Refund & Cancellation Policy – Book Haat

Last Updated: 20 June 2026

This Refund and Cancellation Policy governs all purchases made through Book Haat (Book Haat Books & Stationery). By placing an order on our Website, the Customer agrees to the terms and conditions stated below.

1. Order Cancellation

1.1 Cancellation Requests

Once an order is successfully placed and payment is completed, cancellation requests will be considered only in case of a genuine and valid reason, subject to verification and approval by Book Haat.

1.2 Cancellation Timing

Customers must submit cancellation requests as soon as possible after placing the order.

1.3 Shipped Orders

Orders that have already been shipped, dispatched, handed over to a courier partner, or are in transit cannot normally be cancelled.

1.4 Right to Approve or Reject

Book Haat reserves the right to approve, reject, or review any cancellation request at its sole discretion, subject to applicable consumer protection laws.

2. Refund Terms

2.1 Approved Refunds

If a cancellation or refund request is approved by Book Haat, the refund shall be processed to the original payment method used during the transaction unless otherwise required by law.

2.2 Processing Charges

Payment gateway, transaction processing, banking, and administrative charges may be deducted where applicable.

A deduction of up to 2.6% of the total transaction amount may be applied towards such charges.

2.3 Refund Processing Timeline

Approved refunds are generally initiated within 5–7 working days.

However, the actual credit of funds depends upon banks, UPI providers, card networks, payment gateways, and other financial institutions.

2.4 Investigation & Verification

Certain refund requests may require additional investigation, verification, transaction reconciliation, courier confirmation, fraud-prevention review, return verification, or payment gateway validation.

In such cases, processing may take up to 10–15 business days or longer where reasonably necessary.

Customers agree to provide any information reasonably requested by Book Haat, including but not limited to:

  • Order details

  • Screenshots

  • Payment confirmations

  • Bank statements

  • Courier information

  • Identity verification documents (if required)

Failure to provide requested information may delay the refund process.

2.5 Refund Delay Disclaimer

A delay in refund processing, investigation, payment gateway reconciliation, bank settlement, or credit of funds does not mean that the refund amount has been lost, withheld, rejected, or permanently failed.

Customers acknowledge that delays may occur due to:

  • Banking procedures

  • Payment gateway processing

  • Technical issues

  • Public holidays

  • Settlement cycles

  • Verification requirements

  • Regulatory reviews

  • Courier investigations

  • Other circumstances beyond the reasonable control of Book Haat

2.6 Customer Cooperation

Customers agree to reasonably cooperate with Book Haat whenever verification or investigation is required.

Book Haat may keep a refund request under review until the required information has been received and verified.

2.7 Limitation of Liability

Book Haat shall not be liable for delays caused by banks, payment gateways, courier companies, financial institutions, technical failures, regulatory processes, or other third-party services involved in processing the refund.

2.8 Final Determination

Refund eligibility, verification requirements, investigation outcomes, and refund approval decisions shall be determined by Book Haat, subject to applicable laws.

2.9 Wrong Product Delivered

If Book Haat verifies that an incorrect product/book has been delivered, the Customer may be required to return the incorrect item in its original condition.

The refund shall be processed only after the returned parcel has been received and successfully verified at the Book Haat warehouse. Refunds will not be initiated solely based on the customer's claim or photographs unless otherwise determined by Book Haat.

If the returned parcel is found to contain a different item, incomplete contents, used, damaged, altered, or tampered products, Book Haat reserves the right to reject or partially approve the refund request, subject to applicable consumer protection laws.

3. Shipping & Return to Origin (RTO) Policy

3.1 Cancellation After Shipment

Once an order has been shipped, dispatched, or handed over to a courier partner, cancellation is generally not permitted.

3.2 Customer-Caused RTO Cases

If a shipment is returned to Book Haat because:

  • The customer refuses delivery;

  • The customer is unavailable;

  • Courier delivery attempts fail repeatedly;

  • The customer provides an incorrect or incomplete address;

  • The customer fails to respond to courier communication;

the shipment may be treated as an RTO (Return to Origin) case.

3.3 Refund in RTO Cases

In RTO cases caused by customer-related reasons, Book Haat reserves the right to deduct:

  • Original shipping charges;

  • Return shipping charges;

  • COD charges (if applicable);

  • Payment gateway charges;

  • Packaging and handling costs;

  • Other operational expenses reasonably incurred.

The remaining eligible amount, if any, may be refunded after deduction of applicable charges.

3.4 Re-dispatch of RTO Orders

Customers wishing to receive the order again may be required to pay fresh shipping charges and any applicable re-dispatch costs before the order is re-shipped.

4. Non-Refundable Situations

Refunds may not be available in the following situations:

  • Digital products, if any, once delivered.

  • Requests made after unreasonable delay without valid justification.

  • Abuse of refund policies.

  • Fraudulent transactions or misuse of services.

Book Haat shall make reasonable efforts to resolve all refund, cancellation, payment, and delivery-related concerns fairly and within a reasonable timeframe.

Customers acknowledge that certain matters may require coordination with courier partners, payment gateways, banks, suppliers, publishers, logistics providers, or other third parties, which may result in additional processing time.

The Customer agrees not to assume fraud, misappropriation of funds, wrongful retention of money, service failure, or bad faith solely on the basis of a processing delay where Book Haat continues to actively investigate, verify, coordinate, or process the matter.

Nothing in this Policy shall restrict any rights available to consumers under applicable law.
