Here are some important & helpful guidelines on Returns –

Keeping in mind the very basic nature of every outfit/saree, our customers do appreciate that each outfit/saree is individually created, crafted and made to fit perfectly in accordance to measurements/Instructions provided by you once purchased. We respect the customer’s ability to support “No Return No Exchange” policy. Kindly be informed that we shall not be liable to refund or exchange any outfit/saree under any circumstances, neither do we provide any sort of guarantee for the same. Your statutory rights are not affected.

We do not provide any guarantee on Color/Fabric/Embroidery/Silk/Zari,etc. All goods are advised to be Dry Cleaned only, in case of fastening of colors and/or shrinking of Fabric in spite of Dry Clean, kindly note that we will not be responsible for the same as the Dry Clean process is not under our control.

Our garments are completely hand made using complex procedure of dyeing, surface ornamentation & stitching. Irregularities within product style may arise which adds to their inherent uniqueness. Owing to complex procedures of natural over dyeing and surface treatments some colors might run and some fabric might shrink.

 There is a possibility that two outfits altered for the same customer with the same measurement may not give the same fitting.

This may be due to the nature of the fabric & also different designers use different silhouette/fitting. Please note that we cannot guarantee a 100%, that fitting will be perfect as fitting preferences can differ from person to person. Should you require any alteration on your garment after delivery please get alternations from your local tailor or send it back to the store, to ensure that we are able to provide the best personalized fitting for yourself. Shipping cost & responsibility of sending product shall be borne by customer.

  • 1) Always email us first if you have a problem on info@mahikaa.in

Never send back a item without consulting with us. It’s very important that you DO NOT send the item back to us until you have verified with us and no credit or replacement shall be given on such items.

Please mark the items as defective returns and not for sale and declare a low nominal value.

For any complain / dissatisfaction with sizing and styling ( all stitched items ) –

We believe our customers understand that even if they get something custom tailored locally, multiple sessions of trial and alterations are needed before the desired fit, pattern & look can be created.

Better fitting suggestion –

  • 1) If you do not have facilities of local alterations or do not have access to someone who can help you with alterations, we strongly suggest you to use our more safer measurement options, which will minimize any chances of error.
  • 2) Buy unstitched items from us and get them tailored by your personal stylist or boutique.
  • 3) Try to choose as shown options to minimize errors.
  • 4) Send your best fitting garment as sample.
  • 5) Ask us to send you the dummy garment for the fittings & style approval before we start working on your original outfit or item.


If error is ours –

  • 1) We will do free alterations & modifications.
  • 2) Shipping charges both ways shall be borne by customer. Or send free replacement if not possible to repair (once the we get the product). We will bear shipping charges if replacement is no longer available then we will request you to choose some other alternative item from our website.
  • 3) No refund can be issued under any circumstances.
  • 4) We will request the customer to ship back the item to us in India to their relatives and send them back after correction or if not possible to correct then ship replacement item with no extra cost to the customer.

  • 4) Not withstanding the above or any other provision, we are under no obligation to accept any returns or provide any replacements or exchange or store credit. We have sole discretion in deciding whether to accept the returns or not depending on the merit of the case.


Item availability failure –

In case of multiple goods being ordered, if the delivery is not possible for certain items, customers will be requested to select alternate items or if no alternate selection is desired by customer then she will be promptly refunded against the non-delivered goods or services along with their shipping charges.

Credit Issues-

All credits to be posted to a customer’s credit card account takes about 3 to 5 business days to be processed. The corresponding bank of the customers may take about 2 business days to actually post these to the customer’s accounts from the date we processed the credits. Customers can check these credits in their next credit card statement.

Be extra alert when accepting parcel from courier -

If the outer packing is damaged or tampered with, do verify the items quality and quantity with invoice before accepting the package from the courier agency. In case of any discrepancy, either refuse to accept delivery or accept delivery only after putting suitable remark on the proof of delivery. Also lodge proper complain with the local office of the courier agency, so that we may pursue them.

Color & description disclaimer –

The details of the products or product specifications (for instance weight, color, handwork details, size, etc.) quoted with the product displays are only approximate values.

While every endeavor has been made to accurately reproduce colors, there may be minor variations in color of the actual product because of the nature of fabric dyes, weather at the time of dying and differences in display output due to lighting and digital photography and color settings and capabilities of monitors.

A customer must place an order keeping in mind this minor variation in color as seen on a computer screen against the actual color of the outfit received.

We wish to clarify and ascertain that every customer who orders any outfit from Mahikaa Collection is aware of this genuine problem.

While ordering on internet, we suggest that customers should be extra careful of following –

Red, maroon and orange colors have a higher tendency to reflect a different shade than other colors. For example even if you yourself try to photograph from a digital camera or scan a red garment, in most of the cases it will show either as maroon or orange on the computer monitor and vice versa. Though imaging technology has advanced, still no fool proof solution to this problem is available at the moment.

Many a times green and blue shades also overlap. same is the case with offwhite, white and cream colors.

Some fabrics like raw silk, khadi silk, cotton silk, south cotton, brocade have a textured effect where we can see the weaving & threads are visible in different directions which is a inherent characteristic or feature of that fabric and proof of its authenticity. These are not defects. This raw finish is the beauty of these fabrics.

Handcrafted, hand dyed, hand printed, hand painted, hand embroidered, handloom, hand weaved products will always have minor differences when we compare them as they are not made by machines. Each piece will be unique. Handicraft artisans always try their best to make each piece better than the previous one. So, the product will always have minor variation keeping the same theme constant in artistic manner. The raw finish of the handicrafts cannot be compared with machine finished products as this raw finish is the beauty of the handicrafts items.

Beads and sequences missing or coming off –

we believe that customers who are ordering items with sequence and other beaded embroidery are aware of the fact that these shiny embellishments have a tendency to come off. Even with the best of handling and care this cannot be avoided altogether. Many a times during strict physical checking at the customs during transit, more than usual sequences and beads come off. Many a times it may happen that you open a box and find some pieces falling down on the floor. Or you wear the dress and in few hours you might loose some of them. Do not panic or over-react because if you look with a magnifying glass at any such dresses / sarees worn by others, you will most certainly find some pieces missing or almost at a state of falling down.
