- The product and damage
Where appropriate, we may arrange a reverse pickup through our logistics partner.
The returned product may be inspected before a replacement or refund is approved.
4. Wrong Product Received
If you receive a product different from the product ordered, please notify us within 7 days of delivery.
After verification, we may arrange a replacement or refund, depending on product availability and the circumstances of the case.
5. Change of Mind
Returns due solely to a change of mind may not be accepted, unless specifically stated on the product page or otherwise communicated by us.
Customers are encouraged to review product information carefully before placing an order.
6. Products Not Eligible for Return
Unless otherwise stated, returns may not be accepted for products that:
- Have been used, washed, altered, damaged, or modified by the customer
- Are returned without original packaging where the packaging is necessary for resale
- Are missing accessories, tags, labels, or other components supplied with the product
- Have been damaged after delivery due to improper handling
- Are returned after the applicable return period
- Are specifically marked as non-returnable on the product page
Certain products may have additional return restrictions due to their nature.
7. Return Shipping
If the return is approved because the product was damaged, defective, incorrect, or otherwise eligible under this policy, we may arrange or bear the applicable return shipping cost.
For returns that are permitted for other reasons, the customer may be responsible for applicable return shipping charges.
8. Refunds
Once a return is approved and, where applicable, the returned product has been received and inspected, we will initiate the applicable refund.
Refunds will generally be processed to the original payment method used for the transaction.
Payments made through Razorpay may be refunded through Razorpay’s payment infrastructure. Razorpay states that refunds are generally routed to the same payment method used for the original transaction.
9. Refund Processing Time
After a refund is approved and initiated by us, the time taken for the amount to reflect in the customer’s account may depend on the payment method, bank, card issuer, UPI provider, or other financial institution.
Razorpay’s documentation states that normal refunds generally take approximately 10-15 working days, although the actual time may vary depending on the payment method and financial institution.
10. Cancellation Before Dispatch
Customers may request cancellation before an order has been dispatched.
Cancellation requests should be sent to us as soon as possible.
If the order has already been processed or dispatched, cancellation may not be possible and the customer may need to follow the applicable return procedure.
11. Failed Delivery / RTO
If an order is returned to us because it could not be delivered due to reasons attributable to the customer, such as:
- Incorrect address
- Incomplete address
- Customer unavailable
- Refusal to accept delivery
- Failure to respond to delivery attempts
the shipment may be marked as Return to Origin (RTO).
Any refund in such cases will be considered after the shipment is returned to us and may be subject to applicable shipping/RTO costs.
12. Exchange / Replacement
Where a replacement is approved, the replacement will be shipped subject to product availability.
If the same product is unavailable, we may offer an alternative resolution, including a refund, where applicable.
13. Refund Not Received
If you have received confirmation that your refund has been processed but the amount has not appeared in your account within the expected timeframe, please contact your bank/payment provider first.
You may also contact us with your order number and refund reference details so that we can assist you.
14. Fraudulent or Suspicious Transactions
We reserve the right to cancel or hold an order where we reasonably suspect fraud, misuse, payment irregularities, or other unauthorized activity.
Any refund in such circumstances will be handled after appropriate verification.
