Why we charge for samples (and most “free sample” sites should be charging too)

If you’ve sourced from Indian suppliers before, you’ve probably noticed every IndiaMART listing offers “free samples”. That’s a lead-conversion tactic, not generosity — the cost of the sample is baked into either your eventual bulk price (you’re paying 1-3% more on the bulk to subsidize the free samples) or absorbed by the supplier discarding the time-wasters.

We charge a small fee + credit it back on bulk. Three effects:

  • Filters serious buyers from window-shoppers. A ₹1,500 commitment means you’re actually evaluating, not collecting samples to compare 20 suppliers.
  • Lets us afford premium dispatch. Air-freight ex-Delhi within 48 hours, not a 14-day surface mail trickle. You evaluate faster.
  • Keeps our bulk pricing tight. Sample subsidisation does not inflate the per-kg cost of your eventual order. Manufacturer-direct margin stays manufacturer-direct.

Frequently asked — sample program

What if my bulk order doesn’t happen within 60 days?
Sample fee is forfeited. Most buyers complete their evaluation in 3-4 weeks. If you need an extension, email our export desk before day 60 and we’ll extend to 90 or 120 days on case-by-case basis (typical reason: extended internal procurement approval).
Can I order a 100g or 500g “evaluation” sample if 10g is too small for my application?
Yes — for soap, candle, and detergent formulators who need ~50-100g for a single batch trial. Tier-priced; typically ₹3-8k for a 100-500g evaluation sample. Same credit-back rule on bulk order within 60 days.
Do samples ship internationally?
Yes — DHL/FedEx air courier from Delhi. Typical 4-7 days to USA, UK, EU, GCC, Australia. Some MSDS-restricted SKUs (e.g. flammable solvents) ship by surface freight only and take 14-21 days.
Do I get a real GC-MS COA on every sample SKU?
Yes — every sample ships with the per-batch COA for that lot. Same NABL-accredited third-party laboratory we use for bulk shipments. The COA is your audit trail for your own QA process.
