What this page is
An outline of Azita's standard hosting terms for pilot sites, written so that a site owner knows what is coming and a lawyer knows what to look for. It is not an offer and it is not the contract. Where this page and a signed document differ, the signed document wins. Figures here are the standard schedule; a site's own figures are in its own paper.
Two documents
- A short registered leave-and-licence for the room. The same instrument class telecom rooftops use. It licenses one room for one pod. No tenancy is created and no interest in the property passes.
- A master agreement for everything else. The pod, its operation, the payments, the meter, safety, insurance, access, and exit. One document, one signature, every filing handled by Azita.
The money
The floor
A contracted annual floor of ₹4.87 L per pod per year, fixed in the hosting terms and paid monthly by NEFT, before the meter adds a rupee. It is owed whether the pod is busy or idle. Source.
The kicker
Above the floor, a metered kicker read off the same revenue-grade meter that settles the electricity, capped at ₹15 to 18 L per pod per year. The model puts it at ₹7.2 L a year at 60% duty. That figure is modelled, not yet measured; the pilot's job is to measure it. The kicker is a function of metered duty. It is never a share of what the pod earns. Source.
Power, at actuals
Every unit the pod draws is measured on a revenue-grade meter and reimbursed by Azita at the host's own utility tariff, as a separate line, never netted against the floor or the kicker, and never resold. The host never sells Azita power and never funds Azita's power. Pod power is Azita's own consumption. The tax treatment of hosting payments is set out in the agreement. Source.
What Azita does
- Surveys the room once, at no cost and with no commitment from the owner.
- Shows the owner a photoreal render of the pod in that room before anything is signed.
- Designs the pod for the room, files every regulatory filing at its own cost, and installs without construction, water or a new connection.
- Insures the pod on its own policy with the building named additional insured, and drafts the disclosure endorsement the owner's property insurer needs.
- Operates the pod remotely, maintains it, and removes it at exit.
What the host never does
- Never puts in capital.
- Never staffs anything.
- Never changes its own supply, connection or sanctioned load.
- Never wires the pod to its generator or UPS; the pod is the first load to shed, by contract.
- Never handles the hardware or touches customer data.
- Never sells power to Azita or buys power for Azita.
- Never owes anything if the pod is idle; the floor runs the other way.
Safety, as the agreement states it
Installation is under the CEA (Measures relating to Safety and Electric Supply) Regulations, 2023, by a state-licensed electrical contractor, with an independent Chartered Electrical Safety Engineer engaged per site and the test report filed with the Electrical Inspector before energisation. The building's existing fire NOC continues to govern; the pod enters as equipment with its own smoke detection, clean-agent suppression and alarm-triggered power cut-off, and holds no lithium batteries by design. The full regime table is on the trust page.
The pod, as the agreement describes it
- One ordinary room. No structural work.
- Ten kilowatts from the building's existing sanctioned connection, at 415 V three-phase and twenty amps a phase, off the board that already feeds the floor; no new connection. At the meter the pod draws 14.0 to 14.4 kW, and the room's cooling is sized for that. Source.
- Air-cooled, no water draw; the room's cooling rejects the heat.
- Azita-owned, remotely run, on Azita's insurance.
Exit
Pilot hosts carry no lock-in. Thirty days' notice from either side; the pod is out within 48 hours of the exit date; the room is returned as found. Before the pod moves, on-site media is cryptographically erased and a signed Certificate of Data Destruction is issued, so nothing customer-readable is left in the building. These are clauses in the master agreement, not lines in a brochure. Source.
Post-pilot terms (term length, renewal, escalation) are set per site and are not outlined here.
Access and audit
The owner keeps the access rights the leave-and-licence gives it. Azita's access for installation, maintenance and removal is scheduled with the owner, and any customer audit of a pod on the premises is arranged through Azita under the customer's own agreement.

A survey. One visit: dimensions, airflow, panel. Free, and it commits you to nothing. Book a site survey or write to hello@azitalabs.com.
