Limitations of Liability
Kanakkupillai’s liability is limited to the extent of payment received for the engagement. Refunds will exclude charges for completed service events, government fees, and third-party costs. Any additional penalties or costs incurred by the client are the client’s responsibility.
Refund Eligibility
a. Timeframe for Refund Requests: Refund requests must be initiated within 30 days of payment for standard engagements, unless specified otherwise.

c. Non-Refundable Items:
- Payments made to government authorities (e.g., fees, taxes) or third parties on your behalf.
- Services already completed with your approval.
- Situations arising from client-provided errors or delays.
d. Adjustment Option: You may choose to adjust the refundable amount towards a different service, subject to the conditions outlined below.
Opting for a Change of Service

- Adjustment requests must be made within 60 days of the original payment.
- Completed service events and non-refundable amounts will be excluded from the adjustment.
- Any additional fees or charges for the new service will need to be borne by the client.
Process for Refund Requests
To initiate a refund request, please follow these steps:
- Submit a Request: Log into your CRM account or contact us via email to submit your refund request.

- Incomplete Services Adjustment: If any services remain incomplete, the refundable amount may be adjusted against subsequent services.
As part of the process, our Senior Management will reach out to you to discuss your grievances and explore ways to address them effectively. While our priority is to resolve your concerns and complete the service to your satisfaction, you retain the right to proceed with the refund claim if the resolution is not satisfactory.
Factors Beyond Our Control
Kanakkupillai cannot guarantee specific outcomes or timelines due to external factors, such as:
- Delays or rejections from government authorities for legal, procedural, or unforeseen reasons.
- Technical issues or downtime on official platforms (e.g., MCA, Income Tax, FSSAI).
- Delays caused by third-party associates or entities beyond Kanakkupillai's operational control.
- Errors or omissions in the client’s submitted data that require re-submissions or clarifications.
These circumstances do not qualify for refunds as they fall beyond our control. Clients are encouraged to proactively monitor and address any additional requirements or follow-ups.
Force Majeure Events
Kanakkupillai is not responsible for delays or interruptions caused by unforeseen events, including but not limited to:
- Natural disasters such as earthquakes, floods, hurricanes, droughts, landslides, or other catastrophic events.
- Acts of God, epidemics, pandemics, famines, or plagues.
- Regulatory changes, court orders, or other legal restrictions impacting service delivery.
- Civil unrest, war, terrorism, armed conflicts, labour strikes, lockouts, or boycotts.
- Power outages, technological failures, or infrastructural disruptions.
In the event of force majeure, all service commitments will be extended until the resolution of the disruption, and refunds will not be applicable.
