How Can I Return My Order on FlipKart? (Step 1)

Go to the Orders Tab

Tap Return to Create a Request

Choose Reason for Return

The three options available are Exchange, Refund or Replace. Depending on the item you wish to return, you may also need to complete a verification process.

You can choose Exchange if you want an identical item but a different size or color. Select Replace if the item is defective or damaged. If you can't find the item that will serve as the replacement, you may choose Refund.

Confirm the Return

Make sure you have the item or items ready for return. They must be in their original packaging. Never remove the price tags and ensure the accessories included are also in the package.

Flipkart may deny the return if the item has scratches, tears, dents or holes. Please keep the original box as well and ensure it's undamaged. Flipkart may attempt to troubleshoot electronic items first before processing your refund.

After confirmation, you'll receive an email and SMS on your mobile number. You can track your return by going to your My Account Page.

Schedule Pickup or Delivery

The next step is scheduling the pickup or delivery of the item. You'll have these details after confirming the return. When you opt for a pickup, make sure you're available on the chosen date or time to avoid problems with your order.

Wait for the Refund (if Applicable)

The amount will be electronically transferred if you have paid via cash-on-delivery. If you paid with your credit or debit card, the refundable amount will be credited to the card you used for the payment.

Conclusion

Keep in mind that you can also cancel a Flipkart order. If you bought the wrong item and it hasn't been dispatched yet, feel free to cancel it anytime. Orders that are out for delivery can no longer be canceled.

When returning an item, review the returns policy first to ensure the product purchased is eligible for return. You can find the returns or replacement policy on the product pages. If you have questions about your Flipkart orders, please don't hesitate to contact Customer Support.
