Cancellation & Refund Policy

CANCELLATION & REFUND POLICY

Last Updated: 1 September 2026

Welcome to Diaita – The Way of Healthy Living.

This Cancellation & Refund Policy explains the circumstances under which an order placed through www.diaita.com may be cancelled and when a refund may be provided.

Because Diaita sells food products, certain restrictions apply to cancellations, returns and refunds in order to maintain food safety, hygiene, quality and consumer protection standards.


1. ORDER CANCELLATION BEFORE DISPATCH

A customer may request cancellation of an order before the order has been processed for dispatch.

Cancellation requests can be submitted through:

Email: [Customer Support Email]
Phone: [Customer Support Number]

A cancellation request will be considered only if the order has not already been processed, packed or dispatched.

Once an order has been packed or dispatched, cancellation may no longer be possible.


2. CANCELLATION AFTER DISPATCH

Once an order has been dispatched, the customer generally cannot cancel the order through the website.

This is because Diaita products are food products and may have specific food-safety, hygiene, shelf-life and storage requirements.

If the order has already been dispatched, the customer may receive the order and, where applicable, raise a complaint under the Return / Replacement provisions of this policy if the product is damaged, defective, incorrect, spoiled, tampered with or otherwise not in conformity with the order.


3. FOOD PRODUCT — SEALED PACKAGING POLICY

IMPORTANT

Because Diaita sells food products, food products are not eligible for cancellation, return or refund merely because the customer has changed their mind, does not like the product, ordered the wrong product, or no longer wants the product after delivery.

Once the food package/seal has been opened by the customer:

The product will generally not be eligible for cancellation, return or refund for change-of-mind or preference-based reasons.

This includes situations where:

  • The customer does not like the taste.

  • The customer does not like the flavour.

  • The customer ordered the wrong product.

  • The customer ordered the wrong quantity.

  • The customer no longer wants the product.

  • The customer changed their mind after delivery.

  • The customer opened the package and subsequently decided not to consume the product.

  • The customer opened the product packaging and then requested a refund for personal preference.

  • The product has been opened, used, consumed or partially consumed without an alleged product-quality or safety issue.

Reason for this restriction

Once a food product's sealed packaging has been opened, Diaita cannot reliably verify whether the product has remained in the original hygienic, safe and controlled condition in which it was supplied.

Accordingly, an opened food product cannot ordinarily be returned to inventory or resold, and a refund will not be provided solely because the customer has changed their mind or is dissatisfied with personal taste or preference.


4. SEALED PRODUCT RETURN / REFUND

If a customer receives a food product that is eligible for a return or replacement because of a genuine issue, Diaita may require the product and its packaging to remain sealed and available for inspection wherever reasonably possible.

Customers should contact Diaita before opening or consuming the product if they believe that the product received is:

  • Incorrect

  • Damaged

  • Tampered with

  • Leaking

  • Expired

  • Apparently spoiled

  • Missing

  • Different from the product ordered


5. EXCEPTIONS — DEFECTIVE, DAMAGED OR UNSAFE PRODUCTS

The sealed-package restriction does not prevent a customer from reporting a genuine product issue.

If a customer receives a product that is:

  • Defective

  • Damaged during delivery

  • Incorrectly supplied

  • Tampered with

  • Spoiled

  • Contaminated

  • Expired

  • Apparently unsafe for consumption

  • Not of the characteristics or features advertised or agreed upon

the customer should contact Diaita customer support as soon as reasonably possible.

Diaita will review the complaint and may provide an appropriate remedy, including replacement or refund, where the complaint is verified and the remedy is applicable under the circumstances and applicable law.

Nothing in this policy is intended to exclude or restrict any consumer right or remedy that cannot legally be excluded.


6. DO NOT CONSUME A SUSPECT PRODUCT

If a product appears to be spoiled, contaminated, tampered with, damaged or otherwise unsafe:

DO NOT CONSUME THE PRODUCT.

Please retain the product and its packaging and contact Diaita immediately.

For food-safety complaints, Diaita may request:

  • Order number

  • Product photographs

  • Packaging photographs

  • Batch/Lot number

  • Best-before/expiry information

  • Photographs of the seal

  • Unboxing photographs/video

  • Description of the issue

  • Other information reasonably required for investigation


7. WRONG PRODUCT RECEIVED

If Diaita delivers a product that is different from the product ordered, please contact customer support promptly.

Where the wrong product has been supplied, Diaita may arrange:

  • Replacement with the correct product; or

  • Refund of the applicable amount; or

  • Another appropriate resolution.

Customers should not open or consume a wrongly delivered food product before contacting Diaita wherever reasonably possible.


8. DAMAGED OR LEAKING PRODUCT

If a food package arrives visibly damaged or leaking, customers should:

  1. Avoid consuming the product.

  2. Take photographs of the package.

  3. Take photographs of the product and shipping package.

  4. Contact Diaita customer support.

  5. Provide the Order ID and requested information.

Diaita may investigate the issue with the relevant delivery partner and provide an appropriate replacement or refund where applicable.


9. TAMPERED PACKAGING

If the customer receives a package where the seal appears broken, opened or tampered with:

The customer should not consume the product.

The customer should immediately contact Diaita and provide photographs/videos of the package and seal.

Diaita may investigate the matter and, where the complaint is verified, provide an appropriate replacement, refund or other remedy.


10. EXPIRY / SPOILAGE / FOOD SAFETY COMPLAINT

If the customer believes that a product is expired, spoiled or otherwise unsafe, the customer must not consume it.

The customer should contact Diaita as soon as possible with:

  • Order ID

  • Product name

  • Batch/Lot number

  • Expiry/Best Before information

  • Photographs

  • Description of the issue

Diaita may investigate the complaint and provide an appropriate resolution where applicable.


11. CUSTOMER CHANGE OF MIND

Food products purchased from Diaita are generally not eligible for cancellation, return or refund solely because the customer changes their mind after delivery.

Examples include:

  • “I don't want it anymore.”

  • “I ordered it by mistake.”

  • “I don't like the flavour.”

  • “I don't like the taste.”

  • “I found another product.”

  • “I changed my mind after opening the package.”

Where the product has been opened, used or consumed, a refund will generally not be available for these reasons.

This restriction does not apply to genuine product defects, incorrect products, safety concerns or other situations where a remedy is required under applicable law.


12. PARTIALLY CONSUMED PRODUCTS

Once a food product has been opened or partially consumed, Diaita will generally not accept a return or refund request based solely on taste, preference or change of mind.

However, if the customer alleges a genuine food-safety, contamination or product-defect issue, the customer should immediately stop consuming the product and contact Diaita.

Diaita may request photographs, batch information, packaging and other relevant information to investigate the complaint.


13. REFUND ELIGIBILITY

A refund may be considered in circumstances including:

  • Order cancelled before dispatch, where cancellation is accepted.

  • Wrong product delivered.

  • Product unavailable after order confirmation.

  • Verified damaged product.

  • Verified defective product.

  • Verified spoiled or unsafe product.

  • Verified delivery/fulfilment error.

  • Other circumstances where refund is required under applicable law.

Refund eligibility will be determined based on the specific circumstances of the order and applicable law.


14. NON-REFUNDABLE SITUATIONS

Subject to applicable consumer rights, refunds will generally not be provided for:

  • Change of mind after delivery.

  • Personal taste preference.

  • Dislike of flavour.

  • Incorrect product selected by the customer.

  • Incorrect quantity selected by the customer.

  • Customer no longer wanting the product.

  • Opened food packaging where there is no genuine product defect or safety issue.

  • Used or consumed food products where the complaint is based only on preference.

  • Damage caused by improper storage after delivery.

  • Failure to follow product storage instructions.

  • Product deterioration caused by customer mishandling after delivery.

  • Failure to collect/accept delivery due to customer-related reasons, except where otherwise required by applicable law.


15. REFUND REQUEST PROCESS

To request a refund, contact:

Email: [Customer Support Email]
Phone: [Customer Support Number]

Please provide:

  • Order ID

  • Customer name

  • Registered mobile number

  • Product name

  • Reason for refund

  • Photographs/videos, where applicable

  • Batch/Lot number, where applicable

  • Other information requested by Diaita

Diaita may review the order and supporting information before approving or rejecting a refund request.


16. REFUND METHOD

Approved refunds will generally be processed through the original payment method used for the order, wherever technically possible.

For certain payment methods, refunds may be processed through another appropriate mechanism.

The time required for the amount to appear in the customer's account may depend on:

  • Payment gateway

  • Bank

  • Card issuer

  • UPI/payment provider

  • Other financial institution

Diaita will initiate an approved refund within the applicable processing timeframe.


17. CASH ON DELIVERY ORDERS

For Cash on Delivery orders, where a refund is approved, Diaita may request appropriate bank-account, UPI or other payment details required to process the refund.

Customers should provide accurate refund details.

Diaita will not be responsible for delays caused by incorrect payment/refund information supplied by the customer.


18. SHIPPING CHARGES

Where a refund is approved because of a verified Diaita fulfilment error, defective product, wrong product, damaged product or another qualifying reason, applicable shipping charges may also be considered for refund as appropriate.

For customer-initiated cancellation or other non-qualifying situations, shipping charges may not be refundable.

Any such determination will remain subject to applicable law.


19. PROMOTIONAL / DISCOUNTED ORDERS

If an order was placed using:

  • Coupon code

  • Promotional discount

  • Bundle offer

  • Free-product offer

  • Free-shipping offer

the refund amount may be calculated based on the actual amount paid and the applicable promotional terms.

Promotional benefits may not be reinstated after cancellation or refund unless specifically stated.


20. PARTIAL REFUNDS

Where only part of an order qualifies for a refund, Diaita may process a refund only for the affected product or applicable amount.

For example, if one product in a multi-product order is verified as damaged while the remaining products were correctly delivered, the refund may be limited to the affected product.


21. DUPLICATE PAYMENT

If a customer is charged more than once for the same order due to a payment-processing issue, the duplicate amount will be reviewed and, where verified, refunded through the applicable payment method.

Customers should provide the relevant transaction details when contacting Diaita.


22. ORDER CANCELLATION BY DIAITA

Diaita may cancel an order in circumstances including:

  • Product unavailability

  • Incorrect pricing due to a technical error

  • Delivery to a non-serviceable location

  • Payment failure

  • Suspected fraudulent activity

  • Incorrect or incomplete delivery information

  • Operational or logistics issues

  • Food-safety concerns

  • Other legitimate reasons

If payment has already been received for an order cancelled by Diaita, an applicable refund will be processed.


23. REFUND FOR DELIVERY FAILURE

If an order cannot be delivered because of a Diaita-related fulfilment issue, product unavailability or another circumstance for which a refund is appropriate, Diaita may process an applicable refund.

If delivery fails because the customer provided an incorrect address, incorrect contact details or repeatedly remained unavailable, the refund will be assessed according to the circumstances and applicable law.


24. FOOD SAFETY AND STORAGE

Once a product has been successfully delivered, the customer must follow the storage and handling instructions provided on the product packaging.

Diaita will generally not be responsible for deterioration caused by:

  • Incorrect storage

  • Exposure to excessive heat

  • Exposure to moisture

  • Failure to refrigerate where required

  • Improper handling

  • Opening or tampering with the product

  • Consumption after the applicable best-before/expiry period

This does not affect remedies relating to a defect or issue that existed before delivery or is otherwise covered by applicable law.


25. CONSUMER RIGHTS

This policy is intended to establish Diaita's standard cancellation and refund process for food products.

Nothing in this policy is intended to exclude, restrict or waive any consumer right or statutory remedy that cannot legally be excluded.

Under the Consumer Protection (E-Commerce) Rules, 2020, e-commerce entities are required to provide clear information concerning return, refund and related terms, and the rules address situations involving defective, deficient, spurious or incorrectly described goods.

Accordingly, the sealed-food-package restriction in this policy applies primarily to change-of-mind, preference-based or customer-caused return/refund requests and does not override applicable statutory consumer protections.


26. POLICY AGAINST ABUSE

Diaita may investigate repeated, suspicious or potentially fraudulent refund claims.

Where there is evidence of:

  • False claims

  • Repeated fraudulent refund requests

  • Manipulation of products

  • Deliberate damage

  • False delivery claims

  • Abuse of promotional/refund systems

Diaita may take appropriate action, subject to applicable law.


27. CHANGES TO THIS POLICY

Diaita may update this Cancellation & Refund Policy from time to time to reflect:

  • Changes in products

  • Changes in business practices

  • Food-safety requirements

  • Payment processes

  • Delivery processes

  • Applicable laws and regulations

The latest version will be published on this page with the updated “Last Updated” date.
