Ready-to-Ship Products

Most Akanya products are ready to ship.

These orders are generally dispatched within 1 working day.

For example:

If a product is made to order, this will be clearly mentioned on the relevant product page.

Made-to-order garments generally require 1 additional day of production before dispatch.

For example:

Order placed Monday → Production Tuesday → Dispatch generally by Wednesday.

The estimated dispatch information displayed on the product page will take precedence where applicable.


6. Delivery Timeline

Once an order has been dispatched, delivery generally takes:

3–5 days

The exact delivery time depends on:

  • Delivery location
  • Courier service
  • Local logistics conditions
  • Weather
  • Public holidays
  • Regional restrictions
  • Other circumstances beyond Akanya's reasonable control

Remote locations may occasionally require additional time.


7. Order Tracking

Once your order has been dispatched, tracking information will be shared with you using the contact details provided at checkout.

You can use the tracking information to monitor your shipment.

If you have not received tracking information after the expected dispatch date, please contact us.


8. Partial Cash on Delivery

Akanya offers Partial Cash on Delivery (COD) on eligible orders.

Under our Partial COD system:

10% of the order value is paid online

90% is paid at the time of delivery

For example:

Order value: ₹2,000

  • ₹200 → Paid online at checkout
  • ₹1,800 → Paid at delivery

COD availability may depend on:

  • Delivery location
  • Order value
  • Product
  • Order history
  • Courier availability
  • Other operational factors

Akanya reserves the right to restrict COD availability for certain orders.


9. Failed Delivery

If a courier partner is unable to deliver your order, they may attempt delivery again.

Please ensure that:

  • Your shipping address is correct
  • Your phone number is reachable
  • Someone is available to receive the package
  • COD orders can be accepted and paid for at delivery

If an order is returned to Akanya because of repeated failed delivery attempts, incorrect address information or refusal to accept the package, our team may contact you regarding the next steps.

Please carefully check:

  • House/Flat number
  • Building
  • Street

Occasionally, delivery may take longer due to circumstances beyond our control, including:

  • Extreme weather

  • Public holidays
  • Courier disruptions
  • Regional restrictions
  • Transportation delays
  • High-volume periods

If you want to combine orders, please contact us as soon as possible after placing them. We cannot guarantee that separate orders can be combined once processing has started.


13. Multiple Products in One Order

If an order contains products with different dispatch timelines, the order may be shipped together or in multiple shipments depending on availability and production requirements.

If your order is split into multiple shipments, applicable tracking information will be shared for each shipment.


14. Product Availability & Dispatch

Although we make every effort to maintain accurate inventory information, occasionally a product may become unavailable due to inventory or operational issues.

If we are unable to fulfil an order, we will contact you regarding the available options.

Where a refund is applicable, it will be processed according to our Refund Policy.


15. Packaging

Every Akanya order is carefully packed before dispatch.

Please check your package and product upon delivery.

If you notice significant damage to the outer packaging or believe the product may have been damaged during transit, please contact us as soon as possible.
