Returns & Refunds Policy

Effective Date: July 4, 2026

At Bombay Comfort Clothing, we want every customer to be satisfied with their purchase. If something isn't right, we're happy to work with you to resolve the issue in accordance with the policy below.

By placing an order through our website, you agree to this Returns & Refunds Policy.

1. Return Eligibility

Eligible items may be returned within 30 calendar days of the delivery date shown by the carrier's tracking information.

To qualify for a return, items must:

  • Be unworn, unused, and unwashed.
  • Be free of stains, odors, pet hair, smoke, or damage.
  • Include all original tags and packaging, when applicable.
  • Be in resalable condition.
  • Include proof of purchase or order number.

Bombay Comfort Clothing reserves the right to refuse returns that do not meet these conditions.

2. Non-Returnable Items

The following items are not eligible for return or refund unless required by applicable law:

  • Clearance or final sale items.
  • Gift cards.
  • Digital products.
  • Personalized or custom-made products.
  • Products marked as non-returnable at the time of purchase.
  • Personal care items, including soaps or other hygiene-related products, once opened or used.
  • Any item returned in an unsanitary condition.

3. Damaged, Incorrect, or Defective Orders

If you receive an item that is damaged during shipping, defective, or incorrect, please contact us within 7 calendar days of delivery.

Your request should include:

  • Your order number.
  • A description of the issue.
  • Clear photographs of:
    • The product.
    • The packaging.
    • Any visible damage.
    • The shipping label, if applicable.

We may, at our discretion:

  • Replace the item.
  • Issue a refund.
  • Issue store credit.
  • Offer another reasonable resolution.

Failure to report shipping damage within the required time frame may limit available remedies.

4. Return Authorization

Before returning any merchandise, customers must contact our customer service team to obtain return instructions.

Unauthorized returns may be refused or returned to the sender.

Obtaining return instructions does not guarantee approval of a refund.

5. Return Shipping

Unless the return is the result of our error or a confirmed defective product:

  • Customers are responsible for return shipping costs.
  • Original shipping charges are non-refundable.
  • Expedited shipping charges are non-refundable after the order has shipped.

We recommend using a trackable shipping service.

Bombay Comfort Clothing is not responsible for returned packages lost or damaged during return transit.

6. Inspection of Returned Merchandise

All returned merchandise is inspected upon receipt.

If a returned item does not satisfy the conditions of this policy, we may:

  • Decline the refund.
  • Return the merchandise to the customer at the customer's expense.
  • Issue only a partial refund where permitted by law and appropriate based on the item's condition.

Our determination regarding the condition of returned merchandise will be made in good faith after inspection.

7. Refund Processing

Once an approved return has been received and inspected, refunds will generally be processed within 5–10 business days.

Refund timing thereafter depends on your financial institution or payment provider.

Refunds will ordinarily be issued to the original payment method used for the purchase.

If the original payment method is unavailable, Bombay Comfort Clothing may, where legally permitted, issue store credit or another mutually agreed-upon refund method.

8. Exchanges

We currently offer exchanges only for:

  • Incorrect items shipped.
  • Defective merchandise.
  • Size exchanges, subject to inventory availability.

If the requested replacement is unavailable, we may issue a refund or store credit at our discretion.

9. Refused Deliveries and Undeliverable Packages

Orders refused by the customer or returned due to an incorrect shipping address provided by the customer may be subject to:

  • Return shipping charges.
  • Carrier fees.
  • Restocking fees where permitted by law.

Original shipping charges are not refundable once an order has shipped.

Customers are responsible for ensuring that shipping information is accurate before submitting an order.

10. Order Cancellations

Orders may only be canceled before fulfillment begins.

Once an order has entered processing, fulfillment, or shipment, cancellation cannot be guaranteed.

If cancellation is no longer possible, the order will be subject to this Returns & Refunds Policy.

11. Fraud Prevention

To protect both our customers and our business, Bombay Comfort Clothing reserves the right to investigate any refund request that appears unusual, excessive, fraudulent, or abusive.

We reserve the right to:

  • Request additional information to verify ownership of an order.
  • Limit or deny returns where there is evidence of policy abuse.
  • Decline requests involving altered, substituted, or intentionally damaged merchandise.
  • Refuse service where permitted by applicable law to individuals who repeatedly abuse our return process.

Nothing in this section limits any rights provided under applicable consumer protection laws.

12. Chargebacks

We encourage customers to contact us before initiating a payment dispute or chargeback so we have an opportunity to resolve any concerns.

Where a chargeback is initiated after merchandise has been delivered or services have been provided, Bombay Comfort Clothing reserves the right to submit all relevant evidence in response to the payment processor or issuing financial institution, including but not limited to:

  • Order confirmations.
  • Shipping records.
  • Carrier tracking information.
  • Delivery confirmation.
  • Customer communications.
  • Photographs.
  • Return records.
  • Fraud detection information.
  • IP address and device information collected during checkout, where legally permitted.

Fraudulent or abusive chargebacks may result in future orders being declined and other actions permitted by law.

13. Limitation of This Policy

This policy applies only to purchases made directly through the official Bombay Comfort Clothing website.

Products purchased through third-party retailers, marketplaces, or authorized resellers are subject to the return policies of those sellers.

14. Changes to This Policy

Bombay Comfort Clothing reserves the right to update or modify this Returns & Refunds Policy at any time without prior notice.

The version posted on our website at the time of purchase will generally govern that transaction unless otherwise required by law.
