Disclaimer

1. Educational Purpose Only

All content, forms, workflows, calculations, and features on TaxSim — whether accessed via the website or the mobile app — are created solely for educational and training purposes. The platform simulates the experience of the real GST portal to help students, tax professionals, and coaching institutes learn GST compliance procedures in a risk-free environment.

The simulated environment is designed to resemble the real GST portal but is not identical to it. Interface elements, workflows, and validation rules may differ from the actual www.gst.gov.in portal.

2. No Real Tax Filings or Transactions

No information entered on this platform is submitted to any government authority. Specifically:

• No real GST registration is created or cancelled through this platform.
• No real invoices are filed with the GSTN.
• No real GSTR-1, GSTR-3B, GSTR-4, GSTR-7, GSTR-8, GSTR-9, GSTR-5A, GSTR-5, CMP-08, or any other return is filed with the GST authorities.
• No real tax payments are made to the government treasury.
• All ARN numbers, GSTINs, PAN numbers, challan numbers, e-way bill numbers, IRN numbers, and reference numbers generated are entirely simulated and are not valid for any official or legal purpose.
• All Electronic Cash Ledger, Credit Ledger, and Liability Register figures are simulated and have no connection to real government ledgers.
• Photographs and documents uploaded during practice registration are stored solely for the purpose of the simulation and are not submitted to any government body.

3. Not Legal, Financial, or Tax Advice

Nothing on this platform — including course content, help text, field guidance, tax calculations, return summaries, guided steps, or any other information — constitutes legal, financial, or professional tax advice.

For actual GST compliance, tax filing, registration, refund claims, or any official GST-related matter, please consult a qualified Chartered Accountant, Tax Consultant, or GST Practitioner and use the official Government portal at www.gst.gov.in.

4. Accuracy of Simulation Content

While Sajan Thesis Works makes reasonable efforts to keep the simulation accurate and up-to-date with current GST law, rules, and procedures, please note:

• GST law is subject to frequent legislative and procedural amendments. The simulation may not reflect the very latest changes at all times.
• Tax rates, form layouts, table numbers, and filing procedures in the simulation are approximations for educational purposes and may differ from the current real-world requirements.
• We do not warrant or represent that the simulation is complete, accurate, current, or error-free.
• Users must independently verify any information or procedures learned on this platform against official government sources before applying them to real-world tax compliance.

5. Mobile Application Disclaimer

The IndIaTaxSim Android mobile application provides a subset of the web platform's features, including GST registration practice, guided course modules, GST tools, and institute–student communication. All data entered in the mobile app is subject to the same educational-only disclaimer as the web platform. The mobile app is not an official government application and is not connected to any government database or system.

The App Lock feature (PIN and biometric) is a local security feature for your device only. It does not provide any connection to government identity systems.

6. Certificate Disclaimer

Completion certificates issued through this platform (by TaxSim or by institutes using the platform) are private training certificates only. They are not recognised by any government body, professional institute (such as ICAI, ICSI, ICMAI), NACIN, or regulatory authority. They do not confer any professional qualification, licence, or official designation.

7. Exam Disclaimer

The GST Portal Proficiency Exam offered on this platform is an internal assessment tool designed to test knowledge of GST filing procedures. It is not an official examination and is not affiliated with or recognised by the GSTN, CBIC, ICAI, NACIN, or any other official body. Passing the exam does not confer any professional status or regulatory approval.

8. Third-Party Links and Services

This platform may reference or link to third-party websites and services including the official GST portal, Razorpay (payments), Supabase (data infrastructure), Expo (mobile framework and push notifications), and Google Play (app distribution). We are not responsible for the content, accuracy, availability, privacy practices, or terms of those external services. References do not imply endorsement or affiliation.

9. Limitation of Liability

Sajan Thesis Works, its proprietors, employees, and associates shall not be liable for any loss, damage, penalty, interest, fine, or adverse consequence of any kind arising from:

• Reliance on any information, calculation, or procedure presented on this platform.
• Errors, inaccuracies, or outdated information in the simulation content.
• Any decision made by the user or a third party based on their experience or learning on this platform.
• Technical errors, downtime, data loss, or service interruptions on either the web or mobile platform.
• Mobile app crashes, device compatibility issues, or loss of locally stored data (e.g., App Lock PIN).

Use of this platform for any purpose other than personal educational training is entirely at the user's own risk.

10. Bugs, Errors & Service Availability

TaxSim is an actively developed educational platform maintained by a small team. Users should be aware of the following:

• Bugs and errors are expected. As with any software, TaxSim may contain bugs, incorrect calculations, broken features, or unexpected behaviour. We work to fix them as quickly as possible, but we cannot guarantee a bug-free experience at all times.
• The platform may go down without notice. Downtime can occur for various reasons including scheduled maintenance, server updates, third-party infrastructure issues (Supabase, Firebase, CDN), high traffic, or unplanned technical failures.
• Features may change or be temporarily unavailable. We may add, modify, or temporarily disable features during updates, migrations, or maintenance windows.
• Data entered during a session may be lost if the platform experiences an interruption. We recommend saving your progress regularly and not relying on in-session data for critical practice.
• We will endeavour to communicate major planned downtime in advance, but are not obligated to do so for emergency or unplanned maintenance.

We apologise for any inconvenience caused by bugs or downtime. If you encounter a bug, please report it via the Feedback section in the app or by emailing info@indiataxsim.com — your reports help us improve.

Platform bugs, errors, feature unavailability, or service downtime — whether planned or unplanned — do not constitute grounds for a refund. Credits purchased are for access to the platform as a whole, not for any specific uninterrupted session or feature. Please read our Refund Policy for full details on what qualifies for a refund.

11. No Dispute on Platform Differences

By using TaxSim, you acknowledge and agree that differences between this simulation and the real GST portal are expected, inherent, and not actionable. You will not raise any dispute, complaint, chargeback, or legal claim against Sajan Thesis Works based on such differences. For specific queries about GST law or procedures, seek advice from a qualified professional.

12. Governing Law
