Terms & Conditions

Last updated: 12 July 2026

1. Who we are

This website, dhruvamusic.com (and dhruvamusic.in), is operated by Dhruva Music Private Limited, a company incorporated in India with its registered office in Ghaziabad, Uttar Pradesh ("Dhruva Music", "we", "us", "our"). By using this website or submitting any material to us, you agree to these Terms & Conditions.

2. Demo & pitch submissions

Our website allows artists and labels to submit songs, links, and related information to our A&R team ("Submissions"). By making a Submission you confirm that:

A Submission does not create any contract, partnership, or obligation of any kind. We are not obliged to review, respond to, accept, release, or return any Submission. Reviewing a Submission does not entitle you to any payment or agreement. You retain all ownership of the material you submit; by submitting, you simply grant us permission to listen to and internally review the material for evaluation purposes.

3. Distribution services & revenue share

Dhruva Music offers music distribution and related label and marketing services. Any description of our services on this website — including the 80/20 revenue share — is indicative only and does not constitute a binding offer. Distribution and label services are provided only under a separate written agreement signed by both parties, and the terms of that signed agreement will prevail over anything on this website.

Revenue share basis: unless otherwise stated in a signed agreement, the 80/20 split refers to net receipts — that is, the amounts actually received by Dhruva Music from streaming platforms, stores, and delivery/distribution partners after deduction of platform fees, distribution partner fees, taxes, and similar third-party charges. 80% of such net receipts is payable to the artist or label, and 20% is retained by Dhruva Music.

4. Rights of artists

Unless expressly agreed otherwise in a signed agreement, artists and labels retain full ownership of their master recordings and compositions. Nothing on this website transfers any intellectual property rights to Dhruva Music.

5. Acceptable use of this website

You agree not to misuse this website, including by submitting unlawful, infringing, or malicious content; attempting to gain unauthorised access to our systems; or using the site to send spam. We may refuse or remove any Submission and restrict access to the website at our discretion.

6. Marketing estimates and third-party platforms

Any figures shown on this website (such as estimated streaming earnings) are illustrations only and are not guarantees of income. Streaming platforms, stores, and social networks referenced on this website are independent third parties; we do not control their policies, payout rates, or availability, and their trademarks belong to their respective owners.

7. Limitation of liability

This website is provided "as is". To the maximum extent permitted by law, Dhruva Music shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential loss arising from the use of this website or from any Submission. Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot be limited under Indian law.
