2. TERMS OF RETURN AND REFUND

It is mandatory for the Customer to make an unboxing video clearly depicting the issues with the Product and submit the same to Little Bear along with the request for return or replacement of Product in accordance with Clause 3.4 of this Policy. The Customer acknowledges and agrees that Little Bear shall not accept the Customerās return or replacement request for Defective Delivery if such Customer does not raise the request within the Defective Delivery Return Window.
- The Customer agrees and acknowledges that Little Bear shall not process request for return or replacement of the Product in case (a) the Product has been used or altered; (b) the Product is received in a physically damaged condition different from the condition of the Product in the unboxing video submitted by the Customer; (c) the Product is returned without original packaging including price tags, labels, samples and promotional gifts/freebies; (d) Little Bear is not satisfied with the images or videos submitted by the Customer; and (e) the request is initiated beyond the Defective Delivery Return Window.

- For any request for return or replacement (as applicable) of Product, the Customer shall take pictures or videos clearly depicting the issues with the Product and submit the same to Little Bear along with the request for return or replacement of Product. The Customer understands that merely raising a request for return or replacement does not entitle such Customer to a refund or replaced Product. The request for return or replacement of Product shall only be processed if Little Bear in its sole opinion is satisfied with the images or videos submitted and has expressly acknowledged and accepted the defect in the Product. The Customer agrees not to challenge such decision in any manner whatsoever.

Any damage to a removable part will not result in the replacement of the entire Product, and only that part of the Product which is damaged shall be covered under warranty.
- All of Little Bearās Products are packaged with tamper-proof packing. The Customer shall ensure to not accept any package containing the Products where the seal is tampered or outer package is damaged. It is expressly clarified that acceptance of a tampered or damaged package by the Customer will automatically disqualify such Customer from any return or replacement request for Defective Delivery.
- Only those Products for which (a) a return/replacement request has been placed by the Customer in accordance with this Policy and for which (i) the replacement is not possible; or (ii) a replacement is not asked for; or (b) a cancellation request has been initiated by Little Bear or has been placed by the Customer as per this Policy, the Customer will be eligible for a refund. All refunds provided by Little Bear shall be in accordance with Clause 3.10 of this Policy. The refund process shall be initiated once the returned/cancelled Order has been received and verified at the warehouse.
- THE CUSTOMER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY RETURN OR REPLACEMENT OF THE PRODUCT, APPROVED BY LITTLE BEAR IN ACCORDANCE WITH THIS POLICY SHALL BE STRICTLY PROCESSED ON A ONE-TIME BASIS. IT IS EXPRESSLY CLARIFIED THAT LITTLE BEAR SHALL NOT PROVIDE ANY RETURN OR REPLACEMENT OF A PRODUCT WHICH HAS ALREADY BEEN RETURNED OR REPLACED. ONCE A PRODUCT HAS UNDERGONE THE RETURN OR REPLACEMENT PROCESS, IT IS CONSIDERED FINAL.
- Details in relation to such refunds shall be informed to the Customer through the registered mobile number or email ID that was used at the time of signing-up or in such other manner as may be indicated by Little Bear. Little Bear reserves the right to honour such refund requests in a manner it deems fit and it is clarified that such refund requests shall be accepted by Little Bear only in exceptional cases. The Customer agrees not to challenge such decisions in any manner whatsoever.
- Subject to this Policy, the transaction amount will be refunded to the Customer only in the form of store credit (āStore Creditā). One Store Credit shall be equal to INR 1 (Indian Rupees One) and shall be linked to the Customersā Account. The Customer can utilize the Store Credit to purchase any Product on the Platform provided that the amount of such Product is commensurate with the value of the Store Credit. If the chosen Product exceeds the value of the Store Credit, the Customer may settle the price difference through alternative payment methods. On the other hand, if the value of the chosen Product is lower than that of the Store Credit, the Customer can either retain the remaining balance for future Orders or choose additional items to fully utilize the Store Credit.
