SHIPPING POLICY
At Simple Botanica, we’re committed to ensuring that your natural skincare experience begins the moment you place an order. This Shipping Policy outlines how we process, dispatch, and deliver your order across India.
1. Order Processing Time
All orders are processed within 1 to 3 business days after we receive your order confirmation. This includes time for packing, quality checks, and preparing your shipment.
- Orders are not processed or shipped on Sundays or public holidays.
- In case of high order volume or unforeseen delays, processing may take slightly longer. If so, we’ll keep you informed via email or WhatsApp.
2. Shipping Charges and Free Delivery
We offer free shipping on all prepaid orders above ₹499 across India.
For orders below ₹499, a nominal shipping fee will apply, calculated at checkout based on your delivery location.

Once shipped, delivery times are approximately:
- Metro Cities: 3–5 business days
