Return & Refund Policy

Girvi.in (“we”, “us”, “our”) works with partner shops and service workflows for gold, silver, and ornament sales. Because precious metals are priced dynamically and depend on purity/weight, returns and refunds follow specific verification rules.

1) Scope

  • This policy applies to eligible products purchased through Girvi.in or via authorized Girvi partner shops (online/offline orders logged on Girvi.in).
  • Policy covers: returns, exchanges, cancellations, refunds, and damaged/incorrect items.
  • Some items may be marked “Final Sale / Non-Returnable” on the invoice/product page.

2) Return eligibility (gold/silver & ornaments)

A return may be accepted only when all conditions are met:

  • Invoice/Order ID: Must match Girvi records.
  • Condition: Unused, not damaged, not altered, no missing parts.
  • Seals/Packaging: Tamper-proof seals (if any) must be intact.
  • Purity & weight verification: Subject to verification at our/partner’s facility.
For bullion/coins/bars, opened packaging or broken seals usually makes the item non-returnable unless the product arrived defective or incorrect.

3) Return window

  • Standard window: 7 days from delivery/collection date (recommended).
  • Damaged/incorrect item: Report within 24–48 hours of delivery with clear photos/video.
  • Partner shops may have a different window; if so, the invoice/shop policy prevails.

4) How to request a return

  • Contact support with: Order ID, invoice copy, product photos, reason for return.
  • If eligible, we issue a return approval and pickup/drop instructions.
  • Pack item securely with invoice; do not remove tags/labels.

5) Verification & acceptance

All precious metal returns are subject to inspection:

  • Visual checks: seal, tamper marks, scratches, dents.
  • Weight checks: verification against invoice specs.
  • Purity checks: hallmark/assay verification where required.
If verification fails (seal broken, mismatch, altered item), the return may be rejected and item may be shipped back (shipping may be chargeable).

6) Refund method & timeline

  • Mode: Refund to original payment method (UPI/Card/Netbanking) or bank transfer as per record.
  • Timeline: After acceptance, refunds are typically processed in 5–10 business days (bank timelines vary).
  • Cash purchases: May require bank details or store-credit if permitted by partner policy.

7) Deductions / charges (important for gold & silver)

Because metal prices fluctuate and items may involve making/handling costs, refunds may include deductions such as:

  • Making charges (for ornaments) if not refundable as per invoice.
  • Packaging/handling charges (if applicable).
  • Assay/purity check fee (if required due to dispute/verification).
  • Shipping / pickup cost if return is not due to our error.
  • Price fluctuation adjustment: In some cases, refund is based on prevailing rate at return-acceptance time (declare on invoice if used).
Best practice: clearly mention on invoice whether refund uses purchase rate or prevailing rate. Keep it consistent across partner shops.

8) Cancellations

  • Before dispatch/processing: Usually eligible for full refund.
  • After dispatch: Cancellation may not be possible; you may need to follow the return process after delivery.
  • Custom/made-to-order items: Often non-cancellable once work has started.

9) Damaged, missing, or incorrect items

  • Report within 24–48 hours with unboxing video/photos if possible.
  • Do not use the item; keep packaging and invoice.
  • We may offer replacement, exchange, or refund depending on verification.

10) Exchanges

  • Exchange is subject to item condition, verification, and stock availability.
  • For metal price differences, additional amount or partial refund may apply.
  • Ornament exchanges may include making charges difference.

11) Non-returnable items

Unless defective/incorrect, the following are typically non-returnable:

  • Items with broken seals/tampered packaging (bullion/coins/bars).
  • Custom engraved or made-to-order ornaments.
  • Items marked “Final Sale / Non-Returnable” on invoice/product page.
  • Used, altered, or damaged items (not due to transit issue).

12) Chargebacks / disputes

If you file a chargeback while a return/refund is in progress, we may pause processing until the dispute is resolved. Please contact support first so we can help faster.
