1. About these terms
NSSAPCON 2027, the Annual Conference of the Neuro Surgical Society of Andhra Pradesh, is organised by the Neurosurgical Society of Vijayawada (NSV), referred to here as “we”, “us” or “the organisers”. The website apcnscon2027.com is operated by us. Pandu. K of Adtru (www.adtru.in) manages the conference on our behalf.
Society registration number: 332 of 2015 (Registrar of Societies, Vijayawada).
By registering, paying or submitting an abstract on this website you agree to these terms, together with our Privacy Policy, Cancellation and Refund Policy and Delivery Policy. “You” means the person registering or submitting.
2. What we offer
Through this website we provide:
- Delegate registration for NSSAPCON 2027, held on 6–7 February 2027 at Fortune Murali Park, Vijayawada. Registration is a service that gives you a place at the conference. It is not a physical product.
- Abstract submission for free papers and e-posters, reviewed by the scientific committee. Submitting an abstract is free.
Current fees are listed on the Fees page.
3. Who can register
The conference is for medical professionals. There are two registration categories:
- PG / resident: postgraduates and residents currently in neurosurgery training.
- Neurosurgeon: practising neurosurgeons and faculty.
If you register as a PG / resident you must show proof of your PG status at the registration desk, for example a letter from your head of department or a current institutional ID card. If you cannot show proof, you will be asked to pay the difference between the PG fee and the Neurosurgeon fee for the same period before you collect your badge.
Please give accurate details when you register. Your name will appear on your badge and certificate exactly as you enter it. A registration is for one named person and the badge may not be shared.
4. Fees and payment
- All fees are in Indian Rupees (INR). Fees are inclusive of applicable taxes.
- The fee depends on your category and the fee period (early bird, regular or spot) in force when you register. The exact amount is shown to you before you pay.
- Online payments are processed by our payment partners (Razorpay or Cashfree) by UPI, debit or credit card, or net banking. Your card and bank details are entered on the payment partner’s secure page. We never see or store them.
- Your registration is confirmed only when we receive your payment in full. Until then it is held as pending.
- If a payment is debited from your account but your registration is not confirmed, write to apcnscon2027@gmail.com with the transaction details. We will either confirm your registration or make sure the amount is returned to you.
- Spot registration at the venue is subject to availability.
5. Cancellation and transfer
You may cancel your registration by email. How much is refunded depends on when we receive your request; the full rules are in our Cancellation and Refund Policy. In short:
