Refund Policy

Refund, Replacement & Cancellation Policy
At Amrutika, we specialize in handmade, natural, and artisanal soaps crafted in small batches with care. Because our products are personal-care and hygiene items, we follow strict quality, safety, and compliance standards. This policy explains when refunds or replacements are allowed, when they are not, and how disputes are handled.

We request all customers to read this policy carefully before placing an order. By completing a purchase on our website, you agree to the terms outlined below.
1. Nature of Products
All soaps sold on our platform are:
- Handmade and batch-produced
- Intended for personal hygiene and skincare use
- Sealed and quality-checked before dispatch
Due to hygiene regulations and consumer safety norms, personal-care consumables cannot be resold once opened or used. This is the foundation of our refund and return policy.
2. No Return / No Refund on Opened or Used Products
For hygiene and safety reasons, we do not accept returns or issue refunds under the following circumstances:
- The soap has been opened, unsealed, used, or partially used
- The product shows signs of tampering or handling after delivery
- Dissatisfaction based on personal preference, including fragrance, texture, color, or suitability
- Allergic reactions or skin sensitivity due to individual skin types
