Returns and Refund Policy

LIPU MARKETING PRIVATE LIMITED (‘Company’ or ‘LIPU’) thanks you for shopping with us at https://lipu.in, and on our mobile & tablet applications (the “Platforms”). This Policy covers cancellation, return, cooling-off, buy-back and refund for purchases made on the Platforms.

About this Policy

Any claim for shopping cancellation, return, exchange or refund is dealt with under this Policy. The Company may change this Policy at any time without prior notice. Please review it periodically so you stay informed of updates.

1. Return and Refund Policy

1.1. In keeping with the Company’s goal of ensuring your satisfaction, this Return and Replacement Policy (the “Policy”), together with the terms of use, sets out the Company’s procedures for accepting product returns after a product has been delivered from a purchase on the Platforms. Any product return is governed by the terms set out under this Policy.

1.2. Independent Business Owners / Direct Sellers (“You”) are requested to read and understand these terms. If you do not agree, do not accept the terms of use and stop using the Platforms. By placing a product order on the Platforms you accept these terms without modification.

2. Terms of Return and Refund

2.1. The Company offers a “No Question Asked” Return and Refund Policy subject to the quality parameters and guidelines below. The standard return period is 30 days from delivery, unless a different period is stated on the product description page. No return or refund request is entertained beyond that period.

2.2. Before accepting shipment, ensure the packaging is not damaged or tampered. If the package is damaged or tampered, refuse delivery. We assure exchange, replacement or refund, as applicable, for such refused deliveries. Accepting a damaged or tampered shipment is entirely at your risk and the Company is not responsible for it.

2.3. If you are dissatisfied with a product, or if there are defects or deficiencies, you may request exchange, replacement or return on the Platforms subject to Clause 2.1. Visit Contact Us for help.

2.4. If you wish to cancel ordered products and request a full refund of the amount paid to the bank account / card / wallet used at the time of placing the order, the Company will consider the request subject to Clause 2.1 and cancel such order. The eligible refund is transferred to the same payment method / Fund Wallet used for the order, after deduction of business incentives (including TDS) earned, accumulated or paid by LIPU on the cancelled order and on subsequent orders made on or after that date by you or your sales network team.

2.5. If business / group incentive (including TDS) already earned or paid to you is more than the refund requested for the cancelled product, no refund is given, because you have already received an amount equal to or greater than the refund. The Company may recover any additional amount from you. This protects the business plan from abuse of the refund facility.

2.6. Clauses 2.4 and 2.5 do not apply to exchanges, or to delivery refused under Clause 2.2.
