These policies govern all users of the Accesco Living platform, including the mobile application, website, and any associated services. By accessing or using Accesco Living's services, you agree to be bound by these policies in their entirety. Please read them carefully.
PART B — REFUND & CANCELLATION POLICY
This Refund and Cancellation Policy applies to all orders placed on the Accesco Living platform across all verticals — Grokly (grocery), Swadisht (food / cloud kitchen), DineX (dining), InstaStyle (fashion), and LocalMeds (pharmacy). This policy is designed to be fair, transparent, and compliant with the Consumer Protection Act, 2019.
12. Order Cancellation — By Customer
You may cancel your order free of charge within the cancellation window applicable to each vertical. Once an order moves beyond the cancellation window, the order cannot be cancelled and a refund will only be applicable under Section 14 (Refund Eligibility).
| Vertical | Cancellation Window | Condition |
|---|---|---|
| Grokly (Grocery) | Within 60 seconds of order placement | Before order is accepted by dark store |
| Swadisht (Food / Kitchen) | Within 60 seconds of order placement | Before kitchen begins preparation |
| DineX (Dining / Table) | Up to 2 hours before reservation time | Full cancellation, no charge |
| InstaStyle (Fashion) | Within 10 minutes of order placement | Before item is dispatched from dark store |
| LocalMeds (Pharmacy) | Within 60 seconds of order placement | Before pharmacist processes prescription |
| Any vertical — subscription | Up to 24 hours before next billing cycle | See Section 20 |
- Open the Accesco Living app → My Orders → Select the order → Tap 'Cancel Order'.
- Cancellation requests submitted within the applicable window will be processed immediately.
- You will receive a cancellation confirmation via push notification and SMS.
- For DineX reservations, cancellation can also be done via the email confirmation link.
If you cancel after the cancellation window has elapsed, the order is not eligible for a standard cancellation refund. However, if the order is subsequently delayed beyond the SLA commitment or arrives in unacceptable condition, you remain entitled to a refund under Sections 14 and 17.
13. Order Cancellation — By Accesco Living
Accesco Living reserves the right to cancel an order in the following circumstances. In all such cases, a full refund will be initiated within the timelines specified in Section 15:
- Item unavailability: One or more items in your order are out of stock at the time of picking and no suitable substitute is available.
- No rider available: We are unable to assign a delivery partner within a reasonable time due to high demand or adverse conditions.
- Delivery address unreachable: The delivery address is outside our serviceable zone, inaccessible, or involves safety concerns for our riders.
- Payment failure: Payment could not be verified or processed, and the issue is not resolved within the retry window.
- Force majeure: Natural disasters, government-mandated restrictions, civil unrest, or other events beyond our reasonable control.
- Fraud detection: Our systems detect suspicious activity associated with the order or account.
- Regulatory restrictions: Delivery of certain items (e.g. age-restricted products) where verification cannot be completed.
In the event of a cancellation by Accesco Living, you will be notified via push notification, SMS, and email as soon as the cancellation is confirmed. A full refund will be processed automatically — you do not need to raise a request.
14. Refund Eligibility
- Your order was cancelled within the applicable cancellation window (Section 12).
- Accesco Living cancelled your order for any reason (Section 13).
- Your order was never delivered and is confirmed lost by our system.
- You received an incorrect item that you did not order.
- You received a damaged, spoiled, or unusable item.
- You received an item significantly different from its description on the platform.
- The delivered quantity was materially less than what you paid for.
- A food order from Swadisht arrived with a confirmed foreign object or quality issue.
- A LocalMeds order contained an expired medication or incorrect prescription item.

- A Swadisht order was significantly delayed beyond the committed SLA and you still received the order.
- An InstaStyle item has a manufacturing defect discovered after delivery (within the return window).
The refund amount will be the amount paid by you for the affected item(s), inclusive of applicable taxes and the proportionate delivery fee for that item where delivery was the sole purpose of the order. Delivery fees are non-refundable if at least one item in a multi-item order was correctly fulfilled.
15. Refund Process & Timelines
- Refunds are credited to the original payment method used at the time of purchase.
- Alternatively, with your preference, refunds may be credited to your Accesco Living Wallet for instant availability.

16. Non-Refundable Situations
The following situations are not eligible for a refund. Please review carefully before placing your order.
- Change of mind: You no longer want the item after the cancellation window has passed.
- Incorrect address: Delivery was attempted and failed due to an incorrect address provided by you, and the order was returned.
- Customer absence: Delivery was attempted but you or your representative were not available to receive the order, and the item is perishable (Grokly / Swadisht).

- Misuse of promotional credits: Refunds will not include cashback, referral credits, or discount vouchers used at the time of purchase.
- Clearly disclosed non-returnable items: Products marked as 'non-returnable' on the product page (e.g. certain personal care items, undergarments in InstaStyle, opened medications in LocalMeds).

18. Returns — InstaStyle (Fashion Vertical)
InstaStyle supports returns for eligible fashion items within 7 days of delivery. To be eligible for a return:
- The item must be unworn, unwashed, and in its original condition.
- All original tags, labels, and packaging must be intact.
- The item must not be on the non-returnable list (visible on the product page at time of purchase).

- Customised or personalised items.
- Items damaged after delivery due to customer handling.
InstaStyle's 'Trial at Your Doorstep' feature allows you to try selected items before purchase. Items returned under a Trial at Your Doorstep session are not treated as a 'return' — you simply hand the item back to the rider at the time of delivery. No refund request is necessary; you are only charged for items you keep.
Once a return request is approved via the app, a rider will be assigned to collect the item within 24–48 hours. Refunds are initiated within 24 hours of the returned item being quality-checked at our dark store.
19. Returns — LocalMeds (Pharmacy Vertical)
Due to the nature of pharmaceutical products and regulatory requirements under the Drugs and Cosmetics Act, 1940, most medicines and pharmacy products cannot be returned or exchanged once delivered. Exceptions apply only where Accesco Living is at fault.

- Wrong medication dispensed — differs from the prescription or order placed.
- Damaged packaging that compromises the integrity of the medication.
- Medication quantity is short of what was billed.
- Order was cancelled by Accesco Living due to prescription verification failure.

- You may cancel your subscription at any time from the app via Settings > Subscription > Cancel.
- Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing cycle — you retain access to benefits until then.
