Terms and Conditions

1. Who we are

Minds of Aspirants is the name we teach under. The seller is Minds of Aspirants, a an enterprise registered under the MSMED Act, 2006, with its principal place of business at [TO BE SUPPLIED]. In these terms, “we”, “us” and “the institute” mean that seller, and “you” means the person who holds the account.

The words powered by Cortex Desk beneath our mark name the platform this site is built and run on. Cortex Desk is the software. The teaching, the courses, the prices and this contract are the institute’s, and it is the institute you deal with.

2. Acceptance and scope

You accept these terms when you create an account, and again each time you place an order. If you do not accept them, do not use the site.

Our Privacy Policy and our Refund Policy are part of these terms and are incorporated by reference. Where a course page or a checkout screen states something specific about that item — its access period, how many times a lecture may be watched — that statement governs for that item, and these terms govern everything else.

3. Eligibility

You must be 18 or over to hold an account. This is not a formality. Section 9 of the Digital Personal Data Protection Act 2023 requires verifiable consent from a parent or guardian before a child’s personal data may be processed, and we do not operate a mechanism that could verify it. Rather than pretend to, we do not enrol anyone under 18.

One account per person. An account is personal to you and may not be held jointly, shared, resold or transferred.

4. Your account

Signing in is handled by Clerk, our authentication provider. Your verified email address is your identity on this site: it is what your enrolments, your order history, your highlights and your notes attach to, and it is the address we will reply to.

You are responsible for your own credentials and for everything done through your account. Keep your password and your sign-in device to yourself, and tell us at once if you believe someone else has used your account.

5. What we sell

Two things are sold on this site:

• Online video courses — recorded lectures, reading material, answer-writing drills and the tools around them.
• Online test series — papers you sit in our test engine, with marking, a result and a review.

Each purchase is a licence to access that item for the stated period. It is not a sale of the content, and nothing in it transfers ownership of a lecture, a paper, a marking scheme or a lesson to you.

Mentoring half-hours are not sold separately. They come with an enrolment: booking opens with your first course, and you may hold two upcoming sessions at a time. There is no way to buy a mentoring session on its own, and no course is sold on the promise of a particular mentor.

6. The access period

Access is stated per item on the page where you buy it. Where a period is stated, that is how long the seat lasts. Where no period is stated, the access does not expire.

When you place an order, the access period is written onto the order as it stood that day. That snapshot is the only authority for when your seat ends. If we later change the period on the listing — shorten it, lengthen it, give it a period where it had none — your order keeps what it was sold. This is deliberate: what you bought cannot be edited underneath you.

7. Watching the lectures

Every video lecture may be watched a stated number of times. The default is two; some courses say unlimited, and where they do, they say so. The allowance is per lecture, not per course: using both views of one lecture does not touch any other.

You are told the number before you pay. It is printed on the course page, repeated in the checkout summary under the item, written onto the order when the order is placed, and printed on the receipt. As with the access period, the order’s snapshot is what governs your seat.

A lecture plays on one device at a time. Starting a lecture on a second device ends the session on the first.

If a view is lost to a dropped connection, a device that died or an honest mistake, ask for more views from the lecture itself. The request reaches the institute and staff can grant or reset your views on that lecture. We do not send a message when a request is answered; the answer appears on the lecture when you open it again, and the page says so.

8. What you may and may not do with the material

Your licence is personal, non-transferable and non-commercial. You may watch, read, write and practise for your own preparation, on your own devices.

You may not:

• download, record, screen-capture, re-upload or re-stream a lecture;
• copy, republish, sell or circulate our reading material, question papers, marking schemes or explanations, in any medium, including a study group, a messaging channel or another coaching institute;
• share your sign-in credentials, or let another person use your seat;
• scrape, crawl or bulk-extract anything from the site, or run an automated tool against it.

Lectures play on short-lived signed video links, and playback is limited to one device at a time. Those are technical protection measures. Circumventing them, or helping anyone else to, breaches these terms on its own — whether or not you go on to copy anything — and we may suspend the account for it.

9. Intellectual property

The bare text of the Constitution of India is in the public domain. We claim nothing over it, and you may do with it whatever the law already lets you do.

Everything we put around it is not. The commentary, the lessons, the drills and their marking schemes, the question papers and their explanations, the recordings, the artwork and the design of this site belong to the institute or to the faculty credited on the course, and are protected by the Copyright Act 1957.

10. The AI features, and their limits

Three parts of this site are machine-generated: the AI Mentor at the foot of a lesson, the Constitution desk, and the deep dives on current-affairs articles. Each is marked as machine-generated where it appears.

They can be wrong. A model can state a date, a judgment or an article number with complete confidence and be mistaken. Check anything that matters against the bare text, the original source or your own reading. These features are a study aid; they are not the syllabus, they are not the official notification, and they are not legal advice. We do not warrant their accuracy, and an answer one of them gives is not a statement by the institute.

11. No guarantee of results

We do not promise that you will be selected, or that you will reach any rank, mark or cut-off. Nobody can. Your result depends on your preparation, your writing and the examination, and none of those is ours to control.

We therefore make no claim about selections, ranks, success rates or the number of our students in any list, and no such claim made by any person — a counsellor, an advertisement, a post, a conversation — forms part of this contract or may be relied on. If you are told one, it is not from us.

Where a testimonial appears anywhere on this site, it carries the candidate’s written consent, and it names the course the candidate actually took and how long the candidate was enrolled. We hold these standards because the Central Consumer Protection Authority’s Guidelines for Prevention of Misleading Advertisement in Coaching Sector, 2024, in force from 13 November 2024, require them of a coaching institute, and because a selection claim that a student cannot check is worth nothing to the student.

12. Sitting a test

A test attempt is yours and yours alone. Do not sit a paper for another person, do not let another person sit yours, and do not circulate a paper, a question or an answer key.

Marks are computed by the test engine from the scheme published with the paper. If you believe a question or a key is wrong, write to us and say which question and why. We will look at it, and where a key is wrong we will correct it and re-mark every affected attempt.

Where a test reports a rank, an average or a percentile, it is computed only from the students who sat that test on this platform, and it means nothing beyond them. We may void an attempt obtained in breach of this clause.

13. Mentoring sessions

A mentoring session is a half-hour with a person. You choose a time a mentor has offered and say what you would like to go over; the mentor accepts and gives a meeting link, which appears on the session’s card. We do not send a message when a request is answered — you will see it at /mentoring, and the page says so.

Come on time and cancel from the same page if you cannot. A mentor may decline a request or end a session that is abusive. Do not record a session without the mentor’s consent. Mentoring is academic guidance from an experienced person; it is not a guarantee of anything, and clause 11 applies to it in full.

14. Prices and payment

All prices are in Indian rupees and are the whole price for the item. There is no delivery charge, convenience fee or handling charge on this site, and no charge is added after the amount you agreed to at checkout.

Minds of Aspirants is not registered under GST. No GST is charged, and the price shown is the whole price.

Payment is taken through Razorpay, which accepts cards, UPI, net banking and wallets. Your card, UPI or bank credentials are entered on Razorpay’s own form and never reach us.

A seat is granted only when the payment is confirmed to our server by the payment provider — not when your bank screen says the money left. If a payment succeeds at the bank but the seat has not appeared, write to us with the payment reference and we will finish it by hand. The institute can also record a payment made to it directly, from its own console, and that grants the seat in the same way.

Delivery is instant and digital. Access appears on the account that paid, at /dashboard and /purchases. Nothing is ever shipped.

We send four emails about an order, from noreply@mindsofaspirants.com: a note when the order is placed, a receipt when the payment is confirmed, a note when a payment fails, and a note when a refund is made. Those are the only messages we send about an order. Everything else — a view request answered, a mentoring request accepted — appears on the page when you open it.

15. Coupons

A coupon reduces the price of the order it is applied to. At least ₹1 remains payable unless the coupon covers the whole price.

A coupon is applied at checkout, before you pay, and cannot be added to an order already placed. If you meant to use one, say so before you pay rather than after. A coupon may carry a validity window or a usage limit, and we may withdraw an unused coupon at any time; doing so never affects an order already placed with it.

16. Suspension and termination

We may suspend or close an account that breaches these terms — shared credentials, a copied lecture, a circulated paper, an attempt to work around the video protections, or abuse of a mentor or of staff. Where we can, we will tell you what the breach was.

Closing an account for breach does not by itself entitle you to a refund; a refund request is considered as our Refund Policy describes. You may stop using the site whenever you like, and you may ask us to close your account and delete your records — the Privacy Policy says how.

17. Availability, and other people’s outages

We do not promise uninterrupted service. Parts of this site depend on companies we do not run: Clerk for sign-in, Convex for the database and file storage, Vercel for hosting, Bunny Stream for video delivery, OpenRouter for the AI features, Razorpay for payments and Resend for email. An outage at any of them can stop part of the site while the rest keeps working.

We also take the site down occasionally to change it. If an outage costs you a substantial part of an access period, write to us and we will look at it case by case.

18. What you write stays yours

Your highlights, your video notes and your drill answers are yours. We do not claim ownership of them, we do not sell them, and we do not publish them under your name.

You grant us a non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to store, copy, process and show them back to you for as long as we need it to run the service — which includes sending a drill answer to our AI provider so it can be marked, and letting institute staff read an answer to check that the marking was fair. A refund closes the seat an order granted; your highlights and your notes stay in your account.

19. Limitation of liability

To the extent the law allows, our total liability to you for anything arising out of an item you bought is limited to the amount you actually paid for that item. We are not liable for indirect or consequential loss — a missed examination, a lost attempt, lost marks, lost earnings or lost opportunity.

This clause is expressly without prejudice to your rights under the Consumer Protection Act 2019. Nothing in these terms limits, excludes or postpones a right that Act gives you, and where this clause conflicts with it, that Act prevails.

20. Indemnity

You will indemnify us against any claim, loss or cost arising from your breach of these terms — in particular from sharing your credentials, from copying or republishing our material, or from using the site unlawfully.

21. Changes to these terms

We may change these terms. When we do, the date at the top of this page changes with them, and the new version applies to anything you buy after it is published.

An order already placed keeps the terms it was placed under — including its price, its access period and its view allowance, each of which was written onto the order that day.

22. Grievance redressal

If something has gone wrong, write to our grievance officer and say what happened:

• [TO BE SUPPLIED], [TO BE SUPPLIED]
• Email: brahmanprabha@gmail.com
• Telephone: [TO BE SUPPLIED] ([TO BE SUPPLIED])
• Post: [TO BE SUPPLIED]

We acknowledge a complaint within 48 hours of receiving it, and redress it within one month, as Rule 4(5) of the Consumer Protection (E-Commerce) Rules 2020 requires. Quote your order number if the complaint is about an order; it is on the receipt and on /purchases.

If you are not satisfied with our answer, you may call the National Consumer Helpline on 1915, or file a complaint with the consumer commission online through e-daakhil at edaakhil.nic.in.

23. Governing law and jurisdiction

These terms are governed by the laws of India, and the courts at [TO BE SUPPLIED] have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute arising from them.

This does not take away a right the Consumer Protection Act 2019 gives you to complain to a consumer commission where you live or work.

24. How to reach us

Everything on one page at /contact. By email, brahmanprabha@gmail.com. By telephone, [TO BE SUPPLIED] ([TO BE SUPPLIED]). By post, [TO BE SUPPLIED].

Our Privacy Policy explains what we do with your data, and our Refund Policy explains how a refund request is considered.
