The contents of this site including our videos, and all Social media platforms including Facebook, Instagram, Telegram and Twitter in general may contain certain copyrighted works that were not specifically authorized by the copyrighted holder but which we believe in good faith are protected by the statute and the fair use and criticism doctrine.

Our posts and reviews which criticize an original work essentially serve a social utility, and thus are protected under the fair use principle of copyright law.

SUBSCRIPTION 

Your support is treated as voluntary subscription. Please note that all forms of subscriptions to site are considered token of thanks for the existing content we have already produced and published in good faith for consumption of subscribers. Something similar to post-paid where the service has been already used.

As a policy, we have not hidden our content behind any paywalls. On contrary, we urge you to pay ONLY after you are fully satisfied with our content and efforts that go behind researching and producing such content. Our business model depends on your payments to our existing content.

Please also note that we are not seeking donations. We are registered business entity. All voluntary subscriptions made to us or to any of our affiliates/ associates whose payment options we may provide are considered as revenues and subject to taxes as per prevailing laws. We cannot provide any tax exemptions applicable to donations because we are not seeking donations.

All global payment through online payment gateway go to our affiliate that treats the income as per laws of the country under which it operates. It be noted that this is also a business income and not treated as donation.

All payments made through Razorpay payment gateway are exclusively for Media & Entertainment category.

Our unique business model is a humble attempt to bring alternate unique content for which there is no ready market in industry because of its different nature. Hence we depend on business revenues from your voluntary subscriptions.

FAQs about one-time and recurring payments for voluntary subscriptions:

Q. Will I get tax exemptions or 80G certificate?

A. As detailed above, we are a private entity and not an NGO like Trust, Section 8 company or Society. We pay taxes on income we get from your voluntary subscriptions. In spirit of our ethical values, we have not hidden our content behind any paywall. Instead, with assumption that each customer is the best person to judge the true value of our content, we have made it openly accessible. Whatever accrues from such subscription is treated as revenue and we pay GST as per government norms on that. Hence there is no concept of 80G certificate here. We are a for-profit business entity who work as per regulatory norms applicable to us.

Q. Will I get invoices?

A. We issue GST invoices against all the payments received by us. For persons making payments to us via payment gateways, we get your email ID on record and send you the invoices as soon as possible. But for persons making payment directly in our Bank account via NEFT/ RTGS/ UPI etc, we do not have your email ID, so we are unable to send those invoices on our own. Therefore we request such persons desirous of obtaining a tax invoice to separately intimate us your email ID along with transaction receipt, at ritvijam[DOT]bharat[AT]gmail[DOT]com (Replace [AT] with @ and [DOT] with .) and we shall send the invoices to you.

Do note that when you make payment through payment gateway, they send you a payment receipt as soon as a successful payment is made. Same is recorded at our end as well. This is separate from the GST invoice we detailed earlier.

Q. What is your refunds policy?

A. No. Since we are asking you to pay for only the content already consumed, so there are no refunds or cancellations applicable on one-time and recurripayments.

Q. Would you return my payment if I no longer like or support or agree with you?

A. We’re sorry to hear that. We encourage you to share your differences with us via email at ritvijam[DOT]bharat[AT]gmail[DOT]com (Replace [AT] with @ and [DOT] with .) . However, we will not be able to return your earlier voluntary subscription(s) made by you for and after consuming content already created by us at the time you made those voluntary subscription(s) . We urge you to pay ONLY after you are fully satisfied with our content and efforts that go behind researching and producing such content.

Q. I want to make a voluntary subscription via direct bank transfer/ NEFT/ IMPS. What are your bank account details?

A. Account Name : Ritvijam Current Account Number : 034305004897 Bank Name : ICICI IFSC : ICIC0000343 Swift Code : ICICINBBCTS Purpose Code : P0806 (Other information services – Subscription to newspapers, periodicals, etc)
