Last Updated: 9 October 2026
At The Vedic Crust, we are committed to delivering the authentic taste of Indian heritage straight to your doorstep. Every order is handled with care to help ensure your products reach you safely and in good condition.
Please read our Shipping & Delivery Policy to understand how we process and deliver your orders.
1. Order Processing
Orders are processed after successful payment confirmation or order confirmation for eligible Cash on Delivery (COD) orders.
We generally require 1–3 business days to process and dispatch orders. Processing times may vary during festivals, holidays, promotional sales, or periods of high demand.
Orders are not typically processed or dispatched on Sundays or public holidays.
2. Shipping Locations
The Vedic Crust currently aims to serve customers across India, subject to serviceability at the delivery address.
Delivery availability may depend on the customer's PIN code and our logistics partners.
If your location is not serviceable, our team may contact you to discuss the available options.
3. Estimated Delivery Time
Once your order has been dispatched, estimated delivery times are generally as follows:
-
Metro Cities: 3–5 business days.
-
Other Locations: 5–8 business days.
-
Remote Areas: Delivery may take additional time depending on location and courier serviceability.
These timelines are estimates and may vary due to weather conditions, courier delays, public holidays, operational disruptions, or other circumstances beyond our control.
4. Shipping Charges
Shipping charges, if applicable, will be displayed at checkout before you complete your purchase.
The final shipping cost may depend on the delivery PIN code, order weight, order value, and applicable shipping arrangements.
Any free-shipping offers will be subject to the terms and conditions displayed on our website at the time of purchase.
5. Order Tracking
Once your order has been dispatched, tracking information may be shared through email, SMS, WhatsApp, or another available communication channel.
You can use the tracking details provided to check your shipment's progress.
If you have not received tracking information or need assistance with your shipment, please contact our customer support team with your order number.
6. Packaging & Product Handling
We take care to pack our traditional food products appropriately for shipping.
Customers are advised to inspect the outer packaging upon delivery and store food products according to the storage instructions provided on the packaging.
If your parcel arrives damaged, tampered with, or in a condition that raises food safety concerns, please contact us promptly and avoid consuming the affected product.
7. Delayed or Undelivered Orders
Although we work with delivery partners to ensure timely delivery, unexpected delays may occur.
If your order has not arrived within the estimated delivery window, please contact our customer support team. We will coordinate with the relevant delivery partner to investigate the status of your shipment.
If an order is confirmed as lost or undelivered, we will review the situation and provide an appropriate resolution in accordance with our Refund & Returns Policy and applicable law.
8. Incorrect Address or Failed Delivery
Please ensure that your name, phone number, PIN code, and complete delivery address are accurate when placing an order.
Incorrect or incomplete details may result in delays or failed delivery attempts.
If a delivery attempt fails because the recipient is unavailable or the address is incorrect, the courier may attempt redelivery or return the parcel to us, depending on the delivery partner's procedures.
Additional shipping charges, if any, will be communicated where applicable.
9. Order Changes & Cancellations
If you need to change your delivery address or cancel an order, please contact us as soon as possible.
