Unserviceable Pin-codes

Sundays & Public Holidays
(a) Sundays & Public Holidays are not generally considered as working days for dispatches from our workshop, so dispatches will then take place the following day. (b) Sundays & Public Holidays are not generally considered as working days for deliveries by our shipping vendors, so scheduled deliveries will then take place the following day.
Incorrect shipping recipient contact details
In case the customer has entered incorrect contact details (shipping address, phone number, email), we are unable to process the order for dispatch. We will get in touch with the customer to clarify the correct details but until it is rectified shipping vendors will not accept the packages for delivery.
Time-Sensitive Order Timelines
Our shipping timelines mentioned above is the typical time frame (for 90% of packages) for our shipping vendors to make the deliveries pan-India. However, occasionally it takes an extra 1-2 days to complete the delivery and in rare instances, the shipping vendor needs more time. So, in case the deliveries are time-sensitive (for eg: needed urgently before a trip), we would not recommend taking the chance if the time available is short.
Max number of delivery attempts
Our shipping vendors will typically attempt the delivery within the expected timelines shared. In case the customer is not available to take delivery at the recorded address in the 1st attempt, they will make maximum 2 more attempts (total 3 attempts) in the following 1-2 days. After 3 failed attempts, the product will be returned back to our workshop and the order will stand cancelled.

In case you would like to gift one of our products to someone, please place the order on our website. When placing the order
(a) please enter the recipient's address in the shipping details so that the shipment goes to the recipient.
(b) please enter your email ID & phone number so that all delivery alerts & shipping coordination can happen with you instead of the gift recipient.
(c) email us that it is a gift so that we do not include the price tags & invoice in the parcel.
(d) select a per-paid payment option instead of Cash on Delivery.
