1. Scope of Service Offerings

If a Service Offering has been agreed upon by Basler India, Basler India´s written confirmation of the Order shall be de-cisive for the scope of the Service Offering. For the avoid-ance of doubt, a specific result as an outcome of the per-formance of Service Offering shall generally not be owed, unless the Parties expressly agree otherwise. Any changes must be expressly agreed in writing. The charges for pro-vision of service offerings would be exclusive of the appli-cable GST. The price for the Service Offerings shall also be adjusted accordingly in the event of mutually agreed changes.

2. Scope of work performances

Where performance of work is agreed between the parties, the scope, nature, and extent of such work shall be deter-mined exclusively by the written order confirmation issued by Basler India. Basler India shall be obligated to deliver only the specific result expressly agreed in writing within the scope of the commissioned work and no other result or outcome shall be implied. Any protective devices, ancil-lary equipment, or accessories shall be supplied and/or in-stalled only if expressly specified and agreed in writing in the Order confirmation or the underlying contract. Any changes for the work performances must be expressly agreed in writing. The said charges for work performances would be exclusive of the applicable GST.

3. Rights and obligations of the parties

Basler India shall perform Service Offerings and work per-formances professionally using its own qualified personnel or shall engage qualified third-party representatives for this purpose.

At Basler India´s discretion and after consultation with the Customer, the Service Offerings and work performances shall be performed either at Basler India´s premises or at the Customer´s site, as agreed in writing between the Par-ties. For the performance at the Customer´s site, the Cus-tomer undertakes to grant Basler India´s personnel/ au-thorised representatives access to their premises and to provide a suitable facility for the performance of the Ser-vice Offerings or work performances. The Customer shall inform in advance to Basler India regarding any special regulations are to be adhered to perform the Services at the Customer’s Premises.

If the Customer fails to provide the necessary collaborative actions, any additional costs and other expenses incurred, along with applicable taxes, shall be borne by the Cus-tomer.

4. Period of completion for Service Offerings

A bindingly agreed period of completion shall be extended reasonably.

The Customer may only demand that the work performance be redone if and to the extent that this is reasonable for Basler India, taking into account its other contractual obligations.
