Returns & Refund Policy
1. Perishable Food Product Policy
Due to FSSAI food safety regulations and the perishable nature of freshly baked millet goods, we cannot accept physical returns of opened or consumed food items once delivered.
However, our 100% Satisfaction Guarantee covers any issues regarding quality, transit damage, wrong item dispatches, or missing packages.
2. Damaged, Defective or Incorrect Shipments
If your package arrives damaged during transit, tampered with, spoiled, or contains an incorrect item, please report it within 24 hours of delivery.
3. Step-by-Step Claim Resolution
Upon verifying your claim (typically within 2–4 hours):
- Free Replacement Dispatch: We will bake a fresh replacement batch and re-ship it at zero extra cost to you.
- Full / Partial Refund Option: Alternatively, you may choose a full refund to your original payment method or instant store credit.
4. Order Cancellation Policy
| Order Category | Cancellation Window | Outcome / Fee |
