# Payments & Collections (India)

> **Audience:** Organizations that run an academy on Yuno (publish courses/webinars).
>
> **Scope:** India only. Pricing can be set in USD, INR, and AED (more currencies coming). This page documents the India flow and tax treatment.

***

### What you can sell & how you price

* You can publish **courses** and **webinars** on your academy.
* You can set **per-currency prices** for each product in **USD, INR, and AED**. (More currencies coming.)
* Unless noted otherwise, all fee calculations in this document are on the **price excluding tax**.

***

### Who charges whom (India)

* **Yuno is the Merchant of Record** for purchases on Yuno in India.
* **Customer** is invoiced by **Yuno** for the full amount (base price + GST, where applicable).
* **Academy** invoices **Yuno** for its share of the sale (base amount only) **plus GST**.
* **Yuno**:
  * collects the customer payment via Razorpay (cards/UPI/etc.).
  * deducts Yuno’s platform fee.
  * **withholds 10% TDS** on the academy’s base amount and **deposits it on the academy’s behalf**.
  * pays the academy the **net payout** (see formulas below).
  * remits **net GST** to the government (customer GST minus input GST on the academy invoice).

> **Note on refunds/chargebacks:** Refunds, disputes, and other adjustments are outside the scope of this page and will be documented separately.

***

### Yuno platform fee (India)

Your platform fee depends on **who drove the sale**:

* **Yuno‑attributed sale:** **30%** of the **selling price excluding tax**.
* **Academy‑attributed sale:** **3%** of the **selling price excluding tax**.

> **Attribution rules (India):** See Attribution (India). Each order in your reports will show its attribution source.

**What’s included in the fee**

* **Payment gateway/processing charges** (Razorpay) are **included** in Yuno’s fee.
* **Payout fees:** None. Payouts to academies are free.

### Attribution (India)

**Rule**\
If either the **lead (demo request)** or the **sale/payment** happens anywhere other than the academy’s own allowlisted domain/subdomain, the order is **Yuno‑attributed**. Only when **both** the lead and the sale happen on the academy’s allowlisted domain/subdomain is the order **Academy‑attributed**.

**What counts as academy‑owned**

* Domains/subdomains on your **allowlist** (e.g., `academy-name.yunolearning.com`, verified custom domains like `academy-name.com`, `learn.academy-name.com`).
* All other locations — including `yunolearning.com` — are **non‑academy**.

**Lookback**

* Leads are valid for **90 days**; if a sale occurs within 90 days of a qualifying lead, that lead participates in attribution.

**Staff‑created enrollments**

* Enrollments created by **Yuno staff** in the back office are **Yuno‑attributed** (shown in the enrollment form and reports).

**Edge cases**

* **Phone‑closed deals:** attribution follows the **host where payment is completed**.
* **Unknown/blank sources:** default to **Yuno**.
* **Subscriptions/installments:** **inherit attribution** from the initial enrollment for all subsequent collections.

**Reporting**

* Each enrollment shows an **Attribution Evidence** block with:\
  `lead_source_domain/type/timestamp`, `enrollment_host_domain/type`, and a **reason code** (`LEAD_NON_ACADEMY`, `ENROLLMENT_NON_ACADEMY`).

**Why it matters**

* Attribution determines your platform fee: **30%** for Yuno‑attributed, **3%** for Academy‑attributed.

***

### Taxes & compliance (India)

* **GST on customer invoice:** Yuno charges GST to the customer where applicable (e.g., 18%).
* **GST on academy invoice:** The academy issues a GST invoice to Yuno for its base share; GST is applied as per law and shown as a separate line item.
* **TDS (Income Tax):** Yuno withholds **10% TDS** on the academy’s **base** (pre‑GST) amount, **deposits it**, and makes the certificate available so the academy can claim it during return filing.

***

### Refund Policy

As an academy owner, by publishing a course on Yuno, you are bound by our refund policy as described [in the **Learner** section](https://yuno-learning.gitbook.io/docs/learners/refund-and-cancellation).

***

### Payouts

* **Schedule:** Monthly, by the **10th** of the following month.
* **How you get paid:** We use Razorpay to send money to your bank account (typically via NEFT/IMPS/UPI).
* **Fees:** None (no payout fees).
* **Documents available:**
  * **Payment Advice/Payout Statement** with order‑level detail.
  * **Draft supplier invoice** (see below) to minimize manual work.
  * **TDS acknowledgement/certificate** when available.

***

### Invoicing options (make it easy)

To reduce effort and errors, Yuno provides a built‑in invoicing flow for India:

1. **Draft & Approve (default)**
   * Yuno prepares a **draft GST supplier invoice** each cycle with your legal details, taxable value (your base share), and GST lines.
   * You **review and approve** it in one click (you can edit legal fields like address/GSTIN before approval).
   * The approved invoice is locked, attached to the payout, and archived.
2. **Upload your own invoice (fallback)**
   * If you prefer, upload your own invoice for the cycle; Yuno validates totals and highlights any mismatch.

> **Self‑billing:** If/when permitted and enabled, Yuno may offer self‑billing as a separate, opt‑in agreement. For now, use Draft & Approve.

***

### Formulas (India)

Let:

* **P** = Selling price (excluding tax)
* **g** = GST rate (e.g., 18% → 0.18)
* **f** = Yuno fee rate (0.30 for Yuno‑attributed; 0.03 for Academy‑attributed)
* **t** = TDS rate (10% → 0.10)

Derived:

* **Customer pays** = `P × (1 + g)`
* **Yuno fee** = `P × f`
* **Academy base share** = `P × (1 − f)`
* **TDS withheld** = `Academy base share × t`
* **GST on academy invoice** = `Academy base share × g`
* **Net payout to academy** = `Academy base share − TDS + GST on academy invoice`
* **Yuno net GST payable** = `Customer GST − GST on academy invoice`

#### Worked example — Yuno‑attributed (30% fee)

* **P** = ₹10,000, **g** = 18%, **f** = 30%, **t** = 10%
* Customer pays = ₹10,000 × 1.18 = **₹11,800**
* Yuno fee = ₹10,000 × 0.30 = **₹3,000**
* Academy base share = ₹10,000 × 0.70 = **₹7,000**
* TDS withheld = ₹7,000 × 0.10 = **₹700**
* GST on academy invoice = ₹7,000 × 0.18 = **₹1,260**
* **Net payout to academy** = ₹7,000 − 700 + 1,260 = **₹7,560**
* Yuno net GST payable = (₹11,800 − ₹10,000) − ₹1,260 = **₹540**

#### Worked example — Academy‑attributed (3% fee)

* **P** = ₹10,000, **g** = 18%, **f** = 5%, **t** = 10%
* Customer pays = **₹11,800**
* Yuno fee = ₹10,000 × 0.03 = **₹300**
* Academy base share = ₹10,000 × 0.97 = **₹9,700**
* TDS withheld = ₹9,700 × 0.10 = **₹970**
* GST on academy invoice = ₹9,700 × 0.18 = **₹1,746**
* **Net payout to academy** = ₹9,700 − 970 + 1,746 = **₹10,476**
* Yuno net GST payable = 1,800 − 1,746 = **₹54**

> **Rounding:** Final figures may be rounded to the nearest rupee in statements and invoices; minor rounding differences can appear.

### Discounts & coupons

* If a coupon/discount is applied, Yuno’s fee is taken on the **discounted price (excluding tax)**.
* The payout, GST, and TDS calculations all follow from the discounted base accordingly.

***

### Subscriptions & installments

For subscriptions or installment plans, calculations are based on **collections** (amounts actually received by Yuno):

* For each successful charge, let **C** = the **collected** amount **excluding tax** for that installment.
* Apply the same formulas as above, replacing **P** with **C** (fee, academy share, TDS, GST, net payout are all computed **per collection**).
