Policy details regarding order cancellation, returns eligibility, food product policies, and refunds.
Effective Date: 24 August 2026
3.1 Cancellation by customer
Customers may request cancellation before dispatch, subject to the cancellation window displayed for the product/order. Cancellation may not be available after dispatch or at an advanced delivery stage.
3.2 Seller/BuyDesi cancellation
Orders may be cancelled for stock unavailability, fulfilment failure, serviceability problems, suspected fraud, legal restrictions or other legitimate operational reasons. Where a refund is due for a prepaid order, it will be initiated through the applicable payment process.
3.3 Returns and replacements
Return/replacement eligibility is product- and category-specific. The policy shown on the product page/order page should identify the applicable return window and remedy.
3.5 Damaged/wrong/missing items
Customers should report eligible issues promptly and within the stated claim period. BuyDesi or the seller may request photographs, videos, packaging information or other reasonable evidence.
3.6 Food and agricultural products
Fresh, perishable, opened or consumable products may have restricted physical returns. Eligible complaints may be resolved by replacement, refund or another remedy depending on the product policy and applicable law.
3.7 Refund processing
Approved refunds are generally processed through the original payment method where technically possible. COD refunds may require bank or other valid payment details. Bank/payment-provider processing times may vary.
3.8 RTO/failed delivery
If delivery fails because of address error, refusal, unavailability or other delivery events, the parcel may return to the seller. Refund eligibility depends on the reason and applicable order policy.
3.9 Fraudulent claims
BuyDesi may investigate repeated or fraudulent claims and may restrict accounts or return privileges where permitted by law and the applicable agreement.
