We offer FREE return pickup for all approved returns — you never have to worry about courier costs or dropping packages off. Just WhatsApp us and we handle the rest.
Important: We do not offer refunds to the original payment method. All valid returns are resolved via store credit or product exchange only.
1. Our Promise to You
At Navtara Organics, every product is handcrafted in small batches using pure, natural botanical ingredients. We take great pride in the quality of what we make — and we stand fully behind every item we send out.
If something is not right with your order, we want to fix it. This policy explains exactly how we handle returns, exchanges, and store credit — written in plain language with no hidden clauses.
We are a small, passionate team. If anything goes wrong, please reach out to us on WhatsApp first — most issues are resolved within hours without a formal return process.
2. Return Eligibility
To be eligible for a return, all of the following conditions must be met:
• Return request is raised within 15 days of your delivery date
• Product is completely unused, unopened, and in its original condition
• Original packaging, seals, labels, and any inserts are fully intact
• You have your order number or proof of purchase ready
• The item is not listed under our non-returnable items (see Section 3)
• You contact us via WhatsApp or phone before sending anything back
The 15-day window starts from the date your order was delivered — not the date you received our dispatch confirmation. Please check your order as soon as it arrives.
3. Non-Returnable Items
The following items cannot be returned, exchanged, or credited under any circumstances:
• Products that have been opened, unsealed, or used in any way
• Products purchased during a sale, at a discounted price, or as part of any promotion
• Custom or personalized orders made specifically to your request
The following items are fully returnable under this policy (subject to eligibility conditions in Section 2):
• Unopened, sealed products purchased at full price
• Gift cards — not returnable, but valid for 12 months from date of issue and transferable
If you are unsure whether a product is eligible before initiating a return, just WhatsApp us and we will confirm within a few hours.
4. How to Initiate a Return
All returns must be approved by our team before you send anything back. The process is simple:
Step 1 — WhatsApp or Call Us
Message us on WhatsApp at [EDIT: +91 6376270565] or call us during business hours (Monday–Saturday, 10 AM–6 PM IST). Tell us:
• Your name and order number
• The product(s) you wish to return
• The reason for the return
Step 2 — We Review Your Request
Our team will respond within 1 business day. If your return is approved, we will share the next steps and schedule a free pickup from your address.
Step 3 — Free Pickup Arranged
We will schedule a courier pickup from your doorstep at a time convenient for you — completely free of charge. Please pack the product securely in the original packaging before the pickup arrives. Do not use the product box itself as the outer shipping package — place it inside a mailer bag or a plain box.
Step 4 — We Receive & Inspect
Once the product is returned to us, we inspect it within 1–2 business days and notify you of the outcome by WhatsApp or email.
Returns sent without prior approval from our team will be refused and returned to sender. Please always contact us first.
5. What You Will Receive
We do not offer refunds to the original payment method. All approved returns are resolved in one of the following two ways — your choice:
Option A — Store Credit / Gift Card
We issue store credit equal to the full value of the returned product(s). Your credit is valid for 12 months from the date of issue and can be used on any Navtara Organics purchase — including sale items. Store credit is issued within 2 business days of approving your return.
Option B — Product Exchange
We replace your returned product with a different product of your choice, subject to availability. How exchanges work:
• If the replacement product is the same price — no extra charge
• If the replacement is higher in value — you pay only the difference
• If the replacement is lower in value — the balance is issued as store credit
• Exchange shipments are dispatched within 7–10 business days of receiving your return
If your preferred exchange product is out of stock, we will offer you the next best alternative or issue store credit instead.
6. Situations We Always Resolve — No Questions Asked
In the following situations, we take complete responsibility and arrange a resolution at absolutely zero cost to you — no forms, no long waits, just a quick WhatsApp message to us:
Product Arrived Damaged
If your product arrived cracked, broken, leaking, or physically damaged during transit, please:
• Take photographs of the outer packaging and the damaged product
• WhatsApp us the photos within 48 hours of delivery
We will immediately arrange a free replacement or issue full store credit — whichever you prefer.
Wrong Item Delivered
If you received a product different from what you ordered, contact us within 48 hours on WhatsApp with your order number and a photo of what you received. We will:
• Arrange a free pickup of the wrong item
• Dispatch the correct item at no additional cost
• Prioritize your replacement shipment
Allergic Reaction
We formulate every product with care and list all ingredients transparently. However, individual skin sensitivities vary. If you experience an allergic reaction:
• Stop using the product immediately
• Consult a doctor or dermatologist
• WhatsApp us with the product name, batch number (on the label), and a description of the reaction
We will review your case and arrange a full store credit or exchange. We may request a doctor's note for severe reactions. We are not liable for reactions arising from known pre-existing allergies to listed ingredients or failure to perform a patch test.
We strongly recommend performing a patch test before first use — apply a small amount to your inner wrist and wait 24 hours before full application.
Order Lost in Transit
If your order has not arrived within 15 business days of the dispatch date, please contact us on WhatsApp. We will:
• File a claim with our courier partner — this typically takes 3–5 business days to investigate
• Once confirmed lost, reship your order or issue full store credit — your choice
• Keep you updated throughout the process
7. Return Shipping — Always Free

10. Exchanges
We offer free exchanges on all eligible unused, unopened products within 15 days of delivery. Key things to know:
• Exchanges are subject to product availability at the time of request
• We will suggest alternatives if your first choice is out of stock
• You can exchange for a completely different product — not just the same item
• No exchange on opened, used, sale, or custom products
• Exchange shipments carry the same quality guarantee as your original order
We want you to love what you get from us. If you are unhappy with a product for any reason, just talk to us — we will always find a way to make it right.
11. Gifts & Gift Orders
If you received a Navtara Organics product as a gift and wish to return or exchange it:
• Share the order number from the original purchaser or your gift receipt with us on WhatsApp
• Store credit or exchange will be issued in your name — the original purchaser will not be informed
• The same eligibility conditions apply — product must be unused and in original packaging
If the order was not marked as a gift at the time of purchase, the store credit will be issued to the original purchaser's account.

We resolve the vast majority of concerns quickly and amicably. If you feel your issue has not been addressed fairly:
