Introduction
Welcome to StoreDekho.

The terms "You", "Your", or "User" refer to anyone accessing or using the Platform.
This document is an electronic record published in accordance with the Information Technology Act, 2000 and does not require a physical or digital signature. By accessing or using the Platform, you enter into a legally binding agreement with StoreDekho and accept these Terms of Use ("Terms"), along with our Privacy Policy and any other applicable policies published on the Platform.
The Platform is not intended for use by minors (under 18 years of age) without parental or guardian supervision and express consent. StoreDekho reserves the right to refuse service, suspend accounts, or remove content at its sole discretion.
Prohibited uses
You must not use the Platform for fraudulent, criminal, or unlawful activity; to send or distribute illegal, offensive, hateful, defamatory, or obscene content; to transmit spam, viruses, or malicious code; or in any manner that violates applicable laws or causes harm to other users or third parties.
Services
The Platform enables you to avail the following services ("Services"):
- A personal, limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, and revocable privilege to browse and purchase consumer products — including pooja ghar items, hardware product and related products — on a business-to-consumer (B2C) basis for personal use only (not resale).
- Access to last-mile delivery of products, facilitated by individual stores on the Platform at their own discretion, for a service fee.
- Customer support for queries and issues related to your account and orders.
The Company may add, modify, or discontinue stores, products, or services at any time without prior notice. Availability of services may vary by city or region — please verify availability in your area before placing an order. The Company does not engage in unfair trade practices or arbitrary classification of users or delivery partners(if applied).
Eligibility to Use
The Services are available only to users who are 18 years of age or older, are not undischarged insolvents, and are otherwise competent to enter into a legally binding contract under the Indian Contract Act, 1872. If you are under 18, you may use the Platform only with the express consent and supervision of a parent or legal guardian.
You must not discriminate against delivery service providers on the basis of race, religion, caste, creed, national origin, disability, sexual orientation, gender identity, marital status, age, or any other ground unlawful under applicable law. Verified instances of such discrimination may result in immediate suspension of your account, without any liability on our part.
Account & Security
To access the full range of Services, you must register and create an account on the Platform. You are solely responsible for ensuring that all account information you provide is complete, accurate, and kept up to date. StoreDekho reserves the right to refuse or suspend access to Services if it has reasonable grounds to believe the information provided is false, inaccurate, or incomplete.
You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and are fully liable for all activity conducted under your account. Please notify us immediately of any unauthorised access or security breach. Failure to keep your credentials secure may result in you being held liable for resulting losses.
Payment Information
Accepted payment methods are displayed at checkout. We work with licensed third-party payment gateways to process transactions. By providing your payment details, you confirm that you are legally authorised to use the payment instrument and that its use does not violate any applicable terms or laws.
Company's liability on payments
We are not liable for failed transactions due to insufficient funds, incorrect payment details, expired cards, or circumstances beyond our reasonable control. We are also not liable for unauthorised transactions resulting from your failure to secure your payment credentials.
The payment facility on the Platform is an electronic payment processing service — it is not a banking or financial service. Your issuer may levy additional fees such as transaction charges depending on your payment method and account terms.
Beware of fraud
StoreDekho and its authorised representatives will NEVER ask for your debit/credit card number, CVV, OTP, UPI PIN, or ATM PIN. Be cautious of lookalike websites, payment links shared over social media, and unsolicited calls requesting financial information. Report fraud immediately to your bank, the nearest police station, and at cybercrime.gov.in.
Pricing
Products are sold at Indian Rupees, either at the Maximum Retail Price (MRP, inclusive of all taxes) or at a discounted price, as displayed on the Platform. Prices are subject to change without notice. All applicable charges — including delivery fees — are disclosed at checkout before you confirm your order. The Company does not manipulate the price of any product or service listed on the Platform. They are solely managed by the stores.
If you notice a pricing error, please bring it to our attention and we will endeavour to make the necessary correction promptly.
