The refundable security deposit (₹3,000–₹5,000) is returned separately within 48 hours of car return and is not affected by cancellation of the booking itself.

What happens if I don't complete my KYC document upload before pickup?

Your documents (DL + Aadhaar) must be uploaded and approved before your scheduled pickup time. If documents are not uploaded and verified in time, the handover cannot proceed. Contact the Drigo team on WhatsApp (+91 95720 90249) immediately if you are having trouble uploading — the team can guide you through the process. To avoid any last-minute issue, complete your KYC upload at least 2 hours before your pickup time.
