Shipping Policy
Shipping & Delivery
VEGGIICART delivers only to locations that are currently serviceable through our delivery network. Customers may be required to enter their delivery address or location before placing an order.
Service availability may depend on:
- Pincode
- Delivery distance
- Order quantity
- Product availability
- Delivery capacity
- Operational feasibility
Delivery Address
Customers are responsible for providing a complete and accurate delivery address.
- Business / recipient name
- Contact person's name
- Mobile number
- Complete address
- Pincode
- Landmark / map details
Delivery Time
Estimated delivery dates or time slots may be displayed or communicated when applicable. Delivery times may vary due to market availability, procurement, traffic, weather, vehicle issues, high order volumes, government restrictions or supply-chain interruptions.
Estimated delivery time is not an absolute guarantee unless expressly confirmed otherwise.
Delivery Charges
Delivery charges, where applicable, may depend on delivery location, distance, order quantity, order value, weight and delivery requirements.
Receiving Your Order
The customer or an authorized representative should be available to receive and inspect the order wherever reasonably possible.
- Products received
- Quantity
- Visible quality
- Packaging
- Missing items
- Incorrect items
- Significant visible damage
Failed Delivery
A delivery may be unsuccessful where the customer is unavailable, premises are closed, the address is incorrect, the customer cannot be contacted, access is restricted or a valid order is refused without an eligible reason.
Because fresh produce is perishable, additional handling, delivery, cancellation or product charges may apply where the failed delivery is attributable to the customer.
Product Availability
All products are subject to availability. Fresh produce availability can change quickly because of market supply, seasonality, weather and procurement conditions.
If a product becomes unavailable, VEGGIICART may:
- Inform the customer
- Adjust available quantity
- Offer a suitable alternative
- Remove the unavailable item
- Cancel the affected item
- Provide an applicable refund
Natural Product Variations
Fruits and vegetables are natural agricultural products and may reasonably vary in:
- Colour
- Shape
- Size
- Texture
- Ripeness
- Appearance
- Weight
Minor natural variations that do not materially affect usability or reasonable quality will generally not qualify for return or refund.
Return & Refund Policy
Return Policy
Due to the perishable nature of fruits and vegetables, VEGGIICART generally does not accept routine returns after successful delivery.
Returns will not ordinarily be accepted for:
- Change of mind
- Product no longer required
- Incorrect quantity ordered
- Minor natural differences
- Normal variation in ripeness
- Improper storage after delivery
- Improper handling after delivery
Customers may still raise a complaint where there is a genuine issue with the delivered order.
Eligible Refund or Replacement Cases
A refund, replacement or another appropriate resolution may be considered where:
- Wrong product delivered
- Product missing
- Material quantity difference
- Product materially damaged
- Produce spoiled or unusable on delivery
- Charged item was not delivered
- Prepaid order cancelled by VEGGIICART
Possible Resolution
- Full Refund
- Partial Refund
- Replacement
- Quantity Adjustment
- Account Credit
Refund approval for one affected item does not automatically provide a refund for unaffected items in the same order.
Reporting a Quality Issue
Because fruits and vegetables are highly perishable, quality-related complaints should be reported promptly after delivery.
Recommended Complaint Window — Within 6 Hours of Delivery. Visible quality, shortage or incorrect-item issues should ideally be reported within this period.
Information you may need to provide:
- Order number
- Product name
- Quantity affected
- Description of issue
- Clear photographs
- Video where necessary
- Packaging photographs
- Invoice or order information
Verification of Complaints
Submitting a complaint does not automatically guarantee a refund or replacement.
VEGGIICART may review:
- Photographs / videos
- Delivery records
- Packing information
- Product condition
- Quantity information
- Time since delivery
- Storage / handling conditions
Weight & Quantity Differences
Fresh produce may be sold by weight, pack, crate or another specified unit. Minor reasonable variations may occur during weighing, sorting, packing and handling.
Where a material discrepancy exists between the billed and delivered quantity, customers may raise a complaint for verification.
Product Storage & Handling
Once an order has been successfully delivered and accepted, customers are responsible for appropriate storage and handling.
- Improper storage
- Exposure to heat or sunlight
- Failure to refrigerate where necessary
- Excessive delay in unpacking
- Mishandling
- Contamination after delivery
Bulk Orders
Large-volume orders may require advance procurement, special sorting, packing or transportation arrangements.
Cancellation and refund conditions for certain bulk orders may therefore become more restrictive once procurement has commenced.
Special conditions applicable to particularly large or customized orders should be communicated before final confirmation wherever practicable.
Refund Abuse & Fraudulent Claims
VEGGIICART reserves the right to investigate claims where there is reasonable suspicion of misuse.
- Repeated false complaints
- Manipulated evidence
- Fraudulent refund requests
- Intentional refund-process misuse
- False missing-product claims
