3. Warehousing & Fulfilment Refunds
- Contract Termination: In the event of contract termination by either party, Prozo shall issue a pro-rata refund of any prepaid storage fees for the unused portion of the contracted period.

- Overpayment: Any overpayment identified during billing reconciliation shall be refunded within 15 business days of confirmation by both parties.
- Service Failure (SLA Breach): Where Prozo fails to meet agreed warehousing SLAs (e.g., order processing time, inventory accuracy, dispatch timelines), SLA credits shall be applied to the next billing cycle. Service failures do not entitle the client to cash refunds unless expressly provided in the contract.
- Inventory Damage by Prozo: If goods stored in a Prozo-managed warehouse are damaged due to Prozo's negligence, Prozo shall compensate the client up to the declared value per unit as stated in the inbound records. The client must file a claim within 7 calendar days of discovering the damage, accompanied by photographic evidence and proof of declared value.

Once the amount is validated by the finance team after thorough reconciliation, the refund shall be processed via NEFT within 7 working days.
- Freight Overcharges: Disputes related to weight or dimension discrepancies must be raised within 7 days of invoice receipt. Prozo shall complete the dispute resolution process within 10 business days, and any confirmed overcharge shall be issued as a credit to the wallet or refunded to the client's bank account.
- Failed Delivery Due to Prozo Fault: Where a delivery fails solely due to an error attributable to Prozo (e.g., misrouting, carrier non-attempt despite correct address and availability), the applicable shipping charges shall be reversed in full.
- COD Remittance: Cash-on-delivery remittances shall be processed per the remittance cycle defined in the client's contract. Disputes regarding COD remittance amounts must be raised within 7 days of the scheduled remittance date.

- SLA Breach (Delivery Time Exceeded): Where Prozo exceeds the committed delivery time as defined in the SLA, credits shall be applied to the client's account in accordance with the agreed SLA terms and penalty structure.
