The Champaran Kitchen

Cancellation & Refund Policy

Effective Date: 24 October 2026


This policy explains how cancellation requests, failed payments, order issues, and refunds are handled for food orders placed through The Champaran Kitchen website.

1. Customer Order Cancellation

Customers should contact the restaurant as soon as possible if they wish to cancel an order.

Cancellation may be possible before food preparation begins, subject to confirmation by the restaurant.

Once preparation has started, cancellation may not be possible in ordinary circumstances because the food is prepared for immediate consumption.

Nothing in this policy limits rights or remedies available under applicable law.

2. Restaurant-Initiated Cancellation

We may cancel an order if:

  • A selected item is unavailable.
  • The restaurant cannot fulfil the order.
  • The delivery address is outside the service area.
  • A technical or payment verification issue prevents processing.
  • An unforeseen operational issue makes fulfilment impracticable.

If a prepaid order is cancelled by the restaurant and payment has been received, an applicable refund will be initiated.

3. Incorrect or Missing Items

If you receive an incorrect dish or discover that an item is missing, please contact us promptly with your order number and details.

After reviewing the issue, we may offer a replacement, partial refund, full refund, or another appropriate resolution, depending on the circumstances and applicable law.

4. Food Quality or Packaging Complaints

If food arrives with damaged packaging, a suspected food-safety issue, or a material quality problem, please stop consuming the affected item and contact us as soon as possible.

We will investigate the complaint and determine the appropriate resolution.

Customers should not be denied a valid remedy solely because food is perishable.

5. Failed or Pending Payments

If money is deducted from your bank account but the order is not confirmed, please contact us with the transaction reference, payment date, amount, and order details.

We will verify the payment with our payment provider. If the transaction failed or the order was not successfully placed, the applicable reversal or refund will be handled through the payment provider and the relevant banking process.

Please check the transaction status before making another payment.

6. Duplicate Payments

If you are charged more than once for the same order, contact us with the relevant transaction references.

After verification, any confirmed duplicate payment will be refunded as applicable.

7. Refund Processing Time

Once a refund is approved, we will initiate it through the applicable payment channel.

The time taken for the amount to appear in your account depends on the payment provider, bank, and payment method. We will communicate any available refund reference or status information.

8. Refund Method

Online payments will generally be refunded to the original payment source, subject to payment-provider capabilities and applicable requirements.

Customers may be asked for transaction details necessary to verify a refund. We will never ask for a UPI PIN or banking password to process a refund.

9. Non-Refundable Situations

A refund may not be available for a change of mind after preparation has begun, an order correctly fulfilled according to the confirmed details, or other circumstances where a refund is not warranted under the applicable policy and law.

This section does not exclude refunds or other remedies legally due for non-delivery, duplicate payments, incorrect orders, or other valid claims.
