Return Cancellation Policy
At Riveram.in we intend to make your shopping experience as flawless as possible while selecting and buying your favourite products.
Despite our best efforts to keep our customers happy, there are times when that is possible and you might feel the need to return your product for any circumstances beyond your or our control.
We have listed everything below about our Cancellation and Return policy so that in case you do decide to cancel your order or seek refunds, you do not face a problem.
Pre-Shipment Cancellations
Q: Can I cancel my order in case I change my mind after ordering?
A: Yes, you can choose to cancel all Non-Ready to Ship products only.
- Pre-Shipment order Cancelation can be done within 24 hours of placing an order. You either cancel your order through the website my account or send an email at
For Website Order cancelation: nadeem@riveram.in
Note: Once 24 hours have passed the cancelation option will not be available for non-ready-to-ship products. - We will initiate a 100% refund of your money and a confirmation of the same will be sent to you via email. If you want to replace with other products/categories get in touch with our support team via email.
- Please note that Ready To Ship orders are not eligible for cancellations as once orders are received they go under the order fulfilment process.
Q: Why a "24 Hour" deadline for cancelation?
A: As soon as your order is confirmed, action is initiated at our end. The process of picking, packaging, customizing and logistics start, and the ordered product in most cases has already passed through a couple of phases.
Q: And what if I cancel after 24 hours of ordering?
A: Well, we have a provision for that too but do remember - orders cancelled post 24 hours of confirmation are dealt with on a case-to-case basis by our Customer Care team depending on the degree of process completion.
Please note that it takes a maximum of 2 working days for us to cancel your order request, and once your order is cancelled we will send you a notification via email.
Q: Could there be a delay at Riveram because of "unforeseen circumstances"?
A: We try our best to assure that your ordered products are shipped out to you in the promised time, but at times there are chances of delay in processing due to unavailability of stock, or other unavoidable circumstances. In such a situation, we will send you a formal communication requesting you to:
- Accept a Store Credit of equivalent value, which you may use to purchase an alternate product.
- Opt to receive a refund of your money.
Q: But if I am unable to find an alternative product on your website/store?
A: In such cases, we ensure that a complete refund (inclusive of the product cost and shipping charges) is initiated at the earliest sans any deductions. We also offer compensation by way of Store Credit or discount coupon depending upon the order value and delay in communication.
Q: Oops! I "missed" adding a critical detail while placing the order. Possibility of correcting it?
A: No worries. Such situations are often encountered when customers forget to:
- Update their complete shipping details.
- Update measurement attributes
- Verify or give their consent if required on certain pending notifications within the requested time
As a policy, we try and reach out to our esteemed customers via their registered e-mail addresses. In case of non-receipt of any response, we try and give them a call. If we do not get a response in 15 days, we issue a Non-refundable Store Credit against the cancellation of the order which the customers can use to place future orders with us. We share an update on the same via email as well.
Remember, we try and keep our customers posted at every stage of their order with us and it helps to have your inputs at the right time.

MORE DETAILS ABOUT REFUNDS
Q: I'm thinking about seeking a Refund. Are there any specific points to know?
A: The Refund will be initiated within 3 (business) days if you choose this option, which will be credited back to you as per your bank/credit card guidelines.
Q: And how long will the refund process take?
A: Payments and Transfers are dependent on Banks and Local Laws. We're still attempting to estimate the time it might take to get your funds reimbursed under:
| Mode Of Payment Refund | Resolution Time | Refund Mode |
| Credit Card | 10 business days from the Date of Initiation | Credit Card |
| Debit Card | 10 business days from the Date of Initiation | Debit Card |
| COD | 7-8 business days from the Date of Initiation | NEFT |
| DBD-HDFC | 7-8 business days from the Date of Initiation | NEFT |
Q: Are there any reasons there could be a delay at the Bank/Credit Card company end?
A:
- For transactions made using Debit/Credit cards, the time taken for refunds depends solely on the service provider.
- For customers transacting via Nationalized Banks, please expect a bit of delay in processing since they tend to have longer lead times.
- Please be apprised that Banks send an SMS to customers for a credit amount of more than INR 5000 only. In case you refund kindly less than INR 5000 checks your bank or credit card account confirms receipt of funds.
- In case you used a Coupon Code or a Store Credit to place your order, the refund will be made in the same form. No cash refunds can be made in such a case as per governing laws.
Q: What about charges levied by Banks, Credit Card companies, and Local Taxes?
A: Credit Card Fees:
Please note that Credit Card refunds involve an admin/credit card commission of 10% of the final order value (5% while accepting and 5% while refunding). This cost will be deducted from the value of the refund.
An alternate solution is a Riveram Store Credit, which nullifies the Credit Card Commission charge and therefore makes it possible for us to issue a Store Credit equivalent to the final accepted value of creditable funds.
Bank Transfers:
For orders placed using Bank Transfers, refunds would be issued only as Store Credits.
International Transaction Fees:
Cross Border or, International Transaction Fees, if any, charged by the respective bank of your credit or debit card will not be refunded. Please note these are hidden charges levied by your bank on you, and not by us. Customers must contact their bank for additional information on these charges.
Local Taxes:
The VAT / Custom Duty / Local Taxes / Import Duties are borne directly by the customer as per local laws, to be paid at the time of delivery as advised by the respective courier partner. We will not refund any such charges, if applicable during order delivery.
