1Delivery Coverage & Service Areas

  • Margo Deliveries currently operates within Thane West, Maharashtra. The App will display available restaurants based on your GPS location or manually entered delivery address.
  • Delivery is available during restaurant operational hours, typically between 7:00 AM and 11:00 PM IST, unless otherwise specified by individual restaurant partners.
  • Areas outside the serviceable zone will not have active restaurant listings.
  • Zae Food Private Limited reserves the right to suspend or restrict delivery in certain areas without prior notice due to safety, weather, or operational constraints.

2Delivery Timeframes & Tracking

  • Estimated Delivery Time (EDT) is displayed at checkout and is typically 20–60 minutes depending on restaurant preparation time, distance, and demand.
  • EDT is an estimate only. Actual delivery may vary due to traffic, weather, and other conditions. Margo Deliveries does not guarantee delivery within the EDT.
  • Once your order is dispatched, live GPS tracking is available in the App under "Track Order."
  • Significant delivery delays (over 30 minutes beyond EDT) will be communicated via push notification or SMS.
  • In case of extreme delays (over 60 minutes beyond EDT), you may contact support for assistance or cancellation.
Contactless Delivery: Where selected by the user, delivery partners will leave the order at the door and notify you via the App. Margo Deliveries is not responsible for order quality or safety after a contactless drop.

3Delivery Charges

  • Delivery charges are calculated based on distance, demand, and applicable platform policies. The exact delivery fee is displayed at checkout before payment.
  • A platform fee may also be applicable and will be disclosed at checkout.
  • Free delivery promotions are subject to minimum order values, specific restaurants, and promotional periods.
  • During peak hours or inclement weather, a surge delivery fee may be applied and will be disclosed at checkout.
  • Delivery charges are non-refundable unless the cancellation is due to a fault on Margo Deliveries' part (e.g., no delivery partner available, restaurant cancellation).
