1. Formation of Contract
A binding contract is formed between the Exhibitor and the Organizer upon receipt of full payment and written confirmation of stall booking. Payment constitutes acceptance of the Organizer’s offer under Section 2(b) of the Indian Contract Act, 1872.
Once payment is made, the contract becomes legally enforceable and cannot be unilaterally revoked by the Exhibitor.
2. Strictly No Refund and No Cancellation Clause
All payments made towards stall booking are strictly non-refundable, non-cancellable, and non-transferable.
This clause constitutes a mutually agreed commercial term forming the basis of contract consideration. The Exhibitor acknowledges that exhibition planning involves advance venue booking, marketing expenditure, infrastructure costs, staffing, and vendor commitments. Accordingly, the booking amount represents confirmed allocation of space and associated event costs.
No refund shall be granted under any circumstance including but not limited to change of business plans, personal emergency, financial difficulty, low sales expectation, travel disruption, medical reasons, or failure to attend.
This clause shall remain valid and enforceable under Sections 73 and 74 of the Indian Contract Act relating to compensation for breach of contract.
3. Event Postponement and Force Majeure
If the event is postponed due to government restrictions, natural disaster, pandemic, political disturbance, venue issues, or any circumstance beyond the reasonable control of the Organizer, the event may be rescheduled.
In such cases, the booking amount shall be adjusted to the rescheduled dates. No refund shall be issued. The Organizer shall not be liable for consequential losses including travel bookings, logistics expenses, or lost business opportunities.
4. Product Compliance and Intellectual Property
Exhibitors warrant that all products displayed are genuine and do not infringe any trademark, copyright, design, or intellectual property rights. Sale or display of counterfeit or replica goods is strictly prohibited.
In case of violation, the Organizer reserves the right to immediately close the stall without refund and may report the matter to appropriate authorities. The Exhibitor shall indemnify the Organizer against any third-party claims arising from intellectual property infringement.
5. Limitation of Liability
The Organizer’s total liability, if any, shall be limited strictly to the amount paid for stall booking. Under no circumstances shall the Organizer be liable for indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages including loss of profit or business reputation.
