ComplyKart Services
A franchise agreement that protects the brand you built
Franchising scales your business — but every franchisee is also a risk to your brand. The agreement has to do two jobs: give franchisees a clear, fair operating framework, and give you the control to protect quality. We draft both sides of that balance.

Overview
What this agreement actually covers
A franchise agreement is the contract between a franchisor (brand owner) and franchisee, licensing the brand, systems, and know-how for a territory and term.
Core commercials include the franchise fee, ongoing royalties, marketing fund contributions, and supply or sourcing obligations.
It defines territory rights (exclusive or non-exclusive), outlet standards, operational manuals compliance, and quality control mechanisms.
Brand protection clauses cover trademark licensing, IP usage rules, confidentiality, and non-compete obligations.
Term, renewal conditions, transfer restrictions, and termination grounds complete the framework.
Benefits
Why brands get this drafted through us
Open each benefit to see what it means for you.
Brand control that holds
Quality standards, audit rights, and corrective-action procedures are drafted to be exercisable — not just written.
Commercials structured clearly
Fees, royalties, marketing contributions, and payment timelines are defined without ambiguity, so collections stay smooth.
Territory disputes prevented
Exclusive versus non-exclusive territory, encroachment rules, and online-sales treatment are settled in the agreement.
Clean exits and transfers
Termination grounds, post-termination obligations (de-branding, non-compete), and transfer approval rights protect the network.

If a founder or investor is outside India
Foreign ownership is possible in many sectors, but it adds document authentication, banking and FEMA work. Set the route before funds move.

- Confirm the Indian resident director arrangement
- Map ownership, beneficial ownership and pricing
- Allow time for apostilled or consularised documents
Plan for after setup
- Receive funds through permitted banking channels
- Complete RBI/FEMA reporting and keep the bank evidence
- Coordinate tax and ongoing compliance advice early

No specific franchise statute exists — franchise relationships are governed by contract law, IP law, and competition law. That makes the agreement itself the primary protection.
It depends on your expansion strategy. Exclusivity attracts franchisees but limits your growth; we help you weigh it and draft the chosen model precisely.
Typically 5–7 working days for the first draft, given the agreement's length and detail.
The agreement requires immediate de-branding, return of materials, and cessation of trademark use, backed by post-termination non-compete where appropriate.
Only with your approval under the agreement's transfer clause — you keep control over who operates under your brand.
Yes. We review franchisor drafts from the franchisee's side, flag one-sided clauses, and negotiate fairer terms.
Generally no, but stamp duty applies as per the state schedule. We advise on execution formalities.
