As soon as you type an MRP, you get to see how much you will earn via each of our sales channels. You may set the price of book as any price higher than Suggest Selling Price. If there is any loss due to this minimum sale price, that any type of loss will be borne by the author.

So, for which the authors will never make any claim on the Prachi Digital Publication in the future and present.
The author’s attention is again drawn to the fact that if the author’s book is not sold, then the publisher will have no responsibility in it, because the publisher is merely providing services to the author.

Often we notice that relatives and friends of the author buy the book from online online marketplace (Amazon and Flipkart) and send a screenshot of its bill or order to the author for satisfaction. But after some time some people cancel the order. Any claim regarding such screenshots will not be acceptable. Because the publisher accepts the claim of such orders, which were received from online marketplace (Amazon and Flipkart) after verification.

No payment of royalty or claim will be accepted on cancel order.
