HOW THE CD SUBSCRIPTION WORKS

• Every subscription includes four CDs which includes THREE UPDATES. The updates are named as X.0, X.1, X.2 and X.3.

• Subscriber gets the first CD, whichever update is current, at the time his subscription starts and later gets three quarterly updates.

• If someone subscribes at the time when X.2 is current volume the user gets quarterly updates till X.1 of the new volume.

• TIOL would like to clarify that a subscription gets over with the delivery of the fourth CD. The existing subscribers will have to go for fresh subscription for the next four CDs.

• The first CD (whichever update is current) runs for 10 times which is the evaluation period. To run more than that user needs to send the activation code (can be generated by clicking REGISTER button on the startup screen of the CD) along with the CD No. Once we get these two details on our email xcusest@taxindiaonline.com, a executable patch (.exe file) is generated and senT back to the user in form of an email attachment or a weblink, whichever desired by the user.

• This patch can be executed directly from the email by clicking on the weblink provided by us or in the alternative, download the patch onto the system and execute it by double clicking on it.  The CD can be used for 1000 times after activation.
