1. WHAT IS THE ESTIMATED DELIVERY TIME?

 

Once we get the pleasure of serving you with our products, ready for shipping items take approximately 15 to 20 days, whereas the customized products will take up to 4 to 7 weeks to be delivered to your doorstep. While we try our best to ensure that the product reaches you safely and sound within the delivery time communicated, any predicament may result in a delay. If such a situation arises, please do not worry and get in touch with us for an update at info@vakrstudio.com if we have not notified you already.

2. HOW DO I TRACK MY ORDER?

 

Since our company uses a Third-Party vendor for shipping, the delivery time may vary as per the place of delivery and Government holidays. Nonetheless, you will get a call from the Courier Company/Logistics partner confirming the provisional date and time of the delivery for your order, including the tracking details of the product. Though we cannot guarantee that the shipping vendors will act in conformity with our ethos, we can guarantee to help you every step of the way. Please feel free to write us an email at info@vakrstudio.com.

 

The delivery agent will deliver the goods to your building premises/ house wherever it is physically possible to do so. Unfortunately, for higher floors, we are not equipped to deliver. If such a need arises, we urge you to arrange for a workforce at your end for a hassle-free job. The responsibility of our Courier Company/Logistics partner comes to a halt for orders above the ground floor.

 

Before ordering our products, please keep in mind the sizes mentioned on our website to see if the furniture you are ordering will fit into the entryways and rooms. We shall not be liable for any discrepancy arising because of the size. Furthermore, for any failed delivery attempts, inclusive of refusal to accept the product or unavailability, we do levy extra charges. If you are aware of the unavailability (in case of prior commitments or travel), please feel free to inform us in advance so that we can plan the shipping and delivery at your convenience.  

 

Please note that we work around the clock so that goods delivered to you are in a spick and span condition; we secure them with wooden crates. These crates may cause some undue inconvenience but are unavoidable. It is our request for customers to kindly open the products themselves and inspect the same. Any defect or damage must be reported to the delivery personnel and our Studio Intrigue customer care immediately. Kindly mention the Invoice number along with Proof of Delivery at info@vakrstudio.com. The Delivery Personnel are not obliged or authorized to open the furniture or packages. Please note that their duty is to deliver the goods to the customer and they are not directly employed with Studio Intrigue.  You are requested to cooperate with them and not force them to open the crates, packages etc.

 

In situations where you need a Goods and Service Tax (GST) Invoice, kindly email the billing details within 03 days of placing your order. E-mail:  info@vakrstudio.com

 

We reserve the right not to deliver an order if there is a reasonable apprehension that the address is not secure. If this affects an order you place, we will get in touch with you as soon as possible.

 
 

3. HOLDING COST or DELAYED DELIVERY CHARGES

​

If on your request, the order has been withheld at our warehouse, holding costs will be applied.

Extra charges will be levied for the weekend or specific time deliveries.

Once the order has reached your nearest delivery center and you fail to receive the products, we will hold the products for 10 days. After this timeline, Studio Intrigue shall be free to charge for holding the products for longer, post this, a “Holding Cost” or “Delayed Delivery Cost” will be applicable to your total order on a monthly basis.

We will notify you via an e-mail with a detailed breakup of the charges levied (on a monthly basis) and/or bill you pro-rata for the number of days (if it's less than a month that the order delivery has been withheld on your request).

The holding cost is calculated at a rate of 5% against the total value of the order. Further bifurcation includes 18% GST applicable for this service.

We will only be able to dispatch the order after the payment of the holding cost.
