Multi-unit ownership is common in Indian franchising and several White Label ATM brands actively encourage it through discounted second/third-unit fees. Check for "master franchise" or "multi-unit development" terms in the contract — these usually require a minimum 3–5 unit commitment within a defined city/region over 24–36 months.
The lowest-investment option here is Hitachi Money Spot starting from ₹2 L. Remember this is the brand's minimum capex — your actual outlay includes a refundable security deposit, rent deposit (1–6 months), and working capital.
