1. Introduction

Welcome to EPCeMart India Private Limited ("EPCeMart"). These Terms and Conditions govern access to and use of www.epcemart.com and the related services provided through or in connection with the website. By using the website, you agree to these Terms.

2. Definitions

“EPCeMart,” “we,” “us,” and “our” mean EPCeMart India Private Limited, the owner and operator of the website.

“User” or “you” means any visitor, registered user, buyer, seller, Business Associate, or other person using the website.

“Services” include product listing, enquiry generation, information display, buyer-seller coordination, inspection coordination, documentation follow-up, commercial facilitation, logistics coordination support, and related business-support activities.

“Transaction Parties” means the buyer, seller, and any authorised contracting or invoicing entity identified in the applicable commercial documents.

3. Nature and Role of the Platform

EPCeMart operates as a digital catalogue and business-facilitation platform for industrial and EPC surplus, leftover, unused, used, obsolete, slow-moving, non-moving, and related materials and assets.

Products and materials displayed on the website are presented for visibility, information, and enquiry generation. The website does not itself complete an online purchase, sale, payment, auction, or automatic contract.

Enquiries submitted through the website indicate business interest and are followed by offline technical, commercial, and transaction processes.

Material inspection, technical evaluation, price negotiation, commercial confirmation, Purchase Orders, invoices, payments, material release, loading, transportation, and logistics are handled offline in accordance with the applicable transaction documents.

EPCeMart may facilitate introductions, communication, inspection arrangements, documentation, commercial coordination, and transaction support. Final obligations are governed by the agreed Purchase Order, invoice, contract, or other applicable transaction documents.

4. EPCeMart and Regional Business Associate Support

EPCeMart may provide regional support through authorised Business Associates across India and other locations where EPCeMart operates.

Regional Business Associates may support local coordination, buyer-seller communication, material inspection arrangements, document follow-up, commercial discussions, site coordination, logistics facilitation, and transaction progress, depending on the assignment.

Business Associates act in a facilitation and coordination capacity for activities assigned by EPCeMart. Final technical acceptance, commercial approval, Purchase Orders, invoices, payments, material release, and contractual commitments remain subject to confirmation by the authorised Transaction Parties and the applicable commercial documents.

Where necessary, EPCeMart may define the scope of a Business Associate’s involvement for a specific transaction, project, location, or activity.
