If the return is approved, we will provide instructions for returning the product.

Please do not send products back without receiving return instructions from our team.

6. Return Shipping

For products that are confirmed to be damaged, defective, or incorrectly shipped by Padmashree Creations, we may arrange or bear the applicable return shipping cost, subject to verification.

For other eligible returns, return shipping charges may be deducted from the refundable amount or may be borne by the customer.

7. Product Inspection

All returned products are subject to inspection.

If the returned product is found to be used, washed, altered, damaged, stained, or otherwise does not meet our return conditions, Padmashree Creations reserves the right to reject the return.

In such cases, the product may be shipped back to the customer.

8. Exchanges

Where applicable, eligible products may be exchanged for another product or size, subject to availability.

If the requested replacement product is unavailable, we may offer an alternative solution or refund, depending on the circumstances.

Exchange requests must meet the same product-condition requirements applicable to returns.

9. Refunds

Once the returned product has been received and successfully inspected, the refund will be processed for eligible orders.

Refunds will generally be issued to the original payment method used to place the order.

The time taken for the refund to reflect in your account may vary depending on the payment gateway, bank, or financial institution.

10. Cash on Delivery Orders

For eligible returns associated with Cash on Delivery orders, customers may be required to provide valid bank account or other payment details for processing the refund.

The refund will be processed only after the returned product has been received and approved.

Original shipping charges, if applicable, may be non-refundable unless the return is due to an error on our part, such as:

  • Incorrect product being shipped.

  • Damaged product being delivered.

Any applicable refund will be determined after reviewing the individual case.
