Frequently Asked Questions

When will I receive my first Issue?

After you have placed your order, you should get a mail from us confirming the details of your order in the next few minutes.

Once received, the publication will process your order, take payment for your subscription, and fulfil the dispatch of each issue.

Your order is processed by indiamags.com within 24 hours of receipt of the order and the money. However, the process at the publishers end normally takes 4-6 weeks. Hence, one should buffer 6 weeks from the date of order placement to commencement of magazine delivery.
