1. Definitions

Learner / Student

“Learner” or “Customer” means the individual who enrolls in or purchases a Program from the Company.

Program / Course

“Program” means an online, self-paced educational offering from the Company, typically comprising approximately 24 hours or less of total content. A Program consists of one or more Courses on related subject matter.

“Course” means a subset of a Program focusing on a specific topic. Each Course is self-paced and contains multiple Modules. A Program may include several Courses.

“Module” means a unit of learning within a Course. Modules usually include a video lesson, reading materials, and may include an optional quiz or exercise related to that topic.

“Assessment” means evaluations to measure learning progress. This includes Course-level quizzes (mandatory quizzes at the end of each Course) and a final assessment (a mandatory comprehensive test at the end of the Program).

“Certificate” means any digital or physical certificate of completion issued by the Company for finishing a Program or an individual Course within a Program.

“Session” means a live or scheduled class or interaction that may be part of a Course or Program. However, this applies only if live sessions are included. For avoidance of doubt, it is clarified that self-paced Programs shall not have live sessions.

“Program Progress” means the portion of content completed by the Learner, as tracked by the Company’s learning platform (e.g. percentage of videos watched, modules completed, or assessments taken).

“Program Fees” or “Course Fee” or “Enrollment Fee” or “Fees” means the total price paid by the Learner for a Program, including any applicable taxes.

“Platform” means the website https://www.evacad.com/ and such mobile apps as may be issued by the Company from time to time.

7. General Provisions

These provisions apply to all refund and cancellation scenarios and outline important legal, procedural, and limitation-related terms.
Non-Transferability

Program enrollment and access are personal and non-transferable. Learners may not transfer, assign, or share access with another individual, whether free or paid. Completion certificates and progress records are issued only in the name of the original learner. Any attempt to transfer access may be treated as a violation of the Company’s terms.

Non-Refundable Charges

Certain charges may not be refundable unless required by law. These include payment gateway fees, bank charges, foreign exchange fees, and taxes (such as GST/VAT) already remitted to the government. Approved refunds are generally limited to the net Program Fees actually received by the Company, subject to third-party payment provider policies.

Abuse of Policy

Refunds are intended for genuine use only. The Company may refuse refunds or deny policy exceptions if a learner is found to be misusing the refund policy, including repeated refund requests, false claims, unfounded chargebacks, or attempts to access content without payment. In serious cases, access to current or future Programs may be restricted.

Force Majeure

The Company shall not be liable for delays or failures caused by events beyond reasonable control, including natural disasters, pandemics, governmental actions, technical outages, or other force majeure events. If such events result in Program cancellation or prolonged disruption, refunds or credits will be handled in accordance with Company-initiated cancellation terms.

Governing Law

This Policy is governed by the laws of India. Any disputes shall be resolved in good faith, and if unresolved, may be referred to arbitration under the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996. Courts at Nagpur, Maharashtra shall have exclusive jurisdiction, without limiting statutory consumer rights under Indian law.

By enrolling in a Program with pManifold EV Academy Private Limited, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agreed to this Refund and Cancellation Policy.
