FREE BAJAAO 2-YEAR STANDARD WARRANTY PLAN

BAJAAO FREE 2 YEAR STANDARD WARRANTY PLAN

WHAT IS IT?

We are offering a voluntary service that extends the manufacturer's warranty period (usually 12 months) to a full 24 months - at our own cost.

Bajaao’s exclusive FREE 2-year standard warranty comes "in the box" with nearly every product we sell.  This means your purchase is automatically protected for two years from the date of delivery of the product. And if your manufacturer's original warranty is greater than two years, our warranty won't adversely affect it. ( Please note- All Vault products, and Yamaha and Casio Keyboards, come with 3 year standard warranty)  

WHY ?

To provide hassle-free warranty support for ALL purchases.

In 2017, Bajaao set the standard in the industry when we set up our Service Centre with skilled service technicians, and built a repair network with the service centres of most of our brands.  Since 2017, Bajaao has been the only seller providing free tech-support and a premium warranty service.  

However, as an authorized dealer for over 200 brands, we have observed that the quality of standard manufacturer warranty in India varies greatly by brand, making it difficult for some customers to avail dependable warranty support. Therefore, to provide hassle-free support and secure the purchase of all our customers, we have introduced this voluntary FREE 2-Year Standard Warranty covering all brands and categories ( excluding Software and Accessories) w.e.f. 15th July 2020.

HOW IS THIS PLAN DIFFERENT FROM THE MANUFACTURERS WARRANTY INCLUDED IN THE PRODUCT?

 

WHO IS ELIGIBLE FOR THIS PLAN? 

The Free 2 (TWO)-Year Standard Warranty plan is offered free on the purchases  made on all products (excluding software, accessories and personal/home audio categories ) purchased from the web portal www.bajaao.com. Orders placed on and after July 15th, 2020 are automatically covered under this plan.

*Note:  For orders placed before July 15, 2020 standard manufactures warranty for 1 (one) year will apply. Read terms and conditions here.

*Note: Most products come with a 1 year standard warranty plan but few brands like Vault, Yamaha and Casio (Keyboards only), Audio-Technica and Behringer come with a 3-year standard manufacturer warranty plan. The Bajaao warranty does not adversely affect this. For these products, Bajaao shall cover its standard warranty terms upto three years.

 

WHAT ARE THE FEATURES OFFERED IN THIS PLAN?

  • Bajaao will service/repair the covered product free of cost and get it back to working order as long as the reason for malfunction is not a warranty exclusion. If any part needs replacement during the servicing or repair process, the customer is responsible for bearing the nominal charges associated with the replacement but need not for the labor.
  • Customers only deal with Bajaao for any claims and need not interact with the manufacturer directly at any point during the plan term.

 

WHAT IS THE TERM OF THE PLAN?

The “Plan Term” is for two years commencing from the day of delivery of the covered product. The warranty shall immediately and automatically terminate if the same has not been availed/claimed for 2 years.

BAJAAO PREMIUM WARRANTY PLAN

Apart from the free 2-year standard warranty plan, Bajaao offers an exclusive 1 & 2-Year Premium Warranty plan to all its customers.

 

HOW IS IT DIFFERENT FROM THE FREE 2-YEAR BAJAAO’S STANDARD WARRANTY?

HOW TO PURCHASE PREMIUM WARRANTY?

You have the choice to opt for ‘Premium Warranty’..either for 1 or 2 years, on the relevant product page while making a purchase.

Your Products will come with a Bajaao “Premium Warranty Card” which is your certificate of purchase, along with the duration of the warranty. This card will also include Bajaao’s Premium Warranty contact information, and your warranty contract’s terms and conditions.

 

HOW DOES IT WORK?

  • Warranty period begins from the date of delivery.
  • Bajaao becomes your one and only point of contact for repair & servicing this product.
  • To claim Premium Warranty, retain the warranty certificate that is shipped with the product. If you have a product issue simply call Bajaao on your Premium Warranty card +91-22-42035353 Extension 3 (10 AM - 7 PM) and allow Bajaao's Service Engineers to take it over from there.
  • Bajaao Premium Support will then try to troubleshoot over the phone or video call, and if unable to resolve, will have your product shipped back to Bajaao’s warranty repair and service centre. This (level 1) servicing is done by experienced in-house servicing professional.
  • Bajaao will send a courier to pick up/drop off the product from and to your home at Bajaao’s expense. Customers are, however, required to keep the original packaging, to prevent damage in transit.
  • If Bajaao service engineers cannot fix the issue in-house, they will directly work with the relevant manufacturer’s service centre to fix the issue. This process usually takes 30 working days, but in cases involving change/import of specific parts, the service time can take up to 45 working days. During the entire process, however, customers deal only with Bajaao.
  • If Bajaao is unable to repair the product, it will replace the product with a same or equivalent model available. No refund under any circumstances. Warranty on replaced unit is for 30 days or the remainder of warranty coverage (whichever is later).
  • Parts and Labour incurred to fix the product, and shipping of product to/from customer to Bajaao service centre are all borne by Bajaao. Customers bear no additional expense apart from their initial Premium Warranty purchase.

 

WHAT ARE THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THIS PLAN?

  • Coverage applies only if the product malfunctions under normal operation conditions.
  • Products are covered for manufacturing defects, but not for normal wear and tear and abuse/mishandling.
  • The plan begins from the date of delivery and is inclusive of the manufacturer’s warranty.
