At Little Yay (operated by Shiyas S), we sell physical inventory-based products including stationery, paper goods, boutique toys, desk accessories, and lifestyle gifts.
Every product is physically stocked at our facility in Kollam, Kerala, quality-checked prior to dispatch, and securely packed for delivery across India.
Effective Policy
This policy was last revised in October 2026 and applies to all retail purchases made through our online store (littleyay.in).
Buyer-Initiated Cancellations:
Once your order is confirmed, our automated fulfillment system immediately allocates inventory, generates shipping paperwork, and queues your package for courier pickup. Because orders are processed promptly, we cannot support cancellations, order recalls, or item modifications once payment is completed.
Merchant-Initiated Cancellations:
In rare situations where an item cannot be fulfilled (such as an unforeseen inventory discrepancy, damaged stock discovered during pre-dispatch quality checks, or courier non-serviceability), Little Yay will notify you promptly and initiate a 100% full refund within 1–2 business days to your original payment method.
Duplicate Payments:
If your payment method is charged more than once for a single order due to a network or payment-gateway glitch, please contact us with your transaction references. Once confirmed, any verified duplicate payment is initiated for a full 100% refund within 1–2 business days.
Please Review Before Paying
Kindly review your delivery address, recipient details, and item quantities carefully before completing your payment.
To maintain the highest hygiene, cleanliness, and packaging standards for our stationery and gifts, we do not accept returns or issue refunds for change of mind, subjective preference, or accidental purchases.
However, this restriction does not limit your rights if you receive items that are damaged in transit, defective, or mismatched.
If your order arrives damaged, defective, missing an item, or containing an incorrect product, we are committed to making it right:
- 48-Hour Reporting Window: You must contact our customer support team within 48 hours of carrier delivery.
- Helpful Evidence: Please provide your Order ID and clear photographs or an unboxing video showing the shipping label, outer parcel condition, and the affected item.
- Return Shipping Costs: In all eligible cases of transit damage, manufacturing defect, or packing error, Little Yay arranges and bears all return and replacement shipping costs. Customers never pay return postage for our errors.
- Lost or Undelivered Parcels: If a courier partner confirms a parcel has been lost in transit or is returned due to a delivery exception, Little Yay will dispatch a fresh replacement or initiate a full 100% refund within 1–2 business days.
Prompt 48-Hour Notice
Reporting transit issues within 48 hours allows us to initiate claims with our courier partners and arrange your replacement without delay.
When a verified claim is confirmed for a damaged, defective, or incorrect product:
- Primary Resolution (Replacement): We will dispatch an identical, brand-new replacement unit at no extra shipping cost to you.
- Secondary Resolution (Full Refund): If the item is out of stock, discontinued, or cannot be replaced, Little Yay will initiate a full 100% refund of the purchase price and any applicable shipping charges within 1–2 business days.
