FAQ:
💡 Is there any investment risk involved?
Investments have risks by definition, especially if they are halal. Please find possible risk details for this campaign in the “Risk” section below.
💡 How is ‘fixed returns’ halal?
This is a sale contract (Murabaha) approved by our Shariah advisors where investors will purchase products first (biniyog.io will facilitate the purchase), and then sell to Legend care & publications at a mark-up. This mark-up amount against sold products is the fixed return / profit for investors.

Potential Risks
- Season-sensitivity: Legend Publications mainly sells books for university admission. Therefore, most of the yearly revenue is generated from the season-based months. If sales of one season gets affected due to any reason, the profit margin will be hurt significantly.
- Possible mitigation: The business has around 18 categories of books that include public university admission guides, government job preparation books, etc. Having this wide range of books keeps the sales wheel running throughout the year. The business generates stable online order sales every month. “Khondokar’s General Knowledge” is the blockbuster/ best-selling product of this business. Over 10,000 copies of it were sold in the previous year.

- Price hike by seller: The price of the books might be increased this year to adjust to the price-hike of the raw materials and other costs. If any strong competitor can keep the price significantly low, Legend Publication’s market demand might be jeopardized.
- Possible mitigation: The demand of competitive exam books is considered to be inelastic to price changes. Meaning, increasing the price of the books will not hamper the sales because demands are always through the roof for such kinds of books.

- Long credit-term affecting the working capital: Credit sales is the main constituent of this line of business. The common practice of such business is that the buyers receive the products before the start of the season making almost no payment or only small payments. The accounts are cleared after the end of the season. This results in cash stuck in the cycle for around 5-7 months.
- Possible mitigation: Legend Publications runs 2 coaching centres at two different locations, generates stable online order sales every month and one specific book is sold all throughout the year because of its extensive popularity. This lets them manage the operating cost in the months when the cash is stuck in the credit cycle.
biniyog.io will buy the products on behalf of investors first and secure ownership. The products will then be handed over to Legend Publications within a very short time frame.
Legend Publications would have the right to reject the products due to quality etc. The risk is expected to be minimal since Legend Publications themselves will be choosing the items before biniyog.io buys them.
This is a necessary risk to ensure Shariah compliance of the transaction.
biniyog.io has done in-house analyses of the projected returns of the business and they are expected to be able to repay on time, if not hugely impacted by macroeconomic issues.
==============
Please note that the business may be given an incentive in the form of a discount on early repayment, which can only come in effect if the investors agree.
Following example is an illustration:
If the business repays within 6 months, the markup profit can be 9% (instead of 12.75%). This benefits both parties – the business has to pay back less and investors get their money back faster at a higher annual rate of return (e.g. 9% in 6 months means 18% per annum)
Legend Publications will share instalment cheques with biniyog.io. A personal guarantee security cheque will also be kept from the business owner.
