Comprehensive Articles & Protective Clauses (Quick Index)
1The Absolute Zero Liability Doctrine (₹0.00 Financial Liability)
To the fullest extent permissible under applicable Indian laws, including the Information Technology Act, 2000, the Indian Contract Act, 1872, the Specific Relief Act, 1963, and the Consumer Protection Act, 2019:
- Total Damage Immunity: In no event, under no circumstances, and under no legal theory (whether in contract, tort including negligence, product liability, restitution, statutory duty, breach of warranty, or otherwise) shall JANVI PACKAGING, its proprietors, founders, developers, officers, contractors, or infrastructure providers be liable for any direct, indirect, special, incidental, punitive, exemplary, statutory, or consequential damages of any nature whatsoever.
- Exclusion of Business & Tax Losses: We expressly disclaim any and all liability for loss of business profits, lost revenue, lost commercial goodwill, tax penalties, interest, reassessments, business interruptions, data corruption, loss of electronic records, server downtime, or cyber-security breaches.
- Absolute Aggregate Cap: If, notwithstanding the foregoing total exclusion of liability, a court or arbitral tribunal of competent jurisdiction determines by final non-appealable judgment that JANVI PACKAGING has any liability, our total, aggregate, cumulative liability for all claims shall be strictly and conclusively limited to ₹0.00 (Zero Rupees Only), or the actual subscription fee paid by the user in the preceding thirty (30) days for the specific software module that directly caused the damage, whichever is lesser.
2Statutory Safe Harbour Intermediary Immunity (Section 79 IT Act, 2000)
Bill Way and JANVI PACKAGING operate solely and strictly as an “Intermediary” as defined under Section 2(1)(w) of the Information Technology Act, 2000.
In accordance with Section 79 of the Information Technology Act, 2000, Bill Way does not:
- Initiate the transmission of any invoice, ledger, delivery challan, or financial record;
- Select the receiver of the transmitted records; and
- Select or modify the information contained in the transmission.
Consequently, JANVI PACKAGING enjoys unconditional statutory safe harbour immunity from all civil, criminal, consumer, tax, or third-party liabilities arising from user-generated content, transaction records, line items, pricing, or documentation processed through the platform.
3No Chartered Accountancy, Tax, Legal or Banking Advisory
Bill Way is exclusively an automated software medium and calculating tool. JANVI PACKAGING is not a Chartered Accountant (CA) firm, GST practitioner, tax counsel, financial auditor, banking escrow, or legal consultancy.
All tax algorithms, CGST/SGST/IGST/UTGST calculations, HSN/SAC lookups, reverse charge flags, Cess calculations, TCS/TDS splits, and round-offs operate purely based on the user’s manual configuration and input data. You bear 100% sole statutory duty to consult a licensed Chartered Accountant (CA) or certified tax professional to verify that your invoices and GSTR filings comply with current notifications issued by the Central Board of Indirect Taxes and Customs (CBIC) and Ministry of Finance.
4User Data Authenticity, Anti-Fraud & Tax Compliance Warranty
The user warrants and represents that all data entered into Bill Way represents genuine, bona fide, legally authorized commercial transactions.
JANVI PACKAGING accepts ZERO liability for:
- Fake invoicing, circular trading, fake Input Tax Credit (ITC) claims, or tax evasion conducted by any user.
- Incorrect party GSTIN, invalid PAN, duplicate document numbers, or improper place of supply declarations.
- Statutory summons, search & seizure proceedings, penalties under Sections 73, 74, 122, 129, 130 of the CGST Act, 2017, or Directorate General of GST Intelligence (DGGI) audits.
5Government Portals, NIC E-Way Bill & E-Invoice Systems
Bill Way provides JSON serialization tools and API connectors to assist in complying with GST Rule 138 (E-Way Bills) and Rule 48(4) (E-Invoicing).
We have no control over the servers, rate limits, APIs, or availability of the Goods and Services Tax Network (GSTN) or National Informatics Centre (NIC). JANVI PACKAGING is expressly exempt from any liability for transit delays, vehicle impoundments, confiscation of goods, late fees, or fines caused by government portal downtimes, token expiries, or payload validation errors.
6OCR & AI Document Intelligence Engine Disclaimer
Our AI-driven Optical Character Recognition (OCR) tools are offered purely as convenience features.
Machine learning heuristics may misread numbers, decimal points, HSN codes, dates, or vendor titles due to print noise, folds, or font variations. The user has an un-waivable obligation to manually verify every single field before saving a document. JANVI PACKAGING shall have zero liability for accounting errors resulting from unverified OCR scans.
7Third-Party Integrations (WhatsApp, SMTP, Google Drive, Payment Gateways)
Bill Way integrates with third-party networks including Meta/WhatsApp, SMTP relays, Google Drive, and UPI/Payment Gateway aggregators.
We do not control and cannot guarantee the deliverability, uptime, security, or data integrity of these third-party services. JANVI PACKAGING is not responsible for failed WhatsApp dispatches, email spam filtering, payment gateway settlement holdbacks, or banking transaction reversals.
8“AS IS” and “WITH ALL FAULTS” Absolute Warranty Disclaimer
The Bill Way software platform, mobile apps, desktop binaries, and cloud servers are provided on a strict “AS IS”, “AS AVAILABLE”, and “WITH ALL FAULTS” basis.
JANVI PACKAGING disclaims all warranties, express, implied, statutory, or otherwise, including but not limited to implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular business purpose, uninterrupted operation, title, quiet enjoyment, data security, and non-infringement.

You irrevocably waive any right to bring or participate in any class action lawsuit, representative consumer proceeding, or multi-party dispute against JANVI PACKAGING or its developers.
11Statutory Mutual Sole Arbitration & Exclusive Mumbai Jurisdiction
This agreement, disclaimer, and any dispute arising hereunder shall be governed exclusively by the substantive laws of the Republic of India.

The omission, non-mention, or failure to explicitly specify any particular situation, technological bug, server interruption, mathematical discrepancy, statutory tax amendment, banking malfunction, device incompatibility, third-party outage, or business contingency in this document SHALL UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES BE CONSTRUED, INFERRED, PRESUMED, OR INTERPRETED AS AN ADMISSION, ASSUMPTION, OR ACCEPTANCE OF LIABILITY BY JANVI PACKAGING.
To the absolute maximum extent permissible under applicable law, any scenario, risk, edge-case, defect, failure, tax liability, loss, or damage NOT expressly enumerated herein shall automatically and by default be governed by the Absolute Zero Liability Doctrine (Article 1), placing 100% of the operational, statutory, and commercial risk exclusively upon the user.
13Express Waiver of the “Contra Proferentem” Rule of Interpretation
The common-law rule of construction that ambiguities, silences, or omissions in a drafted agreement are to be construed against the drafting party (the “Contra Proferentem” doctrine) is expressly, knowingly, and irrevocably WAIVED by the user.
In the event of any perceived ambiguity, interpretive dispute, linguistic nuance, or legal silence within this Disclaimer or our Terms of Service, this document shall at all times be interpreted, construed, and enforced in the manner that grants JANVI PACKAGING the broadest possible statutory immunity, zero monetary liability (₹0.00), and complete indemnification.
14Assumption of All Known and Unknown Future Technological & Regulatory Risks
The user acknowledges that business software, cloud database architecture, tax frameworks, and cyber-security environments involve both known risks and currently unknown, unpredictable, or emerging technological contingencies (including quantum computing breaches, artificial intelligence anomalies, decentralized network disruptions, and unforeseen legislative revisions).
The user knowingly, willingly, and voluntarily assumes ALL such risks, both foreseen and unforeseen, foreseeable and unforeseeable.
15Severability, Blueprint Reformation & Absolute Survival Clause
