. Under this arrangement, the corporate takes the cars on lease from Ayvens for its employee for the duration of his/her employment. After signing the MLA, a Vehicle Lease Contract is executed between Ayvens and the Registered Owner, which is the employer, in case of a bi-party employee car lease. The car registered in the name of the corporate is assigned to an individual and not a role and is ordered as per the employee’s specification (subject to eligibility defined by the employer). Employees get to drive cars with a white (private) registration number plate.
Under employee car lease we provide various contract options to choose from:
Ugo Ugo is a tri-partite employee car lease contract between an employer, an employee, and Ayvens, where the employer is jointly and severely responsible for all liabilities along with the employee. Ugo contract is beneficial in scenarios where employee attrition is high as in the event of an employee separation from the current employer, the contract is transferable to the next employer, or even privately onto the employee (subject to credit check), thereby ensuring zero administrative hassle of contract termination to the employer and no added cost of early termination to the employee. No credit appraisal of the employee is required at the beginning of contract. A credit appraisal of the employee is performed only at the event of separation from the current employer and while transferring the lease onto the employee privately. A tri-partite contract ensures proper division of accountability between the employer and the employee, where the employee is responsible for all liabilities arising from violation of the motor vehicle act and the employer for all financial liabilities as well as notifying us 30 days in advance of employee separation. However, in the event of employee failing to abide by his responsibilities, the employer is responsible to fulfil those. Ugo contract enables to register the car on the name of the employee, thereby avoiding change of registered owner multiple times, which otherwise would lead to increased depreciation in car value. Ugo Connect Ugo Connect is a tri-partite employee car lease contract offered to organizations with a large employee strength to extend tax-savings benefit to a wider employee base. Employers have a near zero risk of running the car policy with Ugo Connect contract as only a concise agreement is signed for payment related liabilities, transferring all vehicle related liabilities to the registered owner (employee). There is no joint liability between the corporate and the employee. Only liability of the company apart from the payment obligation is to provide the right information to us for credit check of the employee and inform about the separation/ termination of the employee 30 days prior. A Master Lease Agreement is signed between the employer and Ayvens for providing cars on operational lease and fleet management services, if opted for. Under this arrangement, the employer takes cars on lease from Ayvens for its employees for the duration of his/her employment. After signing the MLA, a Vehicle Lease Contract along with a Registered Owner Agreement, is executed between Ayvens, the employer and the Registered Owner (employee), where the employee acknowledges his/ her responsibility under the ROA. Credit evaluation of the employee is done before signing the contract with the employee to determine his /her eligibility. Onboarding of the employee is subject to credit worthiness. Smart Plus Smart Plus is an employee car lease contract offering the option to buy the leased car at an attractive cost at the end of the contract. Buy-back price is fixed at the time of signing the contract. To calculate the buy-back price, the resale price that the car will fetch after the end of tenure is estimated and increased by 5%. Increased resale value means reduced lease rental. At the end of the contract, the user will get the opportunity to purchase the car at this pre-fixed price or at the actual market price, whichever option is lower. Therefore, Smart contract provides more transparency on usage and resale cost. Smart Plus can be availed along with employee car lease (bi-party contract) and Ugo or Ugo connect (tri-party) contract.Additional services that come along with an employee car lease
