Refund policy

Last updated: 16/03/2026

At Chhunchi, we celebrate the craftsmanship of India’s handloom heritage by bringing you carefully curated sarees crafted by skilled artisans. Every saree is thoroughly inspected before dispatch to ensure it meets our quality standards.

The products offered on Chhunchi are handwoven and handcrafted by skilled artisans and weavers, often working from their homes or small workshops across India.

Because these sarees are created through traditional techniques, minor irregularities such as slight variations in weave, small slubs in the fabric, subtle print inconsistencies, or slight color differences may occur. These are natural results of the handmade process and are not considered defects or damage, but rather a reflection of the authenticity and uniqueness of handcrafted textiles.

We therefore encourage customers to review product details carefully before purchasing and to handle sarees with care if a return request needs to be made.

However, if there is an issue with your order, we are happy to assist you.

Returns Eligibility

We accept return requests only under the following circumstances:

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

To qualify for a return:

The request must be raised within 24 hours of delivery
The saree must be unused, unworn, and unwashed
The saree must be returned with original tags, packaging, and blouse piece intact

Returns requested after 24 hours of delivery may not be accepted.

Non-Returnable Items

Products that have been used, washed, or altered
Products returned without original packaging or tags
Products damaged after delivery due to improper handling
Requests made after the allowed reporting window

Natural Variations in Handloom Products

Our sarees are handwoven or handcrafted, which means minor variations may occur in:

Weaving patterns
Color tones
Texture or finish

These natural irregularities are not defects but rather a mark of authenticity and craftsmanship.

Additionally, colors may appear slightly different due to screen settings, lighting, or photography.
