6. Limitation of liability

In no event shall India.ch and Marketing with Singh, nor employee, be liable to you for anything arising out of or in any way connected with your use of this Website, whether such liability is under contract, tort, or otherwise, and India.ch, including its employee, shall not be liable for any indirect, consequential, or special liability arising out of or in any way related to your use of this Website.

In no event shall India.ch or the vendor be liable for (i) slight negligence, (ii) indirect and consequential damage and subsequent damage and loss of profit, (iii) unrealised savings, or (iv) damage resulting from delivery delay, or (v) any acts and omissions on the part of auxiliary persons of India.ch or the vendor, be this contractual or non-contractual.

  • b) use of incompatible spare parts or accessories (e.g. power supply);
  • c) failure to maintain and/or improper modification or repair of the products by our customers or a third party;
  • d) force majeure, particularly natural hazards, moisture, shock and impact etc. that are not caused by India.ch or official orders.

7. Contract conclusion

Products and prices stated in the online shop are deemed to constitute offers. However, these offers are always subject to the inability to deliver or incorrect price quotations, both of which lead to contract cancellation.

A contract for products or services from India.ch shall be deemed concluded with India.ch as soon as an order has been placed by the customer in the online shop, by telephone or e-mail (hereinafter referred to as “contract”).

For products and services offered by a vendor, the contract is concluded between the vendor and the customer as soon as an order has been placed by the customer in the online shop, by telephone or e-mail. India.ch only acts as an intermediary for these purchases. India.ch only mediates in the sales and acts as intermediary and service provider for vendors, but does not act as contracting party for the customer.

Customers can see in the online shop and on the invoice who the supplier or rather the contracting party for any purchase is (either India.ch or the vendor).

The receipt of an online order is indicated to the customer by means of an automatically generated order confirmation from India.ch to the e-mail address provided by the customer. The receipt of the automatically generated order confirmation does not constitute a commitment that the product will be delivered. It solely notifies the customer that the placed order was received by the online shop and a contract was therefore concluded with India.ch or the vendor under condition of deliverability and correct price quotation.

8. Delivery date

Together with the order confirmation, the customer is either provided with a provisional delivery date or is contacted so that an individual delivery date can be arranged.

If delivery by India.ch or the vendor is delayed, customers are entitled to withdraw from the contract (with the exception of special orders) as of the 30th from the originally scheduled delivery date. In this instance, India.ch shall refund the customers any payments they have already made. No further claims towards india.ch or the vendor apply.

9. Delivery

Products and services purchased from India.ch or a vendor can only be shipped to a customer and cannot be collected.

The delivery address in Switzerland or Liechtenstein must be easily accessible by truck. If this is not the case, the customer must bear any additional costs.

If the customer chooses the option “delivery to place of use”, it is the customer’s responsibility to ensure the place of use is accessible. The customer must verify that the product fits through any entrances, for instance staircases, doors, etc. If the product cannot be transported to the place of use, the customer shall bear any additional costs.

Should the customer refuse to accept the ordered products on the arranged or provided delivery date, India.ch or the vendor may withdraw from the contract (cancellation) and charge the customer for the delivery costs and any loss of value.

10. Customer obligation to inspect products

Customers are obliged to immediately inspect the delivered or collected products for correctness, completeness and potential transport damage.

If the delivery is carried out by a service partner, the customer must state the defect on the delivery note.

The customer shall inform India.ch of any defects, or false or incomplete deliveries, immediately after detection thereof and within five calendar days after receipt of the delivery/collection at the latest. This also applies to products and services by vendors. The customer is aware that this information needs to be given via e-mail. The customer must retain the product in the condition it was delivered in and may not use it.

11. Indemnification

You hereby indemnify to the fullest extent India.ch from and against any and all liabilities, costs, demands, causes of action, damages, and expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees) arising out of or in any way related to your breach of any of the provisions of these Terms.

12. Severability

If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable or invalid under any applicable law, such unenforceability or invalidity shall not render these Terms unenforceable or invalid as a whole, and such provisions shall be deleted without affecting the remaining provisions herein.

13. Variation of Terms

India.ch is permitted to revise these Terms at any time as it sees fit, and by using this Website you are expected to review such Terms on a regular basis to ensure you understand all terms and conditions governing use of this Website.

14. Assignment

India.ch shall be permitted to assign, transfer, and subcontract its rights and/or obligations under these Terms without any notification or consent required. However, you shall not be permitted to assign, transfer, or subcontract any of your rights and/or obligations under these Terms.

15. Entire Agreement
