2. Nature of the Platform; No Advisory Relationship
FundProp operates a technology platform that provides information regarding, and facilitates subscriptions to, real estate-related Offerings sponsored by FundProp affiliates or unaffiliated third-party Sponsors. FundProp does not itself develop, own, manage, or operate real property, except through the Offerings described in the applicable Offering Documents, and does not act as a real estate agent within the meaning of RERA or any state rules made thereunder.
Nothing on the Platform constitutes investment, legal, tax, or accounting advice, and no fiduciary, advisory, or brokerage relationship is created between you and FundProp by virtue of your use of the Platform. FundProp is not registered as an investment adviser, stock broker, portfolio manager, or intermediary with the Securities and Exchange Board of India ("SEBI") unless expressly stated otherwise in the relevant Offering Documents. Any securities, units, or interests offered through the Platform are offered only by means of the applicable Offering Documents, in compliance with Applicable Law, and this Platform does not constitute an offer to sell, or the solicitation of an offer to buy, any security or interest in any jurisdiction in which such offer or solicitation would be unlawful.

4. Investment Risk Disclosures
Investing in real estate-related Offerings involves substantial risk, including the risk of loss of the entire amount invested. By using the Platform, you acknowledge and agree that:
- real estate values, rental income, and occupancy are subject to fluctuation due to market, economic, regulatory, environmental, and interest rate conditions beyond FundProp's or any Sponsor's control, and may also be affected by changes in stamp duty, GST, or other government levies applicable to real estate transactions in India;
- Offerings are generally illiquid, may be subject to lock-in or hold periods, and there is no guarantee that a secondary market will exist or that redemptions will be permitted or funded on any particular timetable;
- distributions, if any, are not guaranteed and may be suspended, reduced, or paid from sources other than operating cash flow, including borrowed funds or return of capital;
- past performance of any Offering, Sponsor, or the Platform is not indicative of future results, and projections, targeted returns, or pro forma figures are estimates only and may not be achieved;
- certain Offerings may employ leverage or be affected by title, land use, RERA registration, or other regulatory approval risk associated with the underlying real property, each of which increases both potential returns and potential losses; and
- you should carefully read the Offering Documents in full, including the "Risk Factors" section, and consult with your own independent legal, tax, and financial advisors before making any investment decision.
5. Investment Process; Subscriptions
To invest in an Offering, you must complete the applicable subscription process, including execution of a subscription agreement and completion of identity verification ("Know Your Customer") and anti-money-laundering checks in accordance with the Prevention of Money Laundering Act, 2002 and rules framed thereunder. FundProp and each Sponsor reserve the right, in their sole discretion, to accept or reject any subscription, in whole or in part, and to close, extend, oversubscribe, or cancel any Offering at any time and for any reason, subject to the terms of the applicable Offering Documents. Funds submitted in connection with a subscription may be held in a designated escrow account with a scheduled bank pending acceptance of your subscription and satisfaction of applicable closing conditions.
6. Fees and Compensation
FundProp and its affiliates may receive fees and other compensation in connection with the Platform and specific Offerings, which may include origination, asset management, disposition, servicing, or platform fees, as well as fees paid by Sponsors. All fees applicable to a specific Offering, including any applicable Goods and Services Tax (GST), will be disclosed in the relevant Offering Documents prior to your investment.
