Terms & Conditions
These Terms & Conditions govern your access to and use of our website, procurement portals, product catalogs, and B2B pharmaceutical supply services. By accessing our website, creating a B2B buyer account, requesting quotations, or placing purchase orders, you agree to be legally bound by these Terms.
Commercial & B2B Nature of Services
Aethex Healthcare operates strictly as a B2B pharmaceutical distributor and supply chain partner. Our platform and supply operations are designed exclusively for verified commercial, institutional, and professional entities, including hospitals, licensed clinics, retail pharmacies, government health agencies, and registered wholesalers.
- No Direct-to-Consumer (D2C) Sales: We do not supply or process orders for individual retail consumers.
- Product Range: We supply general healthcare products, Over-the-Counter (OTC) items, surgical disposables, as well as prescription pharmaceuticals (including Schedule H, H1, and regulated categories) strictly to legally authorized buyers.
Regulatory Licensing & Account Verification
Compliance with applicable drug control and taxation laws is mandatory for all transactions.
- Mandatory Documentation: Before any order for prescription or regulated pharmaceuticals is confirmed or dispatched, the Buyer must provide valid copies of their Drug Licenses (Form 20/21 or applicable regional equivalents), GSTIN registration, and details of the authorized pharmacist/signatory.
- License Validity: The Buyer warrants that all submitted licenses and registrations are active, valid, and in good standing. The Buyer agrees to notify Aethex Healthcare immediately if any regulatory authority suspends, cancels, or alters their license status.
- Order Cancellation: Aethex Healthcare reserves the right to suspend or cancel any order or buyer account if drug license details cannot be verified, are expired, or violate statutory regulations.
Quotations, Pricing & Order Acceptance
- Price Variations: Product listings, prices, and stock availability displayed on www.aethexhealthcare.com or preliminary price lists are indicative and subject to change without prior notice due to manufacturer price revisions, market availability, or tax updates.
- Binding Orders: A purchase order submitted by the Buyer becomes binding only upon issuance of an official written Order Confirmation and Performa/Tax Invoice from Aethex Healthcare.
- Right to Refuse: Aethex Healthcare reserves the right to refuse, limit, or modify order quantities based on batch allocations, regulatory quotas, or stock shortages.
Payment Terms, Credit & Retention of Title
- Payment Methods: Payments must be made via authorized banking channels, including NEFT, RTGS, IMPS, or approved online payment gateways. Cash payments are strictly prohibited.
- Credit Terms: Credit facilities are granted solely at the discretion of Aethex Healthcare following credit approval and written agreement.
- Late Payment Interest: Invoices not settled within the agreed payment term shall attract interest at the rate of 18% per annum (or the maximum rate permitted by law), calculated daily from the due date until full payment is received.
- Retention of Title (Ownership): Title and legal ownership of all supplied pharmaceuticals remain with Aethex Healthcare until the invoice amount has been paid in full. Risk of loss or damage transfers to the Buyer upon delivery as set out in Section 5.
Dispatch, Delivery & Cold Chain Logistics
- Delivery Locations: Deliveries are made exclusively to the registered commercial address specified in the Buyer's verified drug license. No deliveries will be made to residential or unverified locations.
- Cold Chain Management: Temperature-sensitive products (2°C–8°C) are dispatched using insulated packaging and cold-chain indicators. The Buyer must immediately store these products in compliant refrigeration upon arrival.
- Transit Delays: Estimated delivery times are approximate. Aethex Healthcare is not liable for transport delays caused by logistics partners, customs clearance, transit checkpoints, or weather disruptions.
Inspection, Returns & Claims
