Return, Refund & Cancellation Policy

Please read this policy carefully before making a purchase

At ChitraKalaKunja, every artwork and handcrafted product is created with care and attention to detail. Since many of our products are handmade, slight variations in color, texture, size, or finish are natural and make each piece unique. These variations are not considered defects.

1. Order Cancellation

You can cancel an order within 12 hours of placing it, provided the order has not yet been shipped.

  • Orders may be cancelled within 12 hours of placing the order, or before dispatch — whichever happens earlier
  • Once an order has been shipped, it cannot be cancelled
  • Customized or made-to-order products cannot be cancelled once production has begun

How to cancel: Go to "My Orders" in your account, select the order, click "Cancel Order," and confirm. If the option isn't available, the order has likely crossed the 12-hour window, entered production, or already been shipped.

Refunds for cancelled orders: If your cancellation is approved, the full amount paid will be refunded to your original payment method within 5–7 business days.

2. Return Eligibility

We accept returns only under the following circumstances:

  • You received a damaged product
  • You received the wrong item
  • The product has a manufacturing defect

To request a return, please contact us within 48 hours of receiving your order with:

  • Your order number
  • Clear photographs or an unboxing video showing the issue
  • A brief description of the problem

Requests made after 48 hours may not be eligible for return or refund.

3. Non-Returnable Items

The following items cannot be returned or refunded:

  • Customized or personalized products
  • Handmade items with minor variations in color, design, or texture
  • Products damaged due to misuse or improper handling by the customer
  • Items returned without original packaging
4. Refund Policy

Once the returned product is received and inspected, we will notify you of the approval or rejection of your refund.

If approved:

  • Refunds will be processed to your original payment method within 5–7 business days
  • Shipping charges are non-refundable unless the error was on our part
5. Exchange Policy

We offer replacements instead of refunds when:

  • The item is damaged during shipping
  • You receive the wrong product
  • The product has a verified manufacturing defect

Subject to stock availability, a replacement will be dispatched at no additional cost.

6. Return Shipping
  • If the return is due to our mistake (wrong, defective, or damaged product), ChitraKalaKunja will bear the return shipping cost
  • For any other approved returns, the customer will be responsible for return shipping charges
7. Damaged Packages

If your package arrives visibly damaged, please:

  • Take photographs before opening the package
  • Record an unboxing video
  • Contact us within 48 hours of delivery

Failure to provide evidence may affect the approval of your claim.
