Each Benka piece is handmade, and many are poured in the colours you choose. That’s why we can’t accept returns for a change of mind. If something arrives damaged, defective or wrong, we’ll make it right. This policy follows the Consumer Protection Act, 2019 and the Consumer Protection (E-Commerce) Rules, 2020.
What isn’t returnable
- Products in perfect condition returned because of a change of mind or a different preference.
- Personalised, custom-colour and made-to-order pieces, including bouquets, hampers and bulk orders, unless they arrive damaged or defective.
- Candles that have already been lit or used.
- Small variations in shade, texture or finish. These are part of handmade work, and colours can look slightly different on screen.
Damaged, defective or wrong items
If your order arrives damaged (including melted or broken in transit), defective, incomplete or different from what you ordered:
- Tell us within 48 hours of delivery on WhatsApp +91 98203 03676 or at sarikasingh7782@gmail.com.
- Share your order number, clear photos of the product and the outer packaging, and an unboxing video if you recorded one.
- Keep the product and packaging until we confirm the next step.
Once we’ve verified the issue, usually within 2 working days, we’ll send a replacement at no extra cost. If a replacement isn’t possible, we’ll give you a full refund of the product price and any shipping charges you paid for it. You won’t need to return a damaged candle unless we ask you to.
