Shipping

Delivery information

These are practical estimates, not guaranteed delivery dates.

Within India

Orders usually arrive within 5–7 business days after dispatch. Remote destinations or limited courier-service areas may require additional time.

International delivery

Where international delivery is available at checkout, orders usually arrive within 10–21 business days after dispatch, subject to customs and local delivery conditions.

Shipping charges

The applicable charge is displayed at checkout and may vary by destination, order value, weight and active promotion. Free shipping applies only when specifically shown.

Tracking your parcel

Tracking can take a short period to activate after courier pickup. Use the link or number shared in your dispatch communication.

Address changes

Contact us immediately with the correction. We cannot guarantee an address change after fulfilment has begun or the parcel has been dispatched.

Customs and duties

For international orders, destination-country duties, taxes or customs charges may apply unless expressly included at checkout. These are determined by local authorities.

Possible delays: public holidays, severe weather, courier disruption, inaccessible locations, customs clearance and high-volume periods can extend delivery time.

Cancellations and delivery issues

When something does not go as planned

Contact us with your order number as early as possible. An order can be cancelled only before dispatch.

Marked delivered, not received

Check with household members, neighbours, reception or security first. If still missing, contact us so we can raise a courier investigation.

Common questions

Quick answers

Can I cancel an order after it has been dispatched?

No. Once dispatched, the order cannot be cancelled. Any later concern is assessed only under the return-eligibility conditions on this page.

Why is my tracking link not active yet?

Courier systems may take a short period to register a shipment after pickup. Check again later using the same tracking details.

Can I return an item without contacting PRADIPATVA first?

No. Unauthorised returns may not be accepted. Written approval and return instructions are required before sending anything back.

Do I need the original packaging?

Yes, for an eligible return review, retain the original packaging, invoice or other proof of purchase, and all parcel materials until the case is resolved.

Will I receive cash for a Cash on Delivery refund?

The available method is confirmed by our support team after approval. We request only verified details needed to process the refund safely.
