Who we are
This website (mbanet.org.in), the MBA mobile app and MBA memberships are run by Maratha Welfare Association, a society registered under the applicable laws of India (Reg. No. SATARA/0000008/2024, F-0018040 (STR)), with its registered office at A/p Dhondewadi, Taluka Karad, District Satara, Maharashtra 415104. In these terms, "MBA", "we" and "us" mean the Association, and "you" means anyone using the website or app or holding a membership.
By using the website or app, or by paying for a membership, you agree to these terms.
Eligibility
- You must be at least 18 years old and able to enter into a binding agreement.
- Membership is meant for business owners. Every application is reviewed by the member's gad, which may accept or decline it.
- The information and documents you give us must be true, current and your own.
Membership
- A membership lasts one year from the date it becomes active, and can be renewed for further years.
- A membership is personal to you and cannot be transferred, sold or shared.
- The services included in a membership, and the app's features, may change over time.
Fees and payment
- Membership fees are set by each gad and may differ between gads. Fees for gad meetings are set by the gad hosting the meeting.
- The exact amount is shown in the app before you pay. Fees are in Indian rupees, and no GST is charged.
- Payments are processed by Razorpay Payments Private Limited. We do not see or store your card, UPI or bank login details.
- A membership becomes active only after the payment is successfully received.
- A gad may change its fees. A change applies from your next payment and never to a fee you have already paid.
Refunds and cancellation
Membership and meeting fees are not refundable, and a paid membership cannot be cancelled. Duplicate payments, and money debited for a payment that failed, are refunded. Full details are in our Refund & Cancellation Policy.
Member conduct
You agree not to:
- give false information or upload documents that are not genuine or not yours;
- use other members' details for spam, unsolicited marketing, or any purpose other than genuine business between members;
- copy, scrape or export the member directory;
- harass, mislead or defraud other members;
- use the website or app for anything unlawful, or try to access parts of it you are not allowed to.
Content you post
You are responsible for what you post in the app, such as success stories and enquiries. You confirm that you have the right to post it. We may remove any content that breaks these terms or that we reasonably consider inappropriate.
Suspension
We may suspend or deactivate a membership if these terms are broken, if information given to us turns out to be false, or if a member's conduct harms other members or the Association. Fees are not refunded in that case.
Liability
MBA helps members meet and refer business to one another. Any deal between members is between those members alone. We do not guarantee any business result, and we are not responsible for the quality, payment or outcome of work done between members.
The website and app are provided as they are. We work to keep them available and accurate, but we do not promise they will always be uninterrupted or error-free. To the extent the law allows, our total liability to you is limited to the fees you paid us in the twelve months before the claim.
Name and logo
The MBA name, logo and tagline belong to Maratha Welfare Association. They may not be used without our written permission.
Changes to these terms
We may update these terms. The date at the top of this page shows when they last changed. Continuing to use the website or app after a change means you accept the updated terms.
Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of India. Any dispute is subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts at Satara, Maharashtra.
