Overview and Scope
This Shipping and Delivery Policy governs all shipments made through the Clothes Bazzar platform for orders placed on clothesbazzar.in. It applies to all buyers and sellers transacting on the platform and covers domestic shipping within India.
Clothes Bazzar works with trusted third-party logistics partners to ensure reliable, trackable delivery of clothing orders across India. Sellers are responsible for packing orders correctly and handing them over to our designated logistics partner within the specified time frame.

Shipping Charges
For Buyers
Shipping charges for buyers are calculated at checkout based on the delivery pin code, order weight, and any applicable promotional offers. Shipping charges (if any) will be clearly displayed before payment confirmation.
- Free shipping may be offered on orders above a minimum value, as communicated on the platform from time to time.
- Shipping charges are non-refundable unless the return is due to a seller error (wrong or defective item).
- Cash on Delivery orders may attract an additional COD convenience fee as displayed at checkout.
For Sellers
Reverse logistics charges for return pickups are deducted from the seller's settlement when the return is approved due to seller fault. For buyer-initiated returns without seller fault, reverse logistics costs are borne by the platform.
Tracking Your Order
Every order on Clothes Bazzar is assigned a unique shipment tracking ID once it is dispatched. Buyers and sellers can track their orders in real time.
- Tracking updates are sent via SMS and email at each key milestone: dispatch, in-transit, out for delivery, and delivered.
- The tracking ID is available in the buyer's 'My Orders' section and in the seller's dashboard.
- In case of tracking discrepancies or delays, contact our support team with your order ID.
Failed Delivery and Re-attempts
If a delivery attempt is unsuccessful, our logistics partner will make up to 3 delivery attempts on consecutive business days.
- The buyer will be contacted via phone or SMS before each attempt.
- If all 3 attempts fail, the order will be returned to the seller (Return to Origin, RTO).
- In case of RTO, the buyer's refund will be processed after the order is received back by the seller and verified.
- RTO charges, if applicable, will be communicated in the seller's settlement statement.
