Terms.

Last updated: May 2026

Engagement model

All paid engagements run on a fixed-fee SOW per project. Default split: 50% on signing, 50% on launch. Run / retainer engagements bill monthly in advance. No hourly billing.

Scope changes

Mid-project scope changes are documented in a one-page change order with a new fixed price. You sign or decline. No silent additions.

Ownership

You own the deliverables on full payment. Source code, design files, and content rights transfer to you. The studio retains the right to feature work in our portfolio unless we agree otherwise in writing.

Confidentiality

Standard mutual NDA available on request. Either way, we treat your data and product roadmap as confidential by default.

Refunds

If you withdraw after the discovery + scope phase but before build begins, the deposit is returned in full. After build begins, refunds are pro-rated against work completed.

Jurisdiction

Engagements with Vikas Bendha Studio are governed by the laws of India, unless your SOW specifies otherwise.
