Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can I return clothes after wearing them once?

A: No. Myntra's return policy requires items to be unused, unwashed, and with original tags. Returning worn items will result in rejection and the item being sent back to you.

Q: How long does Myntra quality check take?

A: Typically 2-4 days after the returned item reaches their warehouse. You'll receive status updates via email/SMS.

Q: What if my return is wrongly rejected?

A: Provide unboxing video, challenge the rejection via email to grievance officer, and escalate to consumer forum if needed with all evidence.

Q: Can I get a replacement instead of refund?

A: Replacement depends on product availability. If unavailable, you'll receive a refund. You can always place a new order for a different size/variant.

Q: Is Myntra wallet refund mandatory?

A: No. For prepaid orders, you can request refund to original payment method. It's your choice, don't let customer support force wallet credit.

Q: How do I prove the item was defective from delivery?

A: Unboxing video is the strongest evidence. Take comprehensive photos immediately after opening. Compare with product listing screenshots.
