11. Investment Percentage Calculator
Calculate Investment Participation
Formula: Investor Participation % = (Investor Investment Amount ÷ Approved Product Development Cost) × 100. This is an illustrative calculation only — not a guaranteed return or fixed income. What counts as eligible gross revenue, and how refunds, taxes, chargebacks and bundled sales are treated, is defined in the signed agreement.
Investor participation
50.00%
₹5,00,000 of ₹10,00,000
Illustrative investor revenue share
₹1,00,000
50.00% of ₹2,00,000 eligible revenue — example only
Example from the brief: cost ₹10,00,000, contribution ₹5,00,000 → 50% participation; on ₹2,00,000 eligible revenue the illustrative share is ₹1,00,000. Actual figures depend on the approved cost and the signed agreement.
12–13. Revenue-sharing explanation & agreement duration
Investor Participation % = (Investor Investment Amount ÷ Approved Product Development Cost) × 100. Revenue sharing applies only to this selected product, for a three-year agreement, with monthly reporting and settlement according to the signed agreement. There is no automatic renewal, and no guaranteed profit or assured return. The agreement must define eligible gross revenue and how refunds, taxes, chargebacks, bundled sales and other adjustments are treated. Final terms need professional legal and tax review.
