Shipping policy

Last Updated: April 2026


1. Introduction

Angel Food Online Pvt. Ltd. is a technology-based food delivery platform that connects customers with local restaurants and facilitates the delivery of food through its logistics network. This Shipping & Delivery Policy governs how orders are processed, dispatched, and delivered to customers.

This policy is designed to ensure transparency, efficiency, and clarity regarding delivery timelines, responsibilities, and limitations. By placing an order through our application or website, users acknowledge that they have read, understood, and agreed to the terms mentioned in this policy.


2. Delivery Coverage Area

Angel Food operates within defined geographical service areas. Currently, services are available in Ajmer, Rajasthan, and may expand to additional cities over time.

The platform automatically checks whether a delivery location is serviceable based on the user’s entered address and pin code. Orders can only be placed if the delivery address falls within the operational radius of a partner restaurant and available delivery network.

Angel Food reserves the right to accept or reject orders depending on distance, location feasibility, safety concerns, or availability of delivery personnel in that area.


3. Order Processing and Dispatch

Once a customer places an order, the system forwards the request to the selected restaurant. The order is processed in the following stages:

  • The restaurant reviews and accepts the order.
  • Food preparation begins immediately after acceptance.
  • A delivery partner is assigned based on proximity and availability.
  • The delivery partner picks up the order from the restaurant and proceeds toward the delivery location.

The total processing and dispatch time may vary depending on restaurant workload, order complexity, and real-time demand. Angel Food does not control preparation time but ensures efficient coordination between all parties involved.


4. Estimated Delivery Time

The platform provides an estimated delivery time at the time of checkout. This estimate is calculated based on multiple factors, including distance, restaurant preparation time, and current order volume.

While Angel Food strives to meet the estimated delivery time, it should be considered an approximation and not a guaranteed commitment. External factors such as traffic congestion, weather conditions, and unforeseen operational challenges may cause delays.


5. Delivery Charges

Delivery charges are dynamically calculated based on several parameters, including:

  • Distance between the restaurant and delivery address
  • Order value
  • Demand and supply conditions (surge pricing)
  • Ongoing promotional offers or discounts

All applicable delivery charges are transparently displayed to the customer before order confirmation. Angel Food reserves the right to revise delivery fees at its discretion.


6. Real-Time Order Tracking

To enhance customer experience and transparency, Angel Food provides real-time order tracking within the application.

Users can monitor the progress of their order through different stages such as:

  • Order Accepted
  • Food Being Prepared
  • Order Picked Up
  • Out for Delivery
  • Delivered

In some cases, delivery partner details may also be shared to facilitate direct communication for smoother coordination.


7. Delivery Attempts and Customer Availability

Delivery partners will make reasonable efforts to deliver the order to the address provided by the customer. It is the responsibility of the customer to ensure they are available to receive the order.

If the customer is unreachable, does not respond to calls, or is not present at the delivery location, the delivery partner may wait for a limited time and attempt to contact the customer.

Failure to receive the order after reasonable attempts may result in order cancellation without any refund.


8. Failed Delivery Conditions

A delivery may be marked as failed under the following circumstances:

  • Incorrect or incomplete delivery address provided by the user
  • Customer not answering calls or messages
  • Customer refusing to accept the order
  • Safety or access issues at the delivery location

In such cases, Angel Food reserves the right to cancel the order. Since the service has already been executed, refunds may not be applicable.


9. Contactless Delivery

Angel Food may offer contactless delivery as an optional feature for user convenience and safety.

Customers can request that the order be left at a specified location such as a doorstep, reception, or security gate. Clear instructions must be provided at the time of placing the order.

Once the order is delivered as per the given instructions, it will be considered successfully completed, and Angel Food will not be responsible for any loss or damage thereafter.


10. Delays in Delivery

While Angel Food aims to ensure timely delivery, delays may occur due to factors beyond its control, including:

  • Traffic congestion or roadblocks
  • Weather disruptions
  • High order volumes during peak hours
  • Delays at the restaurant level

In such situations, Angel Food will make reasonable efforts to inform customers. However, the company shall not be held liable for delays caused by external or uncontrollable factors. Compensation, if any, will be provided at the sole discretion of the company.


11. Damaged, Incorrect, or Tampered Orders

Customers are advised to check their order at the time of delivery.

If the order is found to be damaged, tampered with, incorrect, or missing items, the customer must report the issue immediately through the app or customer support.

Upon verification of the complaint, Angel Food may provide a replacement, partial refund, or compensation depending on the nature and severity of the issue.

Delayed reporting of such issues may lead to rejection of the claim.


12. Order Completion and Responsibility Transfer

An order is considered successfully delivered when:

  • It is handed over to the customer directly, or
  • It is delivered at the location specified under contactless delivery instructions

Once delivery is completed, responsibility for the order transfers to the customer. Any claims related to delivery must be raised immediately at the time of delivery.


13. Third-Party Involvement Disclaimer

Angel Food acts as an intermediary platform facilitating services between customers, restaurants, and delivery partners.

  • Restaurants are responsible for food preparation and packaging
  • Delivery partners are responsible for logistics and transportation

While Angel Food ensures operational coordination and service standards, it shall not be held directly liable for issues arising due to third-party actions beyond its reasonable control.


14. Policy Updates and Modifications

Angel Food Online Pvt. Ltd. reserves the right to modify, update, or change this Shipping & Delivery Policy at any time without prior notice.

Users are encouraged to review the policy periodically to stay informed about any updates.
