• Unless otherwise agreed in writing, payment for our Services shall be made in accordance with the following schedule:

  • A deposit of [e.g., 30%] of the total quoted amount is due prior to project mobilisation (commencement of field operations).

  • The remaining balance is due upon completion of the Services and/or upon delivery of our final data-package or report, unless alternately scheduled.

• If milestone invoicing is agreed (for larger or multi-stage projects), the payment breakdown, amounts and due dates will be set out in the contract or proposal.

• All invoices are due and payable within [e.g., 15 / 30] calendar days from the invoice date, unless otherwise agreed in writing.

Payments may be made via the following methods (unless otherwise specified):

• Bank transfer (domestic / international) to our designated account.

• Online payment gateway (credit/debit card, digital wallet) if offered.

• Cheque or demand draft where applicable (subject to clearance).

• Other method by mutual agreement in writing.

• All sums quoted are in [Indian Rupees (INR) / or specified currency].

• The Client shall be responsible for any applicable taxes, duties (GST, etc.), charges and bank-transfer fees associated with the payment.

• If currency conversion is involved, any exchange rate fluctuations or conversion fees shall be borne by the Client.

• If full payment (or agreed instalment) is not received by the due date, AirOne Robotics reserves the right to:

  • Charge a late fee of [e.g., 1.5% per month] on the outstanding balance, compounded monthly.

  • Suspend or withhold further Services, data delivery or support until payment is made in full.

  • Terminate the contract and seek recovery of outstanding amounts plus associated costs.

• The Client remains liable for all work performed and costs incurred up to the point of suspension or termination.

• If the Client cancels the project before commencement of field operations, the deposit may be non-refundable if mobilisation or preparatory costs have been incurred.

• If cancellation occurs after the field work has begun, the Client will be invoiced for all work performed and expenses incurred up to the date of cancellation.

• Refunds of payments already made (if applicable) will be at our sole discretion, and any agreed refund will be processed after deduction of incurred costs, internal charges and bank/transaction fees.

• Invoices will clearly state: our legal entity name, invoice number, date, description of Services rendered, amount due, due date, our bank/payment details and applicable taxes.

• Discrepancies or queries regarding an invoice must be communicated in writing within [e.g., 7 days] of invoice receipt; failure to do so may prevent any adjustment.

• If the Client anticipates difficulty in meeting a payment deadline, they should notify us immediately. We may in our discretion agree to an alternative payment arrangement, provided such agreement is documented in writing.

• Dispute of any part of an invoice does not relieve the Client from payment of undisputed amounts by the due date.

• AirOne Robotics reserves the right to modify this Payment Policy at any time. Clients will be notified of material changes and the updated version will be posted on our website.

• Unless otherwise stated, changes will apply to new engagements only and not retroactively to existing contracts already signed.
