In short: request a return from My Orders within 7 days of delivery. Wrong or damaged items need an unboxing video, and we pay the return delivery for them. Refunds are made within 3–7 working days after the item reaches us and passes inspection.
When you can return an item
| Reason | Accepted within 7 days? | Who pays return delivery |
|---|---|---|
| Wrong item received | Yes, with an unboxing video | ZippKart |

| Defective or not working | Yes | ZippKart |

The 7 days start on the date the order is marked Delivered. After that, faults are handled under our Warranty Policy.
Unboxing video for wrong or damaged items
Every return for a wrong item or an item that arrived damaged must include an unboxing video. The return form won't submit without one.
- Record one continuous video, with no cuts or edits, starting before the parcel is opened.
- It must show the courier label with your name or order number, and the sealed ZippKart box and tape before opening.
- Then show the box being opened and the item inside. For a phone, show its model and the IMEI on the box or on the phone (dial *#06#).
- Upload it on the return form (MP4, MOV or WebM, up to 50 MB). If it's bigger, paste a Google Drive or unlisted YouTube link instead.
- Keep the original video until your return is complete.
Without a video showing this, we can't accept a wrong-item or damage claim.
Condition of the item
- Return the item with its original box, accessories, charger, cable, manuals, free gifts and invoice.
- A phone must have the same IMEI as the one we sent.
- Remove your Google account, iCloud / Find My, screen lock and any other account lock before sending a phone back. We can't accept a phone that is still locked to an account.
- The item must have no new physical damage, liquid damage, missing parts, or repairs by anyone else.
- Repair parts (screens, batteries, back glass and other spare parts) can only be returned if they have not been installed, and their protective film and labels are intact. If a part arrives faulty, tell us within 48 hours of delivery and before installing it.
- Used phones can be returned for the reasons above. They cannot be returned for normal signs of use that were shown or described on the product page.
Items that can't be returned
- Items damaged after delivery by drops, liquid, misuse or a repair attempt.
- Repair parts that have been installed, soldered or had their protective film removed.
- Opened change-of-mind items (screen protectors, cases and earbuds included), for hygiene and resale reasons.
- A non-PTA phone returned only because it is not PTA-approved, when the product page showed it as non-PTA.

- Sign in and open My Orders, then the order.
- Press Start Return Request. Choose the items, the reason and whether you want a refund, a replacement or store credit. Attach your unboxing video if the item is wrong or damaged, and add any details.

Replacements
