2W, 4W, inverter, e-rickshaw batteries.

Who the channel partners are

Batteries move from the manufacturer to distributors and then to battery dealers, auto-electricians, inverter and UPS dealers and e-rickshaw workshops. The person who tests the old battery and fits the new one, usually an auto-electrician or the dealer's own technician, decides the brand in most replacement sales. Scrap collectors and the dealer's old-battery exchange counter are part of the same chain, because almost every sale involves a used battery coming back.

Schemes that are typical

• Dealer quantity slabs. monthly or seasonal targets by segment (two-wheeler, four-wheeler, inverter, e-rickshaw), usually peaking before summer and monsoon.
• Installer rewards. a fixed amount for each battery fitted, proved by scanning the serial number.
• Warranty registration incentive. a small reward to the dealer or technician for registering the customer at the time of sale.
• Old-battery return schemes. an exchange value or bonus when the used battery is returned through the dealer.

What Unotag does here

Unotag ties each of these to the battery's serial number. One scan at fitment registers the warranty, records which dealer and installer handled the unit, and credits the installer's reward. Dealer slabs are calculated daily from billing data so the dealer sees the gap to the next slab, and returned batteries are logged against the original serial so buyback schemes are paid on evidence.
