Monthly & Long-Term Car Rental in GIFT City
Long-term rental is the default at GIFT City rather than the exception. IFSC banking units, fund houses and fintechs post expatriate and senior-management chauffeur cars on multi-year tenures because a daily booking cannot guarantee a cleared vehicle at the gate. Commutec runs named-chauffeur, named-vehicle allocation on IFSC-cleared cars with a 90-minute replacement SLA across GIFT, Gandhinagar and the SG Highway belt.

Indicative contracted-account bands for GIFT City and Gandhinagar. Tolls (including Adalaj), parking, permits, IFSC pass administration and driver night-halt allowances are pass-through at actuals. GST 5% applies on the standard package without input tax credit; 12% with ITC is available on request.
Why long-term wins at GIFT specifically
- A named vehicle stays pass-cleared; a rotating spot cab has to be re-registered each time
- The same chauffeur learns the tower marshals, the podium loop and the guest's routine
- Predictable monthly cost with no per-trip surge on high-demand IFSCA event weeks
- Vehicle branding, in-car standards and grooming SOPs stay consistent across the tenure
- 90-minute replacement SLA with a cleared substitute, not a promise to find one
EV options on the Gandhinagar corridor
Gujarat's EV policy has funded fast charging inside the GIFT parking decks and along the Ahmedabad-Gandhinagar corridor, which makes GIFT one of the easier Indian locations to run electric on long-term contracts.
- Tata Tigor EV, Nexon EV and MG ZS EV deployed on GIFT contracts
- Charging planned around the duty window so range never limits a tower run
- Per-trip and monthly emissions reporting for Scope 3 disclosure
The IFSC pass reality every buyer should price in
GIFT is a gated SEZ. Vehicle supply is not the constraint here — access is. Both the car and the chauffeur need current security clearance, and visitor vehicles must have their registration number filed with GIFT security before arrival.
- Vehicle pass and chauffeur pass are issued separately and expire separately
- A relief chauffeur who is not pre-cleared cannot enter, even in the same car
- SEZ Processing Area access is cleared separately from the Domestic Tariff Area
- Visitor vehicle numbers must be filed with security ahead of the arrival window
- Commutec runs a ring-fenced IFSC-cleared pool with relief chauffeurs pre-cleared and expiry tracked on 90/30/7-day alerts
Frequently asked questions
What does a monthly chauffeur car cost in GIFT City?
Indicative bands on a 10 hours / 250 km monthly package run ₹42,000-52,000 for a sedan, ₹58,000-72,000 for a premium sedan and ₹68,000-85,000 for an Innova Crysta, with executive sedans above that.
Is the same driver and car assigned every day?
Yes. Long-term GIFT contracts run named-chauffeur, named-vehicle allocation, which also keeps the IFSC pass continuously valid rather than re-registered per booking.
What happens if the car breaks down?
A cleared replacement vehicle is provided within 90 minutes across GIFT, Gandhinagar, Infocity and the SG Highway belt. The substitute is drawn from the same IFSC-cleared pool so it can enter the SEZ.
Can we run electric vehicles on a GIFT contract?
Yes. Charging is available inside the GIFT parking decks and along the Gandhinagar corridor, and we report per-trip and monthly emissions for Scope 3 disclosure.
