These Terms and Conditions (“Terms”) govern the use of the online admission registration facility and related payment services provided through the website of Nirmala Bhavan Higher Secondary School, Kowdiar, Trivandrum, Kerala – 695003 (“School”, “we”, “us”, or “our”).

By accessing the admission portal, submitting an admission application, or making a payment through the website, the parent or guardian (“Applicant”, “you”, or “your”) acknowledges that they have read, understood, and agreed to these Terms.

1. Online Admission Registration

1. The online admission facility allows parents or guardians to submit information for consideration of admission to the School.
2. Submission of an online admission application does not constitute confirmation, acceptance, or guarantee of admission.
3. Admission is subject to the School’s admission process, eligibility requirements, availability of seats, applicable tests or interviews, and the decision of the competent School authorities.
4. The School reserves the right to accept or reject an application in accordance with its admission policies and applicable rules.
5. The Applicant is responsible for ensuring that all information submitted through the admission form is accurate, complete, and current.

2. Information Submitted by the Applicant

The admission form may require information relating to the pupil and parent/guardian, including:

• Name of the pupil
• Date of birth
• Class for which admission is sought
• School currently attended
• Religion
• Community
• Category
• Whether the pupil has applied to other schools
• Parent/guardian name
• Relationship with the pupil
• Parent/guardian phone number
• Parent/guardian email address
• Occupation
• Official address
• Residential address
• Message or remarks
• Other information that may be required as part of the admission process

The Applicant represents that the information submitted is true and accurate to the best of their knowledge.

3. Admission Registration / Admission Fee

The online admission registration/admission fee applicable to the relevant admission process is:

₹500 (Indian Rupees Five Hundred only).

The applicable amount will be displayed to the Applicant before payment is initiated.

Payment of the ₹500 fee is a payment for the admission registration process and does not guarantee admission.

4. Payment Gateway

1. Payments may be processed through a third-party payment gateway integrated with the School website.
2. The Applicant may be redirected to the payment gateway’s secure payment interface to complete the transaction.
3. Payment processing may be subject to the payment gateway’s own terms, privacy policy, security procedures, and availability.
4. The School does not request the Applicant to provide confidential payment credentials such as a card PIN, banking password, or UPI PIN through the admission form.
5. The School shall not be responsible for delays or failures caused by banks, payment networks, payment gateways, telecommunications providers, or other third-party services outside the School’s reasonable control.

5. Payment Confirmation

A payment is considered successfully completed when the payment gateway confirms the transaction and the School receives or can verify the relevant payment status.

If money is debited from the Applicant’s bank account but the admission system does not immediately show the payment as successful, the Applicant should avoid making a second payment until the transaction has been verified.

The Applicant may contact the School with the payment/transaction reference number for verification.

6. No Guarantee of Admission

Payment of the ₹500 admission registration/admission fee does not guarantee or create a right to admission.

Admission remains subject to:

• Eligibility requirements;
• Availability of seats;
• The School’s admission process;
• Tests/interviews or other assessment requirements, where applicable; and
• The decision of the School authorities.

The School’s published admission rules provide that new students are admitted at the beginning of the academic year and may be admitted on the basis of performance in tests and interviews.

7. Cancellation and Refund

The ₹500 admission registration/admission fee is non-refundable.

No refund will be provided merely because an Applicant:

• Withdraws the application;
• Changes their mind;
• Chooses another school;
• Does not attend a test or interview;
• Does not complete subsequent admission formalities;
• Is not selected for admission;
• Does not meet the applicable admission criteria; or
• Otherwise decides not to proceed with admission.

The School does not provide cancellation-based refunds for the ₹500 admission registration/admission fee.

Any transaction reversal that is automatically required by a payment gateway, bank, card network, UPI provider, or applicable law is treated as a payment-processing matter and not as a discretionary cancellation refund by the School.

8. Applicant Responsibilities

The Applicant shall:

• Provide truthful and accurate information;
• Verify all information before submitting the form;
• Ensure that the application relates to the correct pupil;
• Keep payment/transaction details safely;
• Avoid duplicate submissions unless instructed by the School; and
• Promptly notify the School if important information submitted in the application is incorrect.

9. Website Availability

The School will make reasonable efforts to maintain the availability and functionality of the admission portal.

However, temporary interruptions may occur due to:

• Scheduled maintenance;
• Technical failures;
• Internet or network issues;
• Payment gateway or banking services;
• Security incidents; or
• Circumstances beyond the School’s reasonable control.

The School shall not be responsible for losses arising solely from temporary unavailability of the online admission facility.

• Submit false, misleading, or fraudulent information;
• Attempt unauthorized access to the website or admission system;
• Interfere with the security or operation of the website;
• Introduce malicious code or automated requests intended to disrupt the service;
• Attempt to manipulate admission or payment records; or

The latest version will be published on the School website with the applicable effective date.
