We accept eligible returns within 7 days of delivery.

To be eligible for a return, the product must:

  • Be unused and in the same condition in which you received it

  • Be returned in its original packaging, where applicable

  • Include all original accessories, tags, or accompanying items, where applicable

  • Not show signs of damage, misuse, alteration, or wear caused after delivery

Certain products may not be eligible for return due to their nature. Please contact us before sending any product back if you are unsure whether your order is eligible.

2. How to Request a Return

To request a return, please contact us at contact@tulsimala.com within 7 days of receiving your order.

Please include:

  • Order number

  • Customer name

  • Product name

  • Reason for the return

  • Photographs of the product, if requested

Our team will review the request and let you know whether the return is eligible.

Please do not ship a product back before receiving return instructions from us.

If your return is approved, we will provide the appropriate return instructions and shipping address.

3. Refunds

Once the returned product is received, it will be inspected.

After inspection, we will notify you whether the refund has been approved or rejected.

If approved, the eligible refund will be processed to the original payment method, subject to the applicable payment provider's processing time.

Shipping charges are non-refundable.

For eligible returns where the customer is responsible for return shipping, the cost of return shipping will be borne by the customer and may be deducted from the refundable amount where applicable.

The time required for the refund to appear in your account may vary depending on your bank, card issuer, payment gateway, or other payment provider.

4. Sale and Discounted Products

Sale, discounted, promotional, or clearance products are not eligible for refunds unless otherwise stated at the time of purchase.

If a discounted product is received damaged, defective, or incorrect, please contact us within 7 days of delivery so that we can review the issue.

5. Exchanges

We accept exchanges primarily for products that are:

  • Damaged during delivery

  • Defective upon receipt

  • Incorrectly supplied by us

To request an exchange, please contact us within 7 days of receiving the order.

Please email contact@tulsimala.com with:

  • Order number

  • Product name

  • Description of the problem

  • Clear photographs of the product and packaging

  • Any other information reasonably requested by our support team

After reviewing the information, we will determine whether the product qualifies for an exchange.

If approved, we will provide instructions for returning the product and arrange a replacement, subject to product availability.

If the replacement product is unavailable, we may offer an appropriate alternative or refund, as applicable.

6. Damaged or Incorrect Products

Please inspect your order when it is delivered.

If you receive a product that appears damaged, defective, or different from what you ordered, contact us as soon as possible and within 7 days of delivery.

Please provide clear photographs of:

  • The product

  • The packaging

This information helps us investigate the issue with our shipping or fulfillment partners.

Due to the nature of certain products, some items may not be eligible for return or exchange.

This may include products that are:

  • Used, worn, altered, or damaged after delivery

  • Returned without the original packaging where required

  • Missing original accessories or components

  • Specifically identified as non-returnable on the product page

  • Sale, clearance, or promotional products, except where otherwise stated

  • Custom-made or made-to-order products, except where the product is defective, damaged, or incorrectly supplied

For hygiene, safety, or product-specific reasons, additional restrictions may apply to certain products.

If you are unsure whether a product is eligible for return, please contact us before placing a return request.

8. Return Shipping

Unless the return is due to a product being damaged, defective, or incorrectly supplied by us, the customer is responsible for the cost of returning the product.

Return shipping costs are generally non-refundable.

We recommend using a reliable and trackable shipping service when returning an item. We are not responsible for products lost or damaged while being returned until they are received by us.
