By browsing, accessing, registering an account, or purchasing merchandise from our website or boutique showroom, you explicitly consent to be bound by these Terms and Conditions, alongside our Privacy Policy.
User Eligibility & Account Responsibilities
To register an account or conclude financial transactions on our platform:
- You must be at least 18 years of age and legally competent to enter into binding contracts under the Indian Contract Act, 1872.

Handicraft Characteristics & Digital Color Disclaimer
Our silk, Kanjeevaram, Banarasi, chanderi, organza, and handloom cotton sarees are handcrafted by master artisans across India. Because of their handmade nature, please note the following:
- Handloom Nuances: Subtle irregularities in weaving, minor slubs in pure silk threads, uneven zari density, or hand-block dye variations are hallmarks of authentic hand-crafted textiles and are not considered manufacturing defects.
- Screen & Lighting Variations: Saree colors displayed on computer monitors or mobile screens may show slight variations compared to the physical fabric due to device display calibrations, studio strobe lighting, and screen color gamuts (typically within a standard 5%–10% perceptual range).
- Blouse Piece Inclusions: Unless explicitly stated otherwise, our sarees include an unstitched 80cm–100cm running blouse piece. Blouse stitching or fall-pico services are custom requests.
Pricing, GST & Invoicing
All prices listed on our digital storefront are in Indian Rupees (INR, ₹):
- Taxes: Displayed product prices include applicable statutory Goods & Services Tax (GST) as prescribed by the Government of India.
- Price Accuracy: While we endeavor to ensure all pricing information is accurate, typographical or system errors may occasionally arise. If a saree is inadvertently listed at an incorrect price, we reserve the right to decline or cancel the affected order and issue a full refund.
- Invoice: A valid tax invoice with itemized GST breakdown will accompany every physical shipment and be emailed to your registered address.
Orders, Payment & Acceptance
We provide multiple flexible, secured payment avenues:
- Online Payments: Powered by RBI-authorized payment aggregators (Razorpay), supporting Credit Cards, Debit Cards, Net Banking, UPI (Google Pay, PhonePe, Paytm), and major wallets.
- Cash on Delivery (COD): Available for eligible domestic PIN codes up to specified order limits. For high-value silk or bridal orders, an advance token or telephonic OTP confirmation may be required prior to dispatch.
- Order Confirmation: An order is deemed confirmed once you receive an automated confirmation email and SMS with your unique Order ID.
