3. Nature of the platform
Read carefully
- BiogasMart is a lead generation and marketplace platform — we are not a party to any transaction between Buyers and Sellers
- We do not manufacture, supply, install, or warrant any Bio-CNG plant or related product listed on the Platform
- All commercial negotiations, agreements, pricing, delivery, installation, and after-sales responsibilities lie solely between the Buyer and the Seller
- BiogasMart does not guarantee that any Buyer requirement will result in a successful transaction, or that any Seller will respond to a lead
- Verified Seller status indicates that we have conducted a basic credential check; it does not constitute an endorsement of the Seller's products, quality, or business conduct
4. Lead sharing — buyer requirements
- When a Buyer submits a requirement form, BiogasMart reviews and matches the requirement against registered Sellers based on capability, region, and capacity
- Buyer contact details and project information are shared with matched Sellers per requirement
- Once a lead is delivered to a Seller, BiogasMart cannot retract or control further communication between Buyer and Seller

- Sellers must promptly inform BiogasMart of any change in business status, GST registration, operational address, or product range
- Sellers must not attempt to circumvent BiogasMart's platform fees by redirecting Buyers to direct channels before a transaction is completed, where such circumvention is prohibited under the applicable subscription plan

7. Seller verification
- BiogasMart conducts a verification process that may include GST number validation, document review, and reference checks
- Verified status is granted at BiogasMart's sole discretion and may be revoked if a Seller is found to have submitted false documents or received substantiated complaints
