Chairman YELLOW EXPRESS LOGISTICS LTD Bangalore - 562123
ABOUT US Yellow Express Logistics Ltd is a public limited company incorporated under the companies Act of 2013 and engaged in the business of taking new Volkswagen vehicles for lease from any person who will be the registered owner of the vehicle and attaching the same to the major online cab operators in India along with subleasing vehicles to one of its associate entities which is engaged in the marketing and promotion of digital activities. MISSION As a public limited company, Yellow Express Logistics has directly and indirectly engaged in the promotion of Online cabs by the involvement of information technology to the maximum, which makes a new look for our developing country by the fast replacement of three wheelers into the most modern cabs which competes with the world standards. Moreover it creates opportunities that nurture talent and enable to utilize their potential to ensure accessibility of key services through an electronic medium of global standards by inspiring technology to convey the digital needs of a common man. A creative idea conceptualized by Yellow Express Logistics team recognizes the challenges to be addressed to leverage upon the expertise and resources for this noble cause. We have set up plans in a systematic order and working towards accomplishing our planned objectives in anticipated time with a focus to surface as resonating backing to the concept of online cabs and small city ventures across the nation as a centre of excellence. It is our endeavor to reach out to the society at the grass root level and spreading to all classes of people without any discrimination of rich or poor, literate or illiterate, backward class or forward class which is socially marginalized without Online activities but the cheap internet available to the common man of India will fulfill their dream of enjoying the luxury of Online cabs which is accessed from our finger tips. VISION Our humble aim is to enable the common man of India to enjoy the dream facilities of traveling in an online cab which is more safer, healthier and comfortable, with the minimum of charges than a three wheeler. This is like a dream come true for the common man and the less than average people of India where they can reach their destinations much faster than a three wheeler in the healthiest and coziest manner possible amidst the most polluted atmosphere around. MOST AFFORDABLE INTERNET FACILITY. The most important aspect needed for promoting Online cabs is the wide availability of internet which is available now in every nook and corner of our country. It has brought a real sense to this dream project of promoting Online cabs and a reason for us to start this venture because even the richest and powerful country in the world is not able to provide such an affordable internet facility which is prevailing in India. This will enable the common man of India to use the Online cab facilities without any hindrance instead of depending on the most polluted and dangerous three wheelers. It is surveyed that a three wheeler is involved in the forty percent accidents that take place in India. This is made possible mainly because of the affordable internet facility available to the average and even to the less than average citizens of this country. CAR LEASING PROJECT Yellow Express Logistics will be marketing and promoting the car leasing project where anyone can purchase a Volkswagen car in their own name and give the same to Yellow Express Logistics Ltd for a lease period of four years to get a five figure monthly income for the entire loan and lease period of 4 years, after all expenses of driver, diesel, repairs, accidental expenses, any other unexpected or expected expenses and even the monthly EMI of the vehicle. The company will be responsible for appointing drivers and meeting all expenses out of the unexpected incidents and accidents which occur during the lease period of four years and the latter will also be responsible to buy back the vehicle after the lease period of four years at a market price which will not be less than Rs.2.50 lakhs. The leasing project of yellow Express will be subject to the terms and conditions of a lease agreement entered in between the registered owner of the vehicle who is the investor and the company. 3
OWN AND EARN Leasing project of Yellow Express Logistics is an excellent opportunity for investing in a Volkswagen car where the investor enjoys a consistent monthly income which will be much more than the regular bank investments. Its because the person who is buying a car is not spending the full price of the vehicle because the vehicle is purchased by the investor through finance from the leading financial institutions in the country. More than ninety percent of the vehicles sold in India is through finance. So his investment will be almost 30 % of the vehicle only which will be paid as a interest free refundable security deposit and will be paid back after the lease period of four years. The balance amount will be arranged as loan by the company which makes a big relief for the investor to avoid the hurdles of getting a loan. The EMI of the vehicle loan arranged by the company will also be paid by Yellow Express. So here automatically the investment to buy a vehicle will be the refundable security deposit only. Now its the time to own and earn by becoming the registered owner of an Online cab without knowing any of the hurdles involved in the process of purchasing and operating an online cab which earns more than your expectations. BEST INVESTMENT If we invest Rs.2.50 lakhs in a bank the maximum returns will not be more than Rs. 1700 but in the case of Online cab investment, if you invest the same to purchase a online cab, you are getting more than Rs. 10 000 in a month, which is much more than the other investments. Moreover after demonetization of the central government the real estate market also has become unpredictable and its too risky now to purchase a property without proper accounted bank transactions for both the buyer and the seller. LUXURY OF REGISTERED OWNER Although you are the registered owner of the vehicle, that does not make you liable for the accidents or any unexpected or expected incidents which come across during the process of operating an Online cab, after you enter into a lease agreement between the investor and the company where the registered owner of the vehicle or the investor is not using the vehicle even for an hour. This makes him free from the worries of being involved or liable in any legal matters which arises out of the vehicle. The investor of Online cabs will be the registered owner of the vehicle without any joint ownerships from anyone and will enter into a lease agreement for a period of four years with Yellow Express Logistics Ltd where he will also be free from the hurdles of running a cab like appointing drivers, service, maintenance, diesel, daily collections, dealing in accident cases, settling unexpected incidents, depreciation of the vehicle, parking of the vehicles, affects normal job or business, problems due to lack of experience in this field and so on. In Yellow Express logistics, by being the registered owner of the vehicle and by leasing the same, you will be getting a regular monthly income by watching the vehicle live on your mobile and there by resembles the same as a normal bank investment. REFUNDABLE SECURITY DEPOSIT The most attractive part of Yellow Express leasing project is that the amount paid by the investor as refundable security deposit will be refunded after the lease period of four years which will be Rs.50 000 more for a combo customer. After the successful completion of the lease period the investor who is the registered owner of the vehicle has to transfer the ownership of the vehicle to the company also. The interest free security ideposit is taken by the company because the latter will be the guarantor of loan taken for the leased vehicle but the investor will be free from making any further payments other than the interest free refundable security deposit to own the vehicle in his name and also in a position to start getting the regular income from the 30th day of paying the refundable security deposit. COMBO CUSTOMER An investor can become a combo customer by booking two vehicles at a time which can be in his own name or by any person referred by him. In this case the refundable security deposit will be the same but an extra amount of Rs.50 000 Zwill be given for each vehicle after the lease period of four years. The booking amount can also be given as two separate 5
payments from different customers but at the same time. Moreover a combo customer has to introduce one person only within a period of one year to get the yearly insurance free offer, whch will be two persons in the case of a normal customer. YELLOW FINANCE & EARNINGS Yellow Finance and Earnings will be arranging finance to the customers and in some cases providing finance to the latter, who has purchased Special Edition Yellow Express vehicles of Volkswagen, for giving the same as lease according to the terms and conditions of a lease agreement between Yellow Express Logistics Ltd and the customer who is the investor. So the registered owner of the vehicle will be free from running after loan for his vehicle from bank to bank, where the finance company will be liable to arrange the loan if proper documents are given by the registered owner of the vehicle. LOANS ARRANGED BY YELLOW EXPRESS All the customers who have paid the interest free refundable security deposit will be free from the hurdles of running after several banks to get loans for the invested vehicles. In this case the responsibility of arranging loans will be undertaken by the company and the investor will also be free from paying the processing fees for loans and also free from paying the entire maintenance cost for the lease period of four years. Normally the bank managers will be hesitant to give a loan for the taxi segment because of the previous defaults in repayment by most of the owner cum drivers who diverts their collections and income for other priorities. Moreover an accident may affect his monthly payments, a small health problem may affect his trips, temptation to use the vehicle for personal use will affect his trips and above all his low profile nature will make him run away from the burden of paying the monthly installments to the bank. So most of the banks have made a decision to stop giving vehicle loans for taxi segment out of their past years experience. But with Yellow Express as guarantor your loans will be released without any hurdles. YELLOW EXPRESS AS GUARANTOR In the case of investors who have paid the interest free refundable security deposit, the company will be responsible for arranging loans for the invested vehicles and will also be a guarantor for the loans taken in the name of the customer because he is the registered owner of the vehicle. Loans can be taken in the name of the registered owner only. So the company by becoming the guarantor of the loan makes the investor more confident and happy that the loans will be repayed by the company by standing as guarantor. Moreover the leased vehicle is also in the name of the investor and the company being the guarantor for loans of the leased vehicle, the investor enjoys a risk free investment like a bank deposit. YELLOW EXPRESS CONCEPT More than a lakh of vehicles are attached to the major Online cab operators in Bangalore and in fact more than 25 lakhs in India without the involvement of Yellow Express. So the concept of yellow Express is not a new one but the only difference is that the investor or the owner of the Online cabs already attached to the major online companies will be running behind the hurdles of driver diesel repairs, accidents, daily collections, service of the vehicle, depreciation of the vehicle and so on. But here in Yellow Express the investor of a vehicle will be free from all the above burdens of running a taxi process because the vehicles are not directly attached by the investor to the major Online cab operators but instead yellow Express will be attaching directly to these cab companies by appointing drivers and taking the responsibility of the entire process. This makes the investor free from all the hurdles and a fixed monthly payment will also be given to the investor of a cab all throughout the lease period of four years, irrespective of the daily collections or income earned by the company. This will be equal to a bank investment as far as the registered owner or the investor of the vehicle is concerned. NO PROCESSING FEES FOR LOANS In the case of investors who have paid the interest free refundable security deposit they will be free from paying any processing fees charged for arranging loans from the leading financial institutions in India. Normally there will be two percentage charged with additional GST which changes from bank to bank but here as a down payment customer, the latter will be free from paying processing fees for loans. Moreover Yellow Express Logistics will be the guarantor of these loans also. More than the processing fees amount the investor will be free from the hurdles of going to bank frequently as in normal cases where loans are released in the most difficult manner, specially for the common man. Here the investor need not be worried or concerned about the interest for the loans also, because the responsibility of 7
repayment is vested with the company. But whatever may be situation the loans will be taken in the lowest possible rate which will otherwise be a burden to the company who is repaying the loan. FREE FROM MAINTENANCE COST. Normally the biggest expense in the operations of a taxi cab will be the service and maintenance cost which in normal cases will be not less than Rs.10 000/- for a minimum of 15 000 kilometers which means for every two months the customer has to spend this amount as service cost for maintaining the vehicle in the most perfect condition for running a cab. Normally a taxi cab which operates for two shifts, runs a minimum of 7500 kilometers in a month which means for the lease period of four years the vehicle will run at a minimum of 2 lakh kilometers and even more. So there will be a minimum cost of Rs.2 lakh as maintenance cost for the entire lease period. But here in Yellow Express the investor will be free from paying the maintenance cost for the entire lease period of four years. YELLOW EXPRESS EDITION The normal vehicle of Volkswagen is customized according to the latest standards of Online cab features like GPS system with software backup for several features apart from tracking the vehicle, Live camera, Extra seat covers, Head rest monitors, Swiping machine, speed governor and the extra special color which really makes the difference by the most attractive look and also for the common man to identify the vehicles much easier, even from a considerable distance. FREEDOM OF REGISTERED OWNER The investor who is the registered owner of the vehicle has the freedom to cancel the lease agreement anytime and take back the vehicle after closing the finance of the vehicle and getting a no objection certificate from the finance company that the finance for the particular vehicle is closed. Some of the investors may feel that they can get more income from sources like self driven cars and also by running a taxi process with the help of an experienced hand as manager because the amount which we give is constant and there will not be any change till the lease period is over. The registered owner of the vehicle has to give a one month notice for the same and all the formalities will be completed within this period of 30 days. But in any situations the company will not cancel the lease agreement and the refundable securiy deposit will be refunded to the customer after completing the lease period of four years only. The vehicles once taken out in between will not be taken back again by the company. BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT OFFICER - BDO In addition to the regular monthly income the registered owner of the vehicle will also have the opportunity to promote and market the leasing project among his friends, relatives, neighbors, business friends, social media friends and so on in assistance with the concerned Business promoters under a Team leader who had approached you for investing into this project. This will be a part time job without affecting your normal work or business and this additional income will be much more than your invested returns and in fact much more than your normal returns from other sources. So its always advisable for the investor to participate in the process of engaging with us in a part time work because the strength of the project depends on the most valuable words and deeds of any person who is enjoying a good regular income from us. Only a customer can become a business development officer. A NEW LOOK TO OUR DEVELOPING INDIA The Online cab project of Yellow Express Logistics Ltd will definitely give a new look to our fast developing country because unlike other online cab operators which are concentrating on any type of car with any color, our company is customizing the particular vehicle to a special edition of Yellow Express with immaculate features which promotes online cab services and moreover a particular type of model with most attracted color for all the vehicles which makes it easy to identify the vehicles even from a long distance. This will give a new look because our Indian roads are filled with crores of three wheelers and lakhs of Online cabs. If our dream project is able to replace at least twenty percent of this market, then surely our yellow color cars will be like yellow butterflies everywhere. Our yellow color cab is really different from other yellow colors which you have seen in the market and that makes the difference. The common man of India will be able to identify our cab much easier and access the same without much difficulty. 9
All set to rule the Indian roads.... 11 10
THREE WHEELERS Nowadays its pathetic to see the worse condition of the crores of three wheelers in India where they charge more than the new generation online cabs in India. So naturally the common man of India has recognized the fact that the online cab is less expensive than a three wheeler and the only problem our citizens are facing is the availability of online cabs and we are almost there to find a solution for the same. Cabs are less expensive because they do not have return trips which saves time, diesel and waiting again for turn to get a trip. Cabs park where they end a trip and a new trip starts from that point. PUBLIC LIMITED COMPANY Yellow Express Logistics Ltd is a public limited company where an investor with more than 5 Combo bookings will become the share holder of the company and will also be given a preference share certificate mentioning the face value of the share with the buy back amount after a period of four years. Its always better for the common man to deal with a public company rather than a private limited company. In addition to that the investors will be getting yearly dividend also for a period of 4 years. As the share certificate given to the investor is a preference share, the company will be liable to purchase back the shares at the end of the period mentioned in the share certificate which will be four years. ONLINE CABS AND THREE WHEELER Normally the autos can run a maximum of 12 hours a day but an Online cab can run easily for 24 hours with the operation of 2 shift drivers. There is a limitation for the 3 wheeler to go beyond a certain speed and this really affects the timings to reach destinations, which is much more faster in the case of an Online cab. The Online cab drivers are trained to find any location through Google map which will be very helpful for the new customers who have no idea about the location to reach their destinations without much difficulty. Four members can easily travel in a Online cab with comfortable sitting space and even a push back seat in front. You can never dream of making your payment through card in a 3 wheeler rather than quarreling with him to get the balance but in an Online cab you can make the smallest payment by digital methods without cash. It's really suffocating to travel in an auto because the smoke pipe of buses and other heavy vehicles are in the same angle of the openings in an auto but an air conditioned Online cab makes us free from all these disasters. All the activities of the driver and the vehicle will be closely monitored throughout the day and night which will ensure good service and safety for the customers. As a part of the Online cab project, the drivers will be trained to promote many digital services which increase the profit of the drivers to the maximum. The customers can enjoy good music than at home because the music system in four wheelers are more effective than anywhere else and it's a dream feel to travel with sweet music in the middle of tensions during the day. OUTDOOR ACTIVITY STARTS WITH ONLINE CABS One of the primary Online activity which comes to our mind when you think of going out of our house or office, it will be Online cabs because it comes in front of you, where ever you are and to be more happier, its less expensive than traveling in a three wheeler and that too with all the dream facilities. Moreover Online cab is less polluted, more healthy, less sound, less suffocation, AC atmosphere, professional behaviour of driver, short distance along with long distance also, same minimum charges, lesser traveling charges, help of google map to find location, good music system, less accidents than auto, people traveling together will be lesser than bus charge, booking can be made from inside our house, card or cash payment and the advantages are numerous if we compare a three wheeler with an online cab. DRIVERS USING APP WHILE DRIVING When a customer makes a pick up request a driver is notified on the mobile app and is provided with the customer's location. The driver has approximately few seconds to tap the phone to accept the request. Earlier people used to travel like waving the arm in the air and by standing for the autos but that was the former century tactic and now its an app doing all the work. In Yellow Express we have the Cab Management System with stunning features to make a ride easier and faster than before all across the globe. People are using these services at more rapid pace than ever before. We all know about Uber taxi app which is one of the top taxi app companies that has become very popular app in several countries. 11
