1.100% Wholesale & B2B Exclusivity
VM Imitation operates exclusively as a B2B manufacturer and bulk supplier for jewellery stockists, multi-store retail showrooms, regional distributors, online sellers, private labels, and overseas importers. We do not engage in retail consumer sales. All buyers must purchase in master wholesale lot/carton configurations.
2.Quotation Validity & Raw Material Pricing
Because imitation jewellery manufacturing costs fluctuate based on raw virgin brass eco-alloy prices, high-grade electroplating chemicals, gold micron targets (22K micro plating), and stone setting complexity (Swiss CZ / Kundan / Stones):
- All factory quotations issued via WhatsApp or proforma invoices remain valid for 7 business days from the date of issue unless specified otherwise.
- Prices quoted are Ex-Factory (Rajkot) unless explicitly structured as CIF or FOB in formal export proforma agreements.
- Applicable GST (currently 3% on imitation jewellery) is charged extra on all domestic dispatches as mandated by Indian taxation laws.
3.Minimum Order Quantity (MOQ) & Packaging Tiers
To maintain factory efficiency and supply consistency, standard order tiers apply:
- Standard Wholesale Catalogue Stock: Minimum 1 master carton per dispatch (mixed product configurations supported for qualified showroom buyers).
- Bulk Dealer Supply: 5 to 20 cartons per dispatch with prioritized production queue allocations.
- Custom Private Label OEM Moulds: Indicative MOQ of 10,000 pieces per proprietary master mould series.
4.Production Lead Times & Custom OEM Sampling
Production schedules begin only after mutual approval of physical pre-production samples and receipt of the agreed commercial advance deposit:
- Ready Catalogue Inventory: Dispatched within 24 to 48 hours of payment confirmation.
- Scheduled Wholesale Production Batches: 7 to 15 working days depending on casting volume and stone-setting intricacies.
- Custom OEM 3D CAD & Master Die Development: 15 to 30 calendar days from CAD sign-off to full container/carton dispatch.
5.Payment Terms & Statutory Invoicing
Commercial payments must adhere strictly to verified corporate banking channels:
- Domestic Wholesale: 100% advance remittance via RTGS / NEFT / IMPS against Proforma Invoice prior to final transport dispatch.
- Custom OEM Manufacturing: 50% mobilization advance upon CAD & mould approval; 50% balance against Pre-Dispatch Optical Inspection Report.
- Statutory Billing: All consignments are accompanied by official GST Tax Invoices (GSTIN: 24AOKPV5629N1Z5) with detailed HSN codes and E-Way bills.
6.Packaging, Transit Risk & Domestic Freight
Every VM Imitation parcel is sealed with export-grade moisture barriers, multi-ply corrugated cartons, and anti-tamper security straps. Freight is typically booked via buyer-nominated transport agencies (To-Pay basis) or verified express couriers. Consignments travel under buyer transit insurance unless transit insurance is explicitly contracted and invoiced in advance.
7.International Export Consignments (Dubai, UAE & Worldwide)
For overseas jewellery importers in Dubai/UAE, GCC, the UK, USA, Canada, and global markets:
- We facilitate 4-Day Express Air Cargo to Dubai International Airport (DXB) and major international air hubs.
- All export documentation (Commercial Invoice, Packing List, Shipping Bill, Certificate of Origin) is provided.
- Import tariffs, local VAT/customs duties, and port clearance procedures at destination are the sole responsibility of the consignee.
8.Inspection, Damage Claims & 48-Hour Video Requirement
VM Imitation enforces a rigorous 3-tier optical inspection protocol covering alloy casting porosity, plating luster, stone prongs, and lock durability. To protect both parties against transit mishandling:
- Mandatory Unboxing Video: The buyer must record an uninterrupted 360-degree unboxing video from the initial unopened outer carton seal to piece inspection.
- 48-Hour Reporting Window: Any manufacturing defect or transit damage claim must be reported to our WhatsApp support (+91 99133 97888) within 48 hours of delivery.
- Remedy: Verified defective pieces will be replaced in the next dispatch or credited via a formal credit note. Cash refunds are not issued.
