This Shipping Policy outlines the terms and conditions governing the shipment and delivery of products purchased from Akshar Aroma. We are committed to ensuring secure handling, timely dispatch, and transparent communication throughout the delivery process.
1. Service Coverage
Akshar Aroma currently ships across India through reputable third-party logistics partners. International shipping may be offered selectively and will be subject to separate terms, duties, and carrier regulations.
2. Order Processing
- Orders are processed within 1–3 business days following successful payment confirmation.
- Orders placed on weekends or public holidays are processed on the next working day.
- Processing time refers to order verification, quality checks, packaging, and handover to the courier partner. It does not include transit time.
Akshar Aroma reserves the right to hold orders for additional verification in cases of payment authorization concerns.
3. Estimated Delivery Timelines
Delivery timelines vary based on the destination and courier network:
- Metro Cities: 3–6 business days
- Non-Metro / Tier 2 & 3 Cities: 5–9 business days
- Remote Locations: May require additional transit time
All timelines are estimates and may be affected by factors beyond our control, including weather conditions, logistics disruptions, regulatory inspections, or peak seasonal demand.
4. Shipping Charges
Shipping charges are calculated at checkout based on:
- Delivery location
- Order value
- Applicable promotional offers
Akshar Aroma may offer complimentary shipping on orders above a specified value, as announced on the website. Such offers are subject to change without prior notice.
5. Shipment Confirmation & Tracking
Upon dispatch, customers will receive:
- A shipment confirmation email and/or SMS
- A tracking number with courier details
Tracking updates may take 24–48 hours to reflect in the courier system after dispatch.
6. Packaging & Handling
Given that perfumes are classified as fragile and flammable goods, all shipments are:
- Securely packed using protective materials
- Sealed to prevent leakage or tampering
- Dispatched in compliance with courier handling regulations
Akshar Aroma ensures quality checks prior to dispatch; however, transit risks are subject to courier handling standards.
7. Delivery Attempts & Failed Deliveries
Courier partners typically make multiple delivery attempts. If delivery fails due to:
- Incorrect or incomplete address
- Recipient unavailability
- Refusal to accept the shipment
The order may be returned to our facility. Re-shipment will be processed at the customer’s expense unless the failure occurred due to an error on our part.
8. Address Accuracy
Customers are solely responsible for providing accurate shipping details at checkout. Akshar Aroma shall not be liable for delays or losses arising from incorrect or incomplete address information.
Address modifications may be accommodated only before dispatch and cannot be guaranteed once the order is shipped.
9. Damaged, Lost, or Tampered Shipments
If a package appears damaged, tampered with, or incomplete at the time of delivery:
- Customers must notify us within 24–48 hours of receipt.
- Please Note: Continuous, unedited unboxing video evidence is strictly required to process claims. This video serves as the only valid proof for any damaged, missing, or incorrect items.
In case of confirmed transit damage or loss, we will coordinate with the courier partner and provide an appropriate resolution in accordance with our Return & Refund Policy.
10. Force Majeure
Akshar Aroma shall not be held liable for delays or failure to deliver due to events beyond reasonable control, including but not limited to natural disasters, strikes, governmental restrictions, transportation disruptions, or other force majeure events.
