Last Updated: 22 July 2026

This Return, Replacement & Refund Policy ("Policy") governs the terms under which Sids Farm Private Limited (hereinafter referred to as "Sids Farm", "Company", "we", "our", or "us") processes returns, replacements, and refunds for products purchased by users/customers ("Customer", "you", or "your") through our website, mobile application, or authorized distribution channels (collectively, the "Platform"). 

1. General Policy

At Sids Farm, we are committed to delivering products of the highest quality and ensuring customer satisfaction. Due to the perishable and natural nature of our products, all confirmed orders are considered final. Once an order has been successfully placed and confirmed, it cannot be cancelled, returned, or refunded except under the limited circumstances specifically mentioned in this Policy. We reserve the right to assess each request on a case-by-case basis and provide a fair and reasonable resolution and in good faith based on the facts and evidence available.

Our products are made using natural ingredients and traditional production methods. As a result, variations in taste, texture, colour, aroma, consistency, or appearance may naturally occur between batches. Such natural variations shall not be considered manufacturing defects and will not qualify for a return, replacement, or refund. For example, minor differences in colour or texture across batches due to seasonal variations in milk are normal and expected.

However, if a Customer believes that a product is spoiled or defective beyond normal natural variation, we encourage them to contact our team. Each claim will be investigated with due diligence, and where a genuine quality issue is established by our internal Quality Assurance team, an appropriate replacement may be provided based on the findings of our investigation. In the case of food safety concerns, such as contamination or the presence of a foreign object, Customers are requested to report the issue immediately upon discovery so that it may be investigated and addressed on an expedited basis. 

Storage Caveat: Sids Farm shall not be held liable for any spoilage or degradation of perishable products arising from the Customer's failure to maintain appropriate cold-chain storage (refrigeration) immediately upon delivery.

Delays in delivery or replacement caused by Force Majeure events, including but not limited to weather, natural disasters, strikes, transportation disruptions, or government, or any other event beyond the reasonable control of the Company, shall not be treated as a breach of this Policy by the Company.

For the purposes of this Policy, “business days” and “business hours” exclude Sundays and public holidays declared by the Government of [State/India].
