Reduce Reuse Recycle - Green Initiative - April 2023 Update
How it works?
For degree section and exam preparation books of all sections:
PDFs of notes will be provided to students on Classroom app. To avoid physical distribution to everyone.
If physical books/printed copies are required they will be provided to students on a condition that after the end of exam the books are to be returned back to Khardikar Classes (Library Book Lending System)
A Security Deposit of book's printed price in addition to extra 50 will be collected at the time of book distribution which will be reimbursed back in full when the book is returned in good condition as store credit (KCGC). Make sure to take good care of the books.
On the total book fee 50 extra will be charged as service fee which will be non refundable if collecting cash reimbursement.
If fees is pending, it will be adjusted on returning the books. No reimbursement is provided in such case.
Amount will be preferred to be refunded in full as store credit (KCGC). If actual cash is required as reimbursement then 50 service charge will be deducted from total amount and remaining amount will be refunded in cash or UPI according to availability.
For not following each terms and condition 50 per terms and condition will be deducted from total cash reimbursement amount.
Security deposit has to be paid in cash only. Fine of extra 50 (non refundable) can be paid for online payment of deposit.
For school & junior college section:
Students can now opt for getting renewed books to help the support of reuse initiative.
At the end of year if the books are in good condition we will purchase the books back from students who are interested to sell and give them discount coupons for next admission worth 1000 - 3000 depending on condition and stream. (Not Mandatory)
Make sure to take good care of the books. Avoid directly writing anything on the books.
In case the pages of book are missing/cut/torne or severe water damage the books will not be accepted.
Terms and Conditions:
A label with name of the student, due date to submit the book back and signature of the staff member will be stuck on each book for identification of the book. Tampering or removal of this label will result in non acceptance of books at the time of return and deposit will be fortified.

Who is not eligible for cash reimbursement? What are other alternatives?
Students who have received additional cash discount on fees are not eligible for cash reimbursement (only store credit - KCGC) facility available for such students.
We advice such students to directly buy books from us rather than renting. If they decide to rent books then they will not receive cashback, rather will receive a discount coupon. Which can be redeemed in future transactions with KC. Make sure to preserve the discount coupon for redemption.
