Refund , Return & Cancellation Policy

1. PURPOSE

This Refund, Return & Cancellation Policy explains the conditions under which orders, customised products, institutional supplies, manufacturing orders, student kits, uniforms, bags, apparel and other products supplied by UNIVOR may be cancelled, returned, replaced, exchanged or refunded.

UNIVOR deals with both standard products and customised/institutional requirements. Therefore, the applicable refund or return process may differ depending upon the nature and stage of the order.

This Policy is subject to applicable Indian law and does not restrict any statutory right or remedy that cannot legally be excluded.

For applicable e-commerce transactions, the Consumer Protection (E-Commerce) Rules, 2020 require appropriate consumer protections, including provisions relating to goods/services that are not as advertised or agreed or where delivery is delayed, subject to the exceptions provided under the Rules.


2. SCOPE OF THIS POLICY

This Policy applies to products and services supplied through:


3. TYPES OF ORDERS

UNIVOR broadly processes the following categories of orders:

A. Standard Products

Products supplied without significant customer-specific modification.

B. Customised Products

Products manufactured or modified according to Client requirements, including:

C. Institutional / Bulk Orders

Orders placed by schools, preschools, educational institutions, organisations, companies or other eligible Clients involving bulk quantities.

D. Student Kits

Customised kits containing combinations of uniforms, bags, books, stationery, learning materials or other institutional products.


4. ORDER CANCELLATION

Cancellation requests must be submitted as soon as possible through the authorised UNIVOR communication channel.

Cancellation may be considered based on the current status of the order.

UNIVOR may determine whether the order is:

Once production, procurement, branding or other operational execution has commenced, cancellation may not be possible for customised or institutional orders.


5. CANCELLATION BEFORE PROCESSING

Where an order has not yet entered procurement, production, branding or other operational execution, UNIVOR may consider a cancellation request.

Any applicable refund shall be processed after deducting charges that have already been incurred, where permitted by applicable law and the applicable commercial terms.


6. CANCELLATION AFTER PRODUCTION HAS STARTED

Once customised production or operational execution has commenced, cancellation may generally not be accepted because materials, labour, production capacity, branding and other resources may already have been committed.

Amounts already incurred or committed towards the order may therefore be non-refundable, subject to applicable law.

This may include:


7. CUSTOMISED PRODUCTS

Customised products are manufactured according to Client-specific requirements.

Examples include:

Because these products are specifically produced for the Client, returns or cancellations due to change of mind, preference or requirement may not be accepted after production has commenced, subject to applicable law.


8. DESIGN AND SAMPLE APPROVAL

Where a sample, design or mockup has been provided, the Client is responsible for reviewing:

Once approved, the approved reference may be used for bulk production.

Errors arising from specifications or approvals provided by the Client may not qualify for a refund or replacement.


9. WRONG PRODUCT RECEIVED

If the Client receives a product materially different from the confirmed order, the Client should notify UNIVOR within 48 hours of delivery.

The Client should provide:

UNIVOR may investigate the matter and, where the issue is verified as attributable to UNIVOR, provide an appropriate remedy.

  1. Photograph the package before opening, where possible.
  2. Record the condition of the packaging.
  3. Take photographs/videos of the product.

UNIVOR may coordinate with the logistics partner and investigate the claim.

Where a genuine manufacturing defect attributable to UNIVOR is established, UNIVOR may provide an appropriate remedy depending on the nature of the defect.

The remedy may include:

A manufacturing defect does not include normal manufacturing tolerances or variations described in the Terms & Conditions.


12. MANUFACTURING TOLERANCES

Commercially reasonable variations may occur in:

For bulk production, quantity variation of up to ±5% may apply where specified in the applicable order terms.

Such commercially acceptable variations shall not automatically constitute a defect.


13. WRONG SIZE

For customised institutional or bulk orders, the Client is responsible for providing and approving the applicable size chart and size breakup.

A return or refund may not be available where the product has been manufactured according to the size/specification approved by the Client.

Where UNIVOR supplies a standard, non-customised product and an incorrect size is supplied by UNIVOR, the matter may be reviewed under the applicable return/exchange conditions.


14. COLOUR DIFFERENCE

Minor colour differences may occur due to:

Where a physical sample has been approved, that sample shall generally serve as the applicable production reference.

Minor shade variation alone shall not automatically qualify for a refund.

A Client should not return the complete kit unless specifically instructed by UNIVOR.


19. PARTIAL ORDER ISSUES

This may include:


20. SHORTAGE / MISSING ITEMS

Any shortage or missing item should be reported within 48 hours of receipt.

UNIVOR may verify:

Where the shortage is verified as attributable to UNIVOR, the missing item may be supplied or another appropriate remedy may be provided.

UNIVOR may provide an appropriate remedy, which may include refund of the amount attributable to the unexecuted portion of the order, subject to the applicable commercial terms and law.

29. UNDELIVERED / REFUSED SHIPMENTS

If a shipment is returned because the Client:

additional shipping or re-dispatch charges may apply.

For customised institutional orders, refusal of delivery does not automatically cancel the Client’s payment obligations.


30. DUPLICATE ORDERS

If a duplicate order is placed accidentally, the Client should immediately contact UNIVOR.

If the duplicate order has not entered execution, UNIVOR may consider cancellation.

If execution has already commenced, cancellation may be restricted depending on the order status.
