2. Order Processing & Packaging Protocols
All non-custom orders are packed and handed over to our air courier partners within 24–48 hours of payment verification.
- Perishable Sweets & Confectionery: Fresh mithai (such as Haldiram Kaju Katli, Gulab Jamun, and Besan Laddu) are vacuum-sealed in food-grade inert packaging to ensure optimal freshness and extended shelf life during air transit.
- Jewelry, Keepsakes & Festive Threads: Delicate gift articles, silver coins, festive threads, and celebratory keepsakes are packed inside rigid gift presentation boxes with protective cushioning to prevent transit damage.
- Gift Greetings: Your personalized gift message is printed neatly onto high-gsm keepsake greeting cards included inside the presentation box.
3. Customs Clearance & Delivered Duty Paid (DDP)
Certain agricultural and biosecurity regulations (notably in Australia and New Zealand) prohibit the import of specific plant seeds or unpackaged raw grains. Our country-filtered catalog automatically excludes any restricted items when shipping to those specific territories.
4. Address Accuracy & Out-of-Area Territories
To avoid carrier misrouting or delayed dispatches:
- No P.O. Box Addresses: International couriers require a verifiable physical street address with signature capability upon delivery.
- Recipient Phone Number: A functioning local phone number is mandatory. Couriers will call or send SMS delivery alerts before delivery arrival.
- Remote Area Deliveries: While 98% of international addresses are served standard, courier remote/extended area surcharges or extra 1–2 day transit times may apply to remote rural postcodes.
5. Tracking Your Dispatched Gift
Once your package is scanned by our logistics carrier, you will receive an automated shipping confirmation email containing:
- The official Airway Bill (AWB) / Tracking Number.
- A direct link to the courier’s live real-time tracking portal (DHL, FedEx, BlueDart).
- Estimated delivery date windows.
