Terms Index & Protocol
Acceptance of Terms
By accessing this website, utilizing our configurator tools, or placing an inquiry or commercial order with Awadh Karigiri, you formally agree to be bound by these terms and conditions. If you do not agree with any part of these terms, please refrain from using this website or initiating commercial transactions with us.
Wholesale & Export Orders
All product categories listed on this website are subject to minimum order quantities (MOQ) as specified per category. Final commercial pricing, payment terms, production lead times, and freight details are confirmed directly with our sales team via WhatsApp, telephone, or official email prior to order finalization and are not displayed as fixed retail prices on this public website.
Product Variation & Craft Character
As authentic Lucknowi Chikankari is hand-embroidered by individual artisans on traditional wooden addas, slight variations in stitch placement, embroidery density, knot tension, and finishing between individual pieces are normal, expected, and inherent to the craft.
Sample Approval & Private Labeling
For bulk production batches, custom apparel grading, and private label orders, we strongly recommend a paid sample approval round (strike-off) prior to initiating full manufacturing. Once a physical or digital strike-off sample is formally approved and production cutting commences, structural alterations to specifications cannot be accommodated without revising lead times and commercial pricing.
Payment Terms & Settlement
Payment schedules are agreed upon directly between Awadh Karigiri and the buyer for each consignment, formalized within the Proforma Invoice (PI). Terms vary based on order size, customization degree, buyer verification, and whether the order is executed under domestic (Pan-India) or international export protocols.
Shipping & Logistics Protocol
Estimated manufacturing lead times and courier durations shared on this website or in trade catalogs are indicative and subject to adjustment based on batch complexity, total yardage, destination customs clearance, and freight carrier delays beyond our reasonable control. Please consult our Shipping & Returns Policy for full logistical details.
Intellectual Property Rights
All content presented on this website — including brand trademarks, photography, digital swatches, atelier configurator designs, graphic assets, and editorial copy — is the exclusive intellectual property of Awadh Karigiri unless otherwise stated, and may not be reproduced, republished, or exploited without prior written authorization.
Limitation of Liability & Force Majeure
Awadh Karigiri is not liable for indirect losses, commercial delays, or transit damages arising from circumstances beyond our reasonable control, including but not limited to third-party shipping courier delays, airport/sea port customs holds, import restrictions, or force majeure events.
Governing Law & Jurisdiction
These terms and conditions are governed exclusively by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Republic of India. Any legal disputes or claims arising out of commercial transactions shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the competent courts in Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh, India.
