Contribution Terms and Conditions

Last updated: 17 October 2026

These Contribution Terms and Conditions govern financial contributions made to AgriTimes.co.in, operated by Neur Press & Digital LLP.

AgriTimes welcomes support from individuals and organizations in India and abroad who wish to help sustain independent agriculture journalism, editorial operations and access to agriculture-related news and information.

By making a contribution, you agree to these terms.

1. Purpose of Contributions

Contributions are intended to support the editorial operations and related activities of AgriTimes. They help us work towards providing relevant agriculture news, information and reporting to farmers, agribusinesses, policymakers and other readers.

Contributions do not purchase editorial influence, favourable coverage, advertising placement or any other benefit unless separately agreed in a written commercial arrangement.

2. Eligibility

Individuals making contributions must be at least 18 years old. Organizations and other legal entities may contribute through an authorized representative, subject to applicable law and payment-provider requirements.

AgriTimes may request additional information to verify a contributor's identity, eligibility or the lawful source of funds.

3. How Contributions Are Made

Contributions may be made through the designated support page on AgriTimes.co.in while that facility is available.

Payments are subject to the terms of the relevant payment provider and any applicable transaction requirements. AgriTimes may maintain appropriate financial and transaction records for accounting, compliance and audit purposes.

A contribution will be treated as received once the payment has been successfully processed and confirmed, subject to applicable payment-provider procedures.

4. Nature of Contributions

Unless otherwise agreed in writing or required by applicable law, contributions are voluntary gifts intended to support AgriTimes' editorial operations.

Contributors do not receive ownership rights, editorial control or an entitlement to direct the use of editorial resources by making a contribution.

Contributions should not be assumed to qualify as charitable donations or to be eligible for tax deductions, tax relief or gift-aid benefits in India or elsewhere. Contributors should obtain independent tax advice regarding their individual circumstances.

5. Refusal and Return of Contributions

AgriTimes reserves the right to refuse or return a contribution where reasonably considered necessary, including where:

• The source of funds cannot be satisfactorily verified.

• Accepting the contribution may violate applicable law or payment-provider requirements.

• The contribution may compromise, or reasonably appear to compromise, AgriTimes' editorial independence.

• There is a reasonable concern about fraud, unlawful activity or reputational harm.

Where a contribution is refused or returned, any repayment will ordinarily be made to the original payment source, subject to applicable payment-provider procedures and legal requirements.

6. Cancellation and Refund Policy

Contributors should contact AgriTimes promptly if they believe a payment was made in error, duplicated or processed without authorization.

AgriTimes will review refund requests in accordance with these terms, applicable law and the relevant payment provider's procedures. Where a refund is approved or legally required, the amount will ordinarily be returned through the original payment method.

Except where a refund is approved by AgriTimes or required by applicable law, completed contributions are not refundable. AgriTimes will aim to acknowledge cancellation or refund enquiries within 48 hours; this is an acknowledgement target, not a guarantee that a refund will be completed within that period.

7. Transparency and Verification

AgriTimes may request a contributor's name, contact details and other information reasonably necessary to verify the source, legitimacy or purpose of a contribution.

If a contributor does not provide information reasonably required for verification or legal compliance, AgriTimes may decline or return the contribution, subject to applicable law.

AgriTimes will not publicly disclose a contributor's identity or contribution amount as a routine practice without an appropriate lawful basis, such as the contributor's consent or a legal obligation. Any disclosure will be handled in accordance with applicable privacy and data-protection requirements.

8. Confidentiality and Publicity

Contributors may not imply that their contribution constitutes an endorsement by AgriTimes or gives them editorial influence.

A contributor wishing to use AgriTimes' name, logo or contribution relationship in promotional materials must obtain prior written permission. Any approved publicity must comply with the applicable brand, editorial and legal requirements.

9. Editorial Independence

AgriTimes retains sole responsibility for its editorial decisions, subject to applicable law and its editorial standards.

Contributions do not guarantee publication, favourable reporting, product promotion, access to journalists or any specific editorial outcome. Advertising, sponsored content and other commercial services, if offered, are governed by separate terms.

10. Limitation of Liability

To the extent permitted by applicable law, AgriTimes will not be liable for indirect or consequential losses arising from a contribution or an interruption to the contribution facility.

Nothing in these terms excludes or limits liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited, or any other rights or remedies available to a contributor under applicable law.

11. Changes to These Terms

AgriTimes may revise these terms when necessary to reflect operational changes, payment arrangements or applicable legal requirements. Updated terms will be published on this page with a revised date.

The terms applicable to a particular contribution will be determined in accordance with applicable law and any relevant payment or transaction records.

12. Governing Law and Jurisdiction

These terms are governed by the laws of India. Subject to applicable law, disputes will be subject to the jurisdiction of the competent courts in Mumbai, Maharashtra.

Nothing in this clause restricts any mandatory rights or remedies available under applicable law.
