“Skootr FinSave offers unique financial model by offering ‘fitout as a service’ that allows clients to enjoy premium office fitout and fixtures without owning them and enjoy tax arbitrage that helps in significant improvement of the financial ratios,” said Rahul Sarin, National Head, Skootr FinSave.

Skootr FinSave will also offer services to corporates who are not Skootr’s client and will expand to cities where Skootr is not present. “The company intends to do business of Rs 200 crore under this vertical in the financial year,” Sarin said.

Skootr FinSave has already got few clients with a total business potential of around Rs 30 crore, he said. The financial model will help corporate clients to focus on their core business growth and Skootr FinSave would invest, build and operate their offices.

He highlighted that leasing office fitout offers lucrative tax benefits as payments are 100 per cent tax-deductible.

“Instead of investing all your resources into the office interior, leasing helps in releasing capital to be spent on other aspects of your business. This lets you invest in business growth and development,” he observed.

Skootr Global was founded in 2016 by Puneet Chandra, Ankit Jain and Anuj Saxena. The company posted a revenue of around Rs 50 crore during the last fiscal year.
