RPWD Act 2016 alignment
How SMARTON supports your obligations under the Rights of Persons with Disabilities Act 2016, including Schedule VII CSR eligibility, government scheme alignment, and audit-ready documentation for procurement teams.
How SMARTON supports the Act
Four sections of the RPWD Act 2016 most directly served by deploying SMARTON.
Right to accessibility (Section 40-46)
RPWD Act 2016 mandates accessible information and communication technology. SMARTON delivers WCAG 2.1 AA-compliant interfaces across web, mobile and smart glasses — including audio-first navigation, screen-reader compatibility and reduced-motion support.
Right to education (Section 16-17)
SMARTON's AI Tutor and Accessible Document AI enable visually impaired students to access textbooks, exam preparation and structured learning without sighted assistance — directly supporting the Act's mandate for inclusive education.
Right to employment (Section 20-22)
SMARTON's document reading, navigation and voice-assistant features make workplace participation feasible across roles. Employers deploying SMARTON support reasonable accommodation obligations under the Act.
Universal design (Section 2(t))
SMARTON is built audio-first and screen-reader native — usable by all without need for adaptation. Hardware integrates via open SDK so users are never locked into single-vendor solutions.
CSR-eligible activity
SMARTON deployments fall under multiple sub-clauses of Schedule VII of the Companies Act 2013.
Schedule VII (i) — Education
Promoting education, including special education and employment-enhancing vocation skills especially among children, women, elderly and the differently-abled.
Schedule VII (ii) — Healthcare & well-being
Promoting healthcare and reducing inequalities faced by socially and economically backward groups.
Schedule VII (iii) — Differently-abled support
Measures for the benefit of differently-abled, including livelihood enhancement projects.
We provide written confirmation under your specific Schedule VII sub-clause for every institutional deployment.
Government scheme alignment
We work with state and central government bodies on assistive device procurement.
ADIP scheme (Assistance to Disabled Persons)
Eligibility for ADIP scheme inclusion is under active discussion with relevant authorities. Contact us with your specific requirement and we'll confirm current status and provide tender-ready documentation.
State-level schemes & GeM portal
We are progressing GeM (Government e-Marketplace) portal listing and state-level scheme empanelments. Contact us with your specific scheme and state for the latest status.
