3.1 Consumer purchases

This Policy primarily governs retail purchases made by consumers for personal use.

3.3 Purchases from unauthorised sellers

Sunfox shall not be responsible for returns, refunds or replacements in relation to products purchased from unauthorised sellers, resellers or channels. Warranty support may be refused where valid proof of purchase from Sunfox or an authorised seller is not provided.

4. RETURN POLICY

4.1 Ten-day discretionary return period

Subject to the conditions stated in this Policy, a Customer may submit a request to return an eligible product within ten calendar days from the Delivery Date.

The ten-day return facility is a contractual and discretionary facility offered by Sunfox. It does not limit the Customer’s statutory rights in relation to products that are defective, damaged, spurious, materially misdescribed, deficient or otherwise required to be accepted for return under applicable law.

4.2 Eligibility for discretionary returns

A discretionary return may be approved where:

  • The request is submitted within ten calendar days from delivery;
  • The Customer provides a reasonable and bona fide explanation for the return;
  • The product has not been used, activated, registered, installed, altered or damaged;
  • The product is returned in its Original Condition;
  • All original accessories, electrodes, leads, cables, adaptors, manuals, warranty cards, promotional items and other components are included;
  • The serial number, barcode, security label and product identification details remain intact and correspond with Sunfox’s records;
  • The product packaging, security seal and tamper-evident seal have not been damaged or removed, except where opening was reasonably necessary to identify a defect, wrong product or transit damage; and
  • The Customer has complied with the return procedure specified in this Policy.

Approval of a discretionary return shall be subject to inspection and verification by Sunfox.

4.3 Mandatory or defect-related returns

Subject to verification, Sunfox shall provide an appropriate remedy where:

  • The product delivered is materially different from the product ordered;
  • An incorrect model, variant or quantity has been delivered;
  • The product was damaged during transit;
  • The product contains a verified manufacturing defect;
  • The product is materially different from its description or advertised characteristics;
  • Essential components or accessories forming part of the purchased package are missing;
  • The product is spurious, where established; or
  • The product was delivered materially beyond the stated delivery schedule for reasons attributable to Sunfox or its logistics partner, excluding delays caused by force majeure or circumstances beyond reasonable control.

Depending upon the circumstances, nature of the defect, product availability and applicable law, Sunfox may provide repair, replacement or refund.

4.4 Items not eligible for discretionary return

The following shall not ordinarily be eligible for a change-of-mind or discretionary return:

  • Products that have been used, activated, registered, installed or materially handled;
  • Products with broken, removed or tampered security seals;
  • Products showing physical damage, liquid damage, contamination, corrosion, burn marks or misuse;
  • Products with missing, altered or illegible serial numbers, labels or barcodes;
  • Products repaired, opened or altered by an unauthorised person;
  • Electrodes, adhesive patches, consumables, disposable items, hygiene-sensitive accessories or single-use components once their packaging has been opened;
  • Software, subscriptions, digital services, reports or electronically delivered services once activated, accessed or consumed;
  • Customised, specially configured or specially procured products;
  • Free products, promotional products or complimentary items returned independently from the principal product; and
  • Products purchased from unauthorised sellers.

These exclusions shall not apply where the product is defective, damaged, incorrectly supplied or otherwise required to be accepted under applicable law.

5. RETURN REQUEST PROCEDURE

5.1 Submission of request

A Customer seeking a return must send a written request to:
Email: support@sunfox.in

The request should include:

  • The Customer’s full name and registered contact details;
  • Order number and invoice number;
  • Product name, model and serial number;
  • Date of delivery;
  • Reason for requesting the return;
  • Photographs or video reasonably demonstrating the product’s condition and the reported issue; and
  • Any other information reasonably requested by the support or Quality Assurance Team.

5.2 Acknowledgement and preliminary assessment

Sunfox shall ordinarily acknowledge the request within 48 hours of receipt. Acknowledgement of a request shall not constitute approval of the return.

Sunfox may conduct a preliminary assessment by telephone, video call, remote troubleshooting, application diagnostics or any other suitable method before authorising the return.

5.3 Packaging evidence

The Customer may be requested to record and share a clear video showing:

  • The product’s physical condition;
  • The serial number and labels;
  • All accessories and components being placed in the package; and
  • The final sealing of the return package.

The purpose of such recording is to reduce transit disputes and verify the contents of the returned package. However, failure to provide a video shall not, by itself, invalidate a legitimate statutory claim where the Customer provides other reasonable evidence.

5.4 Return Authorisation and pickup

A product must not be returned without receiving a Return Authorisation or written instructions from Sunfox.

Upon approval, Sunfox may:

  • Arrange pickup through an authorised third-party logistics provider; or
  • Provide the Customer with instructions for shipping the product to the designated Sunfox facility.

The return warehouse address shall be communicated after approval.

5.5 Responsibility for return shipping costs

Where a return arises from a verified manufacturing defect, transit damage, incorrect product, missing components or material misdescription attributable to Sunfox, Sunfox shall bear the reasonable return shipping cost.

For an approved discretionary or change-of-mind return, the Customer may be required to bear the actual return shipping cost. Where Sunfox arranges such pickup, the applicable logistics cost may be deducted from the refundable amount after being disclosed to the Customer.

5.6 Failed pickup

The Customer must ensure that the product is securely packed and available at the confirmed pickup address and time.

Where pickup fails repeatedly due to the Customer’s unavailability, incorrect address or failure to keep the product ready, Sunfox may require the Customer to ship the product to the designated warehouse at the Customer’s cost.

6. INSPECTION AND QUALITY ASSESSMENT

6.1 Inspection upon receipt

All returned products shall undergo inspection, testing and quality assessment by Sunfox or its authorised technical or Quality Assurance Team.

Inspection may include verification of:

  • Serial numbers and product identity;
  • Physical condition;
  • Tampering or unauthorised repair;
  • Missing accessories or components;
  • Software or activation status;
  • Manufacturing defects;
  • Usage history, where technically available; and
  • Consistency between the returned product and the return request.

6.2 Inspection timeline

Sunfox shall ordinarily complete the inspection within seven Business Days after the returned product is received at its designated facility. Complex technical matters may require additional time, in which case the Customer shall be informed.

6.3 Outcome of inspection

Following inspection, Sunfox may:

  • Approve a full refund;
  • Approve a partial refund with a written explanation;
  • Approve repair or replacement;
  • Return the product to the Customer where no defect is found;
  • Reject the request where the product is ineligible, materially damaged by the Customer, tampered with, incomplete, substituted, counterfeit or inconsistent with the original purchase; or
  • Request further information or testing.

Where a claim is rejected, Sunfox shall communicate the principal reasons for rejection to the Customer.

7. REFUND POLICY

7.1 Refund eligibility

A refund shall be initiated only after:

  • The return has been authorised;
  • The returned product has been received by Sunfox;
  • The product has completed the applicable inspection and quality assessment; and
  • The refund has been approved.

In cases of order cancellation before dispatch, refund processing may begin without requiring a return.

7.2 Refund amount

Where a full refund is approved, Sunfox shall refund the amount actually received from the Customer for the eligible product.

For discretionary returns, Sunfox may deduct, where applicable and lawfully permissible:

  • Actual return logistics charges disclosed to the Customer;
  • The value of missing accessories, components or complimentary products;
  • Reasonable diminution in value caused by handling beyond what was necessary to inspect the product; and
  • Amounts relating to services already performed, activated or consumed.

No deduction shall be made for a verified manufacturing defect, incorrect product, transit damage or deficiency attributable to Sunfox, except for components missing due to the Customer’s acts or omissions.

7.3 Refund initiation timelines

After approval of the refund, Sunfox shall ordinarily initiate the refund within the following periods:

  • UPI or eligible online wallet: within one to two Business Days;
  • NEFT, IMPS or bank transfer: within three to four Business Days;
  • Credit card, debit card, net banking or payment gateway: within five to seven Business Days, subject to the processing timelines of the issuing bank and payment service provider; and
  • Cash on Delivery orders: within three to five Business Days after receipt and verification of the Customer’s bank details.

These timelines refer to initiation by Sunfox. The actual time required for the amount to appear in the Customer’s account may vary depending upon the bank, card issuer, payment gateway or financial institution.

7.4 Mode of refund

Refunds shall ordinarily be processed through the original mode of payment.

Where refund through the original payment mode is not technically possible, Sunfox may request verified bank account or UPI details and process the refund through NEFT, IMPS or another legally permitted method.

Cash refunds shall not ordinarily be provided.

For Cash on Delivery orders, the Customer must provide accurate bank account details, cancelled cheque, bank proof or other verification requested by Sunfox.

7.5 Incorrect refund details

Sunfox shall not be responsible for delays or failed transfers caused by incorrect, incomplete or mismatched bank or payment details provided by the Customer.

Where a refund is returned or rejected by the Customer’s bank, Sunfox shall reprocess the refund after receiving corrected and verified details.

7.6 Currency and external charges

Refunds shall ordinarily be issued in the currency in which payment was received.

Sunfox shall not be responsible for:

  • Exchange-rate fluctuations;
  • Foreign currency conversion charges;
  • Charges imposed independently by the Customer’s bank, card issuer or wallet provider; or
  • Delays caused exclusively by a third-party financial institution.

This limitation shall not apply to charges or losses arising from an error attributable to Sunfox.

8. ORDER CANCELLATION POLICY

8.1 Cancellation by the Customer before dispatch

A Customer may request cancellation of an order before dispatch by contacting support@sunfox.in and providing the order details.

No cancellation fee shall ordinarily be charged where the order is cancelled before dispatch.

A cancellation request shall be treated as accepted only after Sunfox issues written confirmation.

8.2 Cancellation after dispatch

Once an order has been dispatched, cancellation may not be operationally possible. The Customer may request a return after delivery in accordance with this Policy.

Refusal to accept delivery shall not automatically constitute an approved return. Any resulting return logistics cost may be deducted in the case of a discretionary return, subject to applicable law.

8.3 Non-cancellable orders

Customised, specially configured, bulk, institutional or specially procured orders may not be cancelled after procurement, production or configuration has commenced, except where otherwise agreed in writing or required by law.

Any such restriction shall be disclosed before acceptance of the order.

8.4 Cancellation by Sunfox

Sunfox may cancel an order for reasonable and bona fide grounds, including:

  • Product unavailability;
  • Manifest pricing, catalogue or technical error;
  • Failure of payment authorisation;
  • Suspected fraudulent, unlawful or unauthorised transaction;
  • Materially incomplete, inaccurate or unverifiable order information;
  • Delivery to a non-serviceable location;
  • Inability to comply with legal, regulatory or safety requirements;
  • Abuse of return, refund or promotional facilities supported by reasonable records;
  • Force majeure; or
  • Any circumstance making performance impossible or unlawful.

Where Sunfox cancels a prepaid order, the full amount received for the cancelled order shall be refunded through the original payment method within the applicable processing period.

Sunfox shall not cancel an order arbitrarily or on discriminatory grounds prohibited by law.

9.6 Data stored on devices

Before returning a product, the Customer should back up and delete personal information stored on the device, application or connected equipment, wherever applicable.

10.1 Dispatch and estimated delivery

Subject to stock availability, payment confirmation and order verification, Sunfox shall endeavour to dispatch orders within the timeline communicated at the time of purchase.

After dispatch, delivery is ordinarily expected within two to three Business Days for serviceable locations. Delivery to remote, restricted or non-metro locations may require additional time.

All delivery timelines are estimates and not absolute guarantees unless expressly agreed in writing.

Tracking details shall be shared through email, SMS, WhatsApp, the Customer’s account or another available communication channel after dispatch.

  • Mention the condition to the delivery representative, where possible;
  • Record an unboxing video; and

A return, replacement or refund request must be raised through the procedure specified in this Policy.

  • Fabricated evidence;
  • Repeated abuse of return or promotional facilities;
  • False non-delivery claims contradicted by reliable delivery records; or
  • Any fraudulent or unlawful conduct.

Sunfox may restrict future transactions where it has reasonable and documented grounds to suspect fraud, unlawful activity or repeated material abuse. Any such action shall be proportionate, non-discriminatory and subject to applicable law.

Sunfox may also report suspected criminal conduct to the appropriate authorities.
