Return, Replacement & Cancellation Policy

Chargisthan builds EV chargers to last — but if something arrives damaged, defective, or wrong, we make it right. This policy explains exactly when you can cancel, when we replace, when we refund, and how to raise a request in minutes.

Home / Return, Replacement & Cancellation

This policy covers products and services bought directly from Chargisthan — our AC and DC EV chargers, accessories, the Chargisthan app, and CPMS software subscriptions. It works alongside our Payment Terms & Conditions and the warranty supplied with your product. Because our chargers are often configured, delivered, and installed to order, our approach centres on replacing or repairing genuine issues rather than open-ended returns — while fully honouring your rights under the Consumer Protection Act, 2019.

1 Scope & principles

Two simple ideas guide everything below:

  • If it's our fault, we fix it. Damage in transit, a manufacturing defect, or the wrong item shipped is on us — we replace, repair, or refund.
  • Report early, with proof. Quick reporting and clear evidence (photos / an unboxing video) let us resolve your case fast and fairly.

Products bought through a distributor, reseller, or marketplace are subject to that seller's return policy in the first instance; the warranty still applies. This page governs purchases made directly from Chargisthan.

3 Eligible for replacement

We'll replace (or, at our option, repair) a product delivered directly by us if, on arrival, it is:

  • Damaged in transit — physical damage clearly caused during shipping.
  • Defective out of the box — a genuine manufacturing fault that stops the unit working as specified (dead-on-arrival).
  • The wrong item — a different model, rating, or variant than what your order confirmation lists.
  • Incomplete — missing a component or accessory listed on your invoice.

To qualify, tell us within 48 hours of delivery, keep the item unused and uninstalled, and share the supporting evidence described next.

4 The unboxing-video rule

For any transit-damage, defect, wrong-item, or missing-part claim, a clear unboxing video is the single most important piece of evidence — it lets us approve your replacement quickly and settle the transport claim with our courier.

🎥

Record one continuous, unedited video that shows the sealed outer package (with the shipping label visible), the full opening, and the condition of the product and its accessories. A short clip is enough — but please start it before you break the seal.

5 Seal & packaging condition

Keep everything as delivered until your request is resolved. For a replacement of an unused unit, we need the product in its original packaging with all accessories, manuals, and included cabling, and with tamper-evident seals intact where the issue isn't the packaging itself.

📦

If the outer box arrives visibly crushed, wet, or opened, note it with the delivery agent if possible, photograph it, and refuse or flag the parcel — this strengthens a transit-damage claim.

6 What we can't accept

To keep the policy fair for everyone, a replacement or return generally can't be offered when:

  • You've changed your mind, or ordered the wrong model / rating yourself.
  • The unit has been installed, energised, or used (unless the fault is a genuine defect covered by warranty).
  • The issue is reported after the 48-hour window with no supporting evidence.
  • There's no unboxing video for a transit-damage or missing-part claim.
  • Damage results from mishandling, incorrect installation, unauthorised modification, power surges, or external factors after delivery.
  • The product was bought from a third-party seller (raise it with that seller; warranty still applies).

7 Cancelling an order

You can cancel an order free of charge any time before it is dispatched from our facility — just contact us and we'll refund what you've paid.

  • Once an order has shipped, it can no longer be cancelled; if there's a genuine delivery issue, the replacement rules above apply.
  • For custom-built or custom-configured chargers and project orders, a cancellation before dispatch may be refunded less any non-recoverable costs already incurred (procured components, custom configuration, or logistics already booked). We'll always show you the breakdown.
  • Installation and site-work already carried out is billed for the work done.

8 Refunds & timelines

A refund is offered when a pre-dispatch order is cancelled, or when a confirmed defect or damage can't practically be replaced or repaired.

  • Approved refunds are made to the original payment method, typically within 7–10 business days of approval; your bank or gateway may add its own settlement time.
  • Where a purchase used an EMI scheme, cashback, or promotional benefit, the associated subsidy, gateway fee, or non-reversible cashback may be deducted from the refund.
  • Wallet and app refunds follow our Payment Terms.

9 Replacement process

Once you raise an eligible request, here's what happens:

STEP 1

Raise & verify

Send order details + photos / unboxing video. We confirm eligibility.

STEP 2

Pickup / inspect

We arrange pickup where needed and inspect the returned unit.

STEP 3

Approve

Verified issues are approved for replacement, repair, or refund.

STEP 4

Ship & close

Replacement dispatched, usually within 10–15 business days of approval.

ℹ️

If inspection shows the item isn't eligible under this policy, we'll explain why and, where a unit was collected, return it to you; return logistics for ineligible items may be chargeable.

10 Shipping & logistics

When a claim for transit damage, a defect, or a wrong / incomplete delivery is verified, Chargisthan bears the return and re-shipping cost. For requests that fall outside this policy (for example a change of mind), any pickup and delivery charges are borne by the customer.

11 Warranty vs. replacement

It helps to know the difference between the two remedies:

🔁

Replacement (this policy)

For issues found at delivery on an unused unit — reported within 48 hours with evidence.

🛡️

Warranty

For faults that appear during use within the warranty term — resolved by repair or replacement of parts under the warranty document.

If a charger develops a fault after installation, please raise a warranty / service request rather than a replacement request — our support team will guide you.

12 App & software subscriptions

Digital services work differently from physical goods. Chargisthan app credits, wallet top-ups, and CPMS software subscriptions are governed by our Payment Terms & Conditions: you can cancel future subscription renewals at any time, fees for a period already active are generally non-refundable, and unused non-promotional wallet balance is refundable on account closure.

13 How to raise a request

The fastest way is to email or WhatsApp our support team with everything ready:

  • Your order number and invoice / purchase receipt.
  • What's wrong, in one or two lines.
  • Photos and the unboxing video for damage / defect / wrong-item claims.
  • Your pickup address and preferred contact number.

We'll acknowledge your request, issue a reference number, and tell you the next step.

14 Changes to this policy

We may update this policy as our products, logistics partners, and regulations evolve. Material changes will be reflected in the "Last updated" date above. The version in force at the time of your purchase is the one that applies to that order. Nothing in this policy limits your statutory rights under the Consumer Protection Act, 2019 and related e-commerce rules.
