Annual Maintenance Contract

જાળવણી કરાર

Ongoing maintenance of equipment or premises. The value is entirely in the response time and the exclusions.

e-StampNotary

Comprehensive or non-comprehensive?

This is the first question and it decides the price. A comprehensive AMC includes parts; a non-comprehensive one covers labour and visits only, with parts charged separately. Contracts that do not say which they are produce an argument at the first significant failure.

What the contract must specify

  • The equipment or premises covered, listed by make, model and serial number where possible.
  • Preventive visits — how many, at what interval, and what each visit covers.
  • Breakdown response — the time to attend and, separately, the time to restore. A four-hour response with an unlimited repair time is not much of a promise.
  • Exclusions — consumables, physical damage, power fluctuation, misuse, and acts of God. Read these before signing; they are where the contract narrows.
  • Parts — original or equivalent, and the lead time on unavailable parts.
  • Charges, payment schedule and escalation on renewal.
  • Downtime credits or penalties, where uptime genuinely matters.
  • Term, renewal and termination.
For lifts, fire systems and pressure equipment.

Where the equipment is subject to statutory inspection or certification, say expressly who arranges it, who pays, and who is responsible if a certificate lapses. Societies in particular assume the AMC covers this and frequently find it does not.

On stamp duty.

We do not publish duty figures on this website. The Gujarat Stamp Act, 1958 was amended in 2025 and several articles were restructured; a rate printed on a web page goes stale and costs somebody money. As a Government authorised e-Stamping centre we confirm the duty currently prescribed for your specific document and issue the e-stamp against it, at face value. The notarial fee is separate and capped by law — ₹35 to attest execution, ₹35 to administer an oath or take an affidavit, under Rule 10(1) of the Notaries Rules, 1956. The full fee table →

Drafted here, in Gujarati or English

Drafted by an advocate of 35+ years rather than filled into a downloaded template, e-stamped at a Government authorised centre, and notarised in the same visit. If the parties read Gujarati, the document is drafted in Gujarati — not translated out of an English form, because legal Gujarati has its own settled vocabulary and a literal translation frequently means something looser.

What to bring

  • A list of the equipment to be covered, with model and serial numbers
  • The vendor's proposal or quotation
  • Agreed response and restoration times
  • Whether the contract is to include parts
  • Constitution details for both parties

Common questions

Comprehensive or non-comprehensive — which should I take?

It depends on the age and failure profile of the equipment and on how much budget certainty you want. What matters more is that the contract states clearly which it is, and lists what is excluded either way.

What response time should I ask for?

One matched to what downtime actually costs you. Insist that the contract distinguishes time to attend from time to restore — a fast attendance with an open-ended repair obligation gives you very little.

Our society's AMC is with the lift company. Does it cover the statutory inspection?

Often not. Where equipment is subject to statutory inspection or certification, the contract should say expressly who arranges it, who pays, and who carries the consequence if a certificate lapses. Bring the contract and we will read it with you.
