Ajio Complaint

Ajio complaints commonly involve receiving an item that appears used, tampered with, or missing original tags despite being sold as new, along with the standard refund-delay and delivery-delay issues seen across fashion e-commerce.

What Is It

Receiving a used, tampered, or previously-worn item sold as new is a clear breach of contract and consumer rights — it is treated more seriously than a simple size mismatch and typically qualifies for a full refund rather than just a replacement.

When To Use It

Escalate if: the item shows signs of prior use or tampering; original tags/packaging seals are missing despite being sold as new; or a refund/replacement request was rejected without proper inspection.

Step-by-Step Process

  1. 1Photograph the item immediately on opening, showing the missing tags/tampering clearly, before any further handling.
  2. 2Raise a return request in-app citing 'item not as described / used condition' with these photos attached.
  3. 3If rejected, contact Ajio support and explicitly request escalation to the Grievance Officer.
  4. 4File with the National Consumer Helpline (1915) if unresolved.
  5. 5For persistent disputes, proceed to e-Daakhil for formal consumer court filing.

Documents Required

  • Unboxing photos/video showing the condition of the item
  • Order ID and invoice
  • Return request screenshots and rejection reason if any
  • Support chat transcript

Fees

Free up to the National Consumer Helpline stage.

Processing Time

In-app return resolution: a few days once evidence is reviewed. Grievance Officer escalation: up to 1 month.

Important Tips

  • Unboxing photos taken before removing any packaging are your strongest evidence for a 'used item sold as new' claim.
  • Don't wear or wash the item before the return is processed — this can void your claim even if your complaint is valid.

Frequently Asked Questions

Your unboxing photos/video timestamped at delivery are the deciding evidence here — submit them directly to the Grievance Officer, not just the standard return flow.
