Refund & Cancellation Policy

Last updated 17 October 2026

At Desi Express, we aim to provide a transparent and convenient cancellation and refund experience.

Ride Cancellation

A ride may be cancelled before or after driver assignment, subject to the applicable cancellation conditions. Where a cancellation charge is applicable, the amount may be deducted from the payment made for the booking.

Food Order Cancellation

Food orders may be cancelled subject to the order status and preparation stage. Once an order has entered preparation or has been dispatched, cancellation may not always be possible.

Parcel Cancellation

Parcel bookings may be cancelled subject to the status of the pickup/delivery process. Once the parcel has been picked up or the delivery process has substantially commenced, cancellation may be subject to applicable conditions.
