However, the Company takes product authenticity seriously and will investigate all complaints. Sellers found to be selling counterfeit or misrepresented products will be immediately delisted and may face legal action.

6.1 Commission Structure

The Company charges a commission on each successfully completed Order. The commission rate varies by product category and may be updated from time to time with prior notice to Sellers. Commission rates are displayed clearly in the Seller Dashboard. There are no hidden charges. The commission invoice is provided to the Seller with each settlement.

6.2 Payment Gateway & Processing

All payments are processed through secure, PCI-DSS compliant third-party payment gateways. The Company does not store complete payment card information. Buyers may pay using debit/credit cards, UPI, net banking, wallets, and EMI options. In the event of payment failure, the amount will not be deducted. If deducted erroneously, it will be refunded within 7 business days.

6.3 Seller Payouts & Settlement Cycle

Seller payouts are processed within 2 to 3 business days from the date of confirmed delivery. Payments are transferred directly to the Seller's registered and verified bank account. The Company reserves the right to hold settlements in cases of active disputes, suspected fraud, or regulatory investigation.

6.4 TCS Deduction

As mandated by Section 52 of the CGST Act, 2017, the Company deducts 1% TCS (Tax Collected at Source) from the net value of each transaction before disbursing the Seller's payout. A TCS certificate is made available to each Seller monthly through the Seller Dashboard, which can be used to claim credit against their GST liability.

7.1 Order Confirmation

An Order is considered confirmed once the Buyer receives an order confirmation email/SMS and the Seller receives an order notification via the Seller Dashboard. The Company acts as an intermediary and facilitates the transaction. The contract of sale is between the Buyer and the Seller; the Company is not a party to this contract.

7.2 Shipping & Delivery

Sellers are responsible for packaging and handing over orders to the designated logistics partner within the committed dispatch window. Estimated delivery timelines vary by location and are displayed at checkout. The Company is not liable for delays caused by logistics partners, natural calamities, government restrictions, or Force Majeure events.

7.3 Non-Delivery & Lost Shipments

In the event that an Order is not delivered within the maximum promised timeline, Buyers may raise a 'Non-Delivery' complaint through the Platform. The Company will investigate with the logistics partner and initiate a refund or re-shipment as appropriate. Lost-in-transit orders are covered under the Company's Logistics Protection Policy.

8.1 Return Policy Overview

Return requests must be initiated within the return window specified at the time of purchase (typically 7 days from delivery date). Not all products are eligible for returns; non-returnable items are clearly marked on the product page.

8.2 Valid Reasons for Return

• Product received is significantly different from the description or images on the listing.
• Product received is defective, damaged during transit, or has a manufacturing defect.
• Wrong size delivered, not matching the ordered size.
• Wrong product delivered, meaning a different item than what was ordered.
• Product received is incomplete (missing parts, accessories, or components).

8.3 The Clothes Bazzar Verified Return System

To protect Sellers from fraudulent returns, Clothes Bazzar operates a multi-layer Verified Return System:

• Video-Verified Pickup: The return courier captures an unboxing video at the Buyer's doorstep at the time of pickup.
• Tamper-Evident Packaging: Each dispatched order carries a unique QR-coded tamper seal. A broken or missing seal at return triggers an automatic investigation.
• Warehouse Quality Check (QC): Returned items are inspected at the returns processing centre before a refund is approved.
• Mismatch Detection: If the returned product does not match the original ordered item, the return is rejected and the Seller is protected.
• Buyer Return History: Buyers with a pattern of fraudulent return activity are flagged, restricted, and potentially banned.

8.4 Refund Processing

Approved refunds are processed within 5 to 7 business days to the original payment method. For Cash on Delivery orders, refunds are credited to the Buyer's bank account or a Platform wallet as designated. Seller payouts for returned orders are adjusted in the subsequent settlement cycle.

The following activities are strictly prohibited and may result in immediate account suspension, permanent ban, and/or legal action:

• Creating fake accounts, impersonating another person or business, or providing false registration information.
• Manipulating product ratings, reviews, or feedback, including incentivizing fake reviews or suppressing legitimate negative reviews.
• Conducting transactions outside the Platform to evade commission payments.

Sellers retain ownership of their original product photographs and descriptions uploaded to the Platform but grant the Company a perpetual, royalty-free, worldwide, sub-licensable license to display, reproduce, and promote such content for the purpose of operating and marketing the Platform.

12.1 Internal Dispute Resolution

In the event of any dispute between a Buyer and a Seller, the Company will act as a neutral mediator and attempt to resolve the dispute through its internal dispute resolution mechanism. Both parties must submit their evidence (photographs, videos, correspondence) within 72 hours of the dispute being raised. The Company's decision on disputes resolved through this mechanism shall be final and binding on both parties.

12.2 Grievance Officer

The arbitration shall be conducted by a sole arbitrator. The seat of arbitration shall be Surat, Gujarat, India. The language of arbitration shall be English.

The Company operates as an e-commerce operator as defined under the CGST Act, 2017. Accordingly, the Company is required to collect TCS at the rate of 1% on the net value of taxable supplies made through the Platform. Sellers are responsible for their own GST compliance, including registration, filing, and payment of applicable GST on their supplies. The Company provides GST-compliant invoices, settlement statements, and TCS certificates to assist Sellers in meeting their tax obligations. The Company is not a tax advisor and Sellers are advised to consult a qualified CA for their specific tax requirements.

The Company reserves the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue any feature or aspect of the Platform at any time with or without prior notice. The Company may update these Terms at any time. Material changes will be communicated via registered email or a prominent notice on the Platform. Continued use of the Platform after such notification constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.

The Company may suspend or terminate any User account at its sole discretion for violation of these Terms, applicable laws, or for any other reason deemed necessary to protect the Platform, other Users, or third parties. Upon termination, the User's right to access the Platform ceases immediately. Outstanding Seller payouts for legitimate completed orders will be settled per the standard settlement cycle.

These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Republic of India. Subject to the arbitration clause in Section 12, the courts of Surat, Gujarat, India shall have exclusive jurisdiction over any disputes arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Platform. If any provision of these Terms is found to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect.
