For Try-and-Buy Orders, the Platform Fee is non-refundable once the Order has been dispatched for delivery, regardless of whether the Customer ultimately purchases any item.

StyleZen shall charge a Shipping Fee on Orders placed pursuant to the following conditions:
- Orders whose post-discount Order value is below INR 1,299 for all product categories (unless otherwise specified).

5.5

- Any item returned in a damaged, soiled, stained, or altered condition - relative to the documented condition at dispatch - shall be the Customer's financial liability at full MRP.
- Removal of any original tag, label, barcode, or security seal from an item that is subsequently not purchased shall be treated as acceptance of that item, and the Customer shall be liable for its full MRP.
- Damage claims by the Customer against StyleZen in respect of Try-and-Buy items will only be entertained if raised to the delivery executive at the time of handover, before the Trial Window commences.

12A.2
The Customer must remain at the delivery address for the entire Trial Window. The delivery executive is not required to wait beyond the Trial Window. If the Customer requests additional time beyond the Trial Window, this is at the executive's discretion and does not extend the Customer's legal obligation to return all non-purchased items.

Any dispute between the Customer and the delivery executive at the time of return - including regarding item count, condition, or the Customer's refusal to return items - will be escalated immediately to StyleZen's operations team. The Customer may contact StyleZen support at support@stylezen.co or via in-app chat. This does not suspend the Customer's obligation to return non-purchased items.
12A.6
A security deposit may be required for Try-and-Buy Orders exceeding INR 3,000 in value, or where StyleZen determines that a deposit is warranted based on the Customer's account history.
