Terms of use

These terms govern your use of sirajebookspublications.com, the free author tools on it, and any manuscript you send us. By using the site you accept them. If you do not, please do not use the site.

1. Who we are

Siraj eBooks Publications ("Siraj", "we", "us") is an ebook publishing house operating from India. The business entity is in the process of incorporation; its corporate identity number, GST registration number and registered office address will be published on this page and in the site footer as soon as they are issued. Until then, written communication to the addresses on this site is contractually sufficient notice to us.

2. The author tools

The royalty calculator and the cost estimator are free to use, run entirely in your browser, and store nothing. They are planning aids built on stated assumptions, not quotations, not tax advice, and not a promise of the rate or price that will apply to your title.

• Royalty figures are computed from the inputs you enter and from the commission defaults published by each platform. Platforms change their terms; the numbers on your statement govern.
• Cost bands are indicative ranges for a first conversation. A written quote follows a manuscript read.
• GST treatment shown in the calculator reflects the classification we apply. Your own tax position is a matter for your adviser.

3. Manuscript submissions

There is no reading fee and no charge to submit. Sending a manuscript does not create a publishing contract, and it does not transfer any rights to us.

• Send a short description first. Use the submission form or email us two or three lines about the book. We will ask for the full manuscript if it fits.
• Keep your own copy. We do not undertake to return files, and we are not an archive.
• Confidentiality. We treat unpublished manuscripts as confidential and do not share them outside the people assessing the book. We do not publish anything without a signed agreement.
• Your warranties. By submitting, you confirm the work is yours, that it does not infringe anyone's copyright, and that any third-party text, image, table or quotation is either licensed or fairly used with attribution.
• Timing. We aim to reply within 10 working days of a complete submission. Volume can stretch that; you are free to submit elsewhere at the same time.

4. Buying an ebook

An ebook purchase grants you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to read that title on your own devices. You do not acquire ownership of the file or of the copyright in it.

• Prices are shown in Indian rupees and include GST at the applicable rate for a qualifying ebook.
• You may not resell, redistribute, upload, or make the file available to others, and you may not remove watermarks or rights notices.
• Delivery, refunds and file replacement are governed by our Refund and Digital Delivery Policy.

5. Acceptable use

Do not use this site to break the law, to scrape or bulk-copy its content, to probe or overload its infrastructure, to upload malicious code, or to impersonate another person. We may block access where use threatens the site or other users.

6. Intellectual property

The site design, text, brand marks, cover artwork and the tools are owned by Siraj or licensed to us, and may not be reproduced commercially without written permission. Copyright in a published title stays with its author; we hold only the licence described in that author's agreement.

7. Purchases on other platforms

When you buy one of our titles on Kindle, Kobo, Google Play Books, Apple Books or through an institution, that sale is also governed by the platform's own terms, payment handling and refund process. We support you on those orders, but we cannot override a platform's procedure.

8. Liability

We work to keep the site accurate and available, but it is provided on an "as is" basis, and we do not warrant uninterrupted access. To the extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect or consequential loss arising from use of the site or reliance on a calculator figure. Nothing in these terms limits your rights under the Consumer Protection Act, 2019, or any other right that cannot lawfully be excluded.

9. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of India. Disputes are subject to the jurisdiction of the courts at the place where our registered office is situated, once that office is established, and until then to the courts at New Delhi.

10. Changes and contact

We may update these terms as the business and the law change. The version and date at the top of this page show which version applies, and material changes will be flagged on the site. Questions about these terms: rights@sirajebookspublications.com.
