Effective: 01 July 2026  ·  Last updated: 22 July 2026

This Agreement is entered into between RBUY Marketing Private Limited (operating as ROOPAY SHOPPE™, “the Platform”) and you (“the Manufacturer”). By activating the Manufacturer role (RMC ID), you confirm that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by all terms below.

1. Eligibility & Role

This Agreement applies exclusively to registered manufacturing entities or individuals holding a valid Manufacturer (RMCxxxxxx) role on ROOPAY SHOPPE™.
You must be a legally registered manufacturing business with a valid factory licence, GST registration, and PAN. Sole proprietors engaged in manufacturing are eligible provided they hold the required licences for their product category.
The Manufacturer role grants you API access to the Platform for bulk inventory synchronisation, order management integration, and automated billing.
Your Manufacturer role remains active for 365 days from activation and must be renewed annually with updated KYC documents.
The RMC role is distinct from the Seller (RSC) role. As a Manufacturer, you may sell both retail (B2C) and wholesale (B2B) through the Platform.

2. KYC Requirements

Full KYC verification is mandatory before listing any product or accessing the Platform API. Required documents:

FACTORYValid Factory Registration Certificate / Manufacturing Licence issued by the competent authority for your product category (e.g. FSSAI for food, BIS for electronics, Drug Licence for pharmaceuticals).
GSTValid GST Registration Certificate (GSTIN) — mandatory for all Manufacturers.
PANPermanent Account Number (PAN) of the business entity. Manufacturers without PAN are subject to higher TDS rates.
BANKBank account number and IFSC code for settlement — must be in the registered business name.
BUSINESSCertificate of Incorporation (for companies) or Partnership deed / Proprietorship declaration (for other entity types).

All submitted documents are encrypted using AES-256 and stored on secure private cloud storage. Submission of forged or expired documents is a criminal offence and will result in immediate termination, forfeiture of wallet balance, and reporting to law enforcement.

3. Product Listing Rules

You may only list products that you manufacture, hold a valid licence to manufacture, and are legally permitted to sell in India.
All products must comply with the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS), FSSAI, Drug & Cosmetic Act, Weights & Measures Act, and any other sector-specific regulations applicable to your product category.
Product listings must include: accurate product name, description, specifications, MRP, HSN code, unit of measurement, country of origin (“Made in India” where applicable), batch number (for regulated products), and expiry date (for perishables and pharmaceuticals).
All product imagery must be original photographs of your own manufactured goods. Misleading images or use of third-party product images is prohibited.
Stock levels must be maintained accurately. Bulk orders confirmed but not fulfilled due to inaccurate stock represent a material breach of this Agreement.
The Platform reserves the right to require product samples, certifications, or third-party test reports before approving listings in regulated categories (food, electronics, pharmaceuticals, toys, etc.).

4. Platform Service Charge — 5%

The Platform levies a 5% service charge on you (the Manufacturer) for every successfully completed order. This is deducted from your settlement. The split:

1%To your own BW Available + BW Spendings (equal value to both).
1%To your assigned Marketing Executive (ME) Wallet + ME BW Spendings.
3%To the Admin Share Wallet (Platform revenue pool for BW share distribution).

The 5% charge applies on the net order value. Slab: Rs. 1–95 = Rs. 5; Rs. 96–190 = Rs. 10; every Rs. 95 increase adds Rs. 5.

The 5% charge is not levied on internal top-ups, wallet transfers, or ME recharges. It applies only on product/service transaction settlements.

5. Order Fulfilment Obligations

3 DAYSYou must confirm or reject an order within 3 days (72 hours) of placement. For bulk/B2B orders, custom timelines may be negotiated at the time of listing but must be clearly disclosed to buyers. Failure to respond to standard orders results in automatic cancellation and full refund to the buyer.
48 HRSAfter confirming a standard retail order, dispatch must occur within 48 hours. Custom-manufactured or made-to-order items may have a disclosed lead time at listing.
QUALITYProducts must match the listed specification exactly. As a manufacturer, you bear full product liability. Substandard, defective, or mislabelled goods must be recalled and replaced at your cost.
25 HRSPayment is released to your Manufacturer Wallet 25 hours after delivery confirmation, provided no cancellation or return request has been raised by the buyer.
APIManufacturers with API access must keep inventory, pricing, and order status in sync. Inaccuracies arising from API integration errors are your responsibility.

6. Shipping & Delivery

COSTShipping cost is borne entirely by the Manufacturer. Actual courier cost is deducted from your settlement. You are responsible for handing over parcels in correct, safely packaged condition to the assigned courier/delivery partner.
PARTNERSYou may use Platform-integrated courier services (Shiprocket) or assign a Roopay Delivery Partner (DVL). For bulk B2B shipments, you may use your own logistics provider provided you update tracking details on the Platform within 24 hours of dispatch.
CODCOD orders use a Platform-generated secure QR for payment collection. Do not accept cash outside this system.

8. API Access & Integration

The Manufacturer (RMC) role includes API access for inventory synchronisation, bulk order management, and automated invoicing. API credentials are issued after KYC verification and role approval.
API access is non-transferable and must not be shared with third parties. Misuse of API credentials will result in immediate revocation and account suspension.
You are responsible for securing your API credentials. The Platform is not liable for unauthorised use arising from your credential mishandling.
The Platform reserves the right to throttle, limit, or revoke API access in the event of abuse, excessive load, or policy violation.

9. Manufacturer Wallet & Withdrawals

Your Manufacturer Wallet holds your available earnings after deduction of the 5% platform charge, TDS, and TCS.
One-withdrawal rule: Only one active withdrawal at a time. A new withdrawal cannot be initiated until the previous one has been credited to your bank account.
Withdrawals require fully verified KYC (Factory Licence + GST + PAN + Bank). Manufacturers with incomplete KYC cannot withdraw.
Settlement target: 2–5 business days from withdrawal request.

10. BW (Business Wallet) Position

Every completed order credits your BW Spendings with the order amount, building your position in the Platform's hourly share distribution system.
The 1% from your 5% platform charge is credited to your BW Available and BW Spendings, giving you passive income from the Admin Share pool every hour.
Manufacturers with high sales volumes benefit significantly from BW share distribution proportional to their position.

11. Tax Obligations

TDS — Section 194O (Income Tax Act, 1961)

The Company deducts TDS at 0.1% of gross sales above Rs. 5,00,000 annually under Section 194O using TAN MRIR02476F. Manufacturers without a valid PAN pay TDS at 5%. Form 16A is issued quarterly. PAN must match the manufacturing entity's registration.

TCS — CGST Act, Section 52

The Company collects TCS at 1% (0.5% CGST + 0.5% SGST, or 1% IGST for inter-state) on your net sales value and files GSTR-8 by the 10th of the following month. This TCS appears in your GSTR-2A and can be claimed as input tax credit.

GST — Manufacturer Compliance

Manufacturers must accurately reflect all Platform sales in their own GST returns (GSTR-1/GSTR-3B). The Platform issues monthly transaction statements to assist your filing. Platform service charges (5%) attract 18% GST on which the Company is the supplier and issues a tax invoice.

Input Tax Credit (ITC)

GST paid on Platform service charges is eligible for ITC in your hands, subject to the usual ITC eligibility conditions under the CGST Act.
