FAQs

What policy goal does proportional niṣkraya serve?

It limits arbitrary pricing by owners, tying redemption to a verifiable economic basis and reducing coercive perpetuation of bondage.

How would a court use this rule?

By auditing the documented advance/outlay (prakṣepa) and setting niṣkraya accordingly.
