Our FOCO model ensures investors see transparency, utilisation and strong IRR while supporting local communities and the environment."

The company’s FOCO model allows HNIs and Family Offices to invest directly in EV assets managed by Hala’s professional fleet and service network. It claims to have an Internal Rate of Return (IRR) of 25.1 percent, each INR 10 million invested generates employment for over 200 riders, offsets nearly 400 tonnes of CO2 annually and contributes to Hala’s circular ecosystem, including refurbishment (Leven), recycling (Zyora) and battery remanufacturing (Energix).

What’s more, the company also operates Hala One, a FOFO (Franchise Owned, Franchise Operated) model, which allows potential partners to join the network for INR 999 per vehicle per month and receive business development support, operational training, access to Cercle OS software, IoT dashboards, predictive maintenance, analytics and uptime support.
