4. Estimated Delivery Time
Once shipped, orders are usually delivered within [5-7 business days], depending on your location and courier service.

5. Delivery Areas
We currently deliver across India, subject to courier serviceability at your pincode. If your area isn’t serviceable at checkout, please contact us on WhatsApp or email and we’ll try to help. We do not offer international shipping at this time.
6. Order Tracking
When your order ships, we’ll share your tracking details by email or WhatsApp. You can use them to follow your parcel on the courier’s website. If your tracking hasn’t updated for several days, contact us and we’ll look into it.
7. Cash on Delivery (COD)
- Please keep the exact amount ready when your order arrives.
- COD is subject to pincode availability.
- If a COD order is refused or can’t be delivered after repeated attempts, it will be returned to us. We may then ask you to pay online for future orders.
8. Address Accuracy
Please check your shipping address, pincode, and phone number carefully before placing your order. We are not responsible for delays or non-delivery caused by incorrect or incomplete details. If you need to correct your address, contact us as soon as possible. We can only change it if your order hasn’t been shipped yet.
9. Failed Delivery Attempts
If the courier can’t reach you or no one is available to receive the parcel, they will usually make more than one attempt. After repeated failed attempts, the order may be returned to us. If this happens, please contact us to arrange re-shipping. Re-shipping charges may apply.
10. Damaged or Lost Packages
We pack every candle carefully, but occasionally parcels get damaged in transit.
- Damaged or wrong item: Please contact us within [48 hours] of delivery with your order number and clear photos or a short unboxing video.
