Frequently Asked Questions

How can I get a piece customised?
You can write to us at infourbanpataka@gmail.com with details about the piece you would like and your phone number so we can connect via WhatsApp. For all customisations, there are additional charges depending on your requirements.
Which size should I choose?
At Urban Pataka, sizes may be based on the Indian or International sizing system. To help you identify your size, we provide a detailed Size Chart.

You can also click on “Size Chart” on every product page. We understand that every body is unique — that’s why we include a custom measurement dialogue box where you can input your own measurements, and we’ll customise your garment accordingly.

For further assistance, please email us at infourbanpataka@gmail.com or WhatsApp us at +91 98319 00324.
Where are my orders shipped from?
All orders are shipped from our flagship warehouse in Kolkata, India.
How do I know that my order is confirmed?
Once your order is placed, you’ll receive an email confirmation and may be contacted before dispatch. We’ll also share tracking details and updates on your shipment via email, and our team will assist you with any queries post-ordering.
How much time will my order take to reach me?
We try our best to ship all pieces within 3–4 weeks. Customised orders or out-of-stock products may take longer, and we’ll inform you of the estimated delivery date after your order. Delivery time depends on location, logistics, and partner courier timelines. We’re not liable for courier delays but will help you track your order if required.
How do I order if you do not ship to my location?
If your location isn’t covered by our logistics partners, we’ll contact you to find an alternative shipping solution. For help, please email us at infourbanpataka@gmail.com.
How can I cancel my order?
We do not allow order cancellations. Once your order is placed, it’s immediately processed.
How do I return my order?
As we specialise in handcrafted products, we don’t accept returns once an order has been processed. Each piece is made with time and skill by our artisans. However, if you’ve received a damaged product, please contact us — we’ll verify and issue a refund where applicable.
How do I exchange my order?
We only accept exchange requests for damaged products, reported within 48 hours of delivery.
  • If a piece is exchanged once, it cannot be exchanged again.
  • Made-to-order items are non-returnable and non-exchangeable.
  • Products bought on sale are not eligible for exchange.
  • For international exchanges, shipping and customs costs (both ways) are borne by the customer unless the product is damaged.
Can I place an international order?
Yes, we ship worldwide. International shipping charges apply and will be visible at checkout.
What do I do if my international payments are not going through?
We use Razorpay as our payment gateway. If you face issues, contact us at infourbanpataka@gmail.com. Alternatively, you can use PayPal, though an additional 5% fee will apply to your total order value.
How am I charged for customs for an international order?
Customs duties and VAT are applied as per the laws of your destination country and must be paid by you. If you decline to pay, your package may be destroyed by local authorities and will not be refunded.

Since customs rates vary globally, please contact your local customs office before placing an order to avoid unexpected charges.
Can I exchange an international order?
Yes, if eligible. However, all shipping and customs costs for returning and resending items must be borne by the customer. Urban Pataka covers shipping only in case of verified product damage confirmed via email.
Do you retail through physical stores?
Yes, we have our flagship store in Kolkata, India.
How do you promote sustainable and fair trade?
We launch two main collections annually, focusing on timeless, seasonless designs. Our mission is to create investment pieces — versatile, high-quality garments made to last for years. Every piece reinterprets Indian craftsmanship with modern silhouettes, ethical production, and a sustainable philosophy. We aim to give a fresh, contemporary edge to age-old crafts while supporting fair trade and conscious fashion.
