Commercial Terms and Manufacturing Order Information
Apparel Manufacturing Commercial Terms, Sampling, Order Approvals and International Sourcing Procedures
Last Updated: 11 October 2026
1. Introduction
Mirthuni Apparel Sourcing Service provides apparel manufacturing and sourcing support for clothing brands, importers, retailers and private-label businesses.
Our commercial arrangements are designed around custom apparel development, material sourcing, manufacturing coordination, quality inspection and export shipment preparation.
Because each manufacturing project may involve different fabrics, garment constructions, quantities, customisation requirements and delivery destinations, commercial conditions are evaluated individually.
This page provides general information about our apparel manufacturing commercial terms and standard order coordination practices.
Final prices, payment arrangements, delivery schedules, shipping responsibilities and other binding commercial conditions are confirmed separately through the applicable quotation, pro forma invoice, purchase order or other accepted written agreement.
2. Scope of Our Commercial Services
Our services primarily support custom knitted apparel manufacturing and sourcing.
Product categories include:
Regular-fit, oversized and drop-shoulder T-shirts
Polo shirts and knitted tops
Hoodies and sweatshirts
Joggers and knitted trousers
Knitted shorts and casual bottoms
Loungewear and sleepwear
Selected children’s and baby garments
Other approved apparel categories
Depending on the project, services may include fabric sourcing, technical development, sampling, manufacturing coordination, private labelling, printing, embroidery, quality monitoring, packing and export shipment support.
Manufacturing is undertaken through selected production partners according to the approved order requirements.
3. Business-to-Business Manufacturing Arrangements
Mirthuni Apparel primarily operates on a business-to-business basis.
Our customers may include:
International apparel brands
Startup clothing labels
Fashion retailers
Importers and distributors
Private-label businesses
Corporate and promotional garment buyers
Established apparel sourcing organisations
Orders are generally developed and priced according to the buyer’s product specifications rather than through a standard online retail checkout.
Submitting an enquiry does not automatically constitute an accepted manufacturing order.
4. Minimum Order Quantities
Minimum order quantities depend on garment category, fabric construction, colour requirements, material sourcing conditions and production feasibility.
Our general starting MOQ for core knitted apparel is:
300 pieces per colour per style.
Certain product categories or material arrangements may require different minimum quantities.
Examples include:
Selected children’s apparel: generally 400 pieces per style per colour
Certain flannel fabric programmes using available mill options: approximately 500 pieces per colour
Custom yarn-dyed fabric developments: approximately 1,000 pieces per colour
These quantities are general sourcing guidelines, not universal commitments.
Smaller trial orders or alternative quantity arrangements may be evaluated individually, subject to manufacturing feasibility and written confirmation.
The final accepted MOQ is stated in the relevant quotation or order agreement.
5. Product Specifications and Enquiry Requirements
To evaluate a manufacturing enquiry, buyers are encouraged to provide:

The responsible party for each charge is determined by the agreed commercial terms and applicable law.
Buyers should confirm import requirements with their customs broker or other qualified adviser.
Preferential tariff treatment, where available, depends on satisfying the relevant rules of origin and documentation requirements.

22. Order Cancellation and Project Discontinuation
Custom apparel manufacturing may involve dedicated material purchases, development work and production activities.
Accordingly, cancellation or discontinuation arrangements cannot be treated in the same manner as ordinary ready-stock retail purchases.
The treatment of advance payments, committed materials, work in progress, completed goods and other relevant costs depends on the accepted commercial terms, documented circumstances and applicable law.
This page does not establish an automatic refund entitlement, a non-refundable deposit rule or a fixed cancellation charge.

Material supply delays
Buyer approval delays
Production interruptions
Testing or inspection requirements

26. Official Communication Channels, Payment Verification and Fraud Prevention
26.1 Authorised Company Communication Channels
Mirthuni Apparel Sourcing Service conducts official business communications exclusively through its authorised company email domains and designated business WhatsApp number.
Our authorised email domains are:
@mirthuniapparel.com
@massindia.in
Our official business WhatsApp number is:
+91 9940675791
Official communications concerning quotations, sampling, purchase orders, manufacturing instructions, payment requests, shipping arrangements and commercial agreements must be verified through these authorised channels.
An email address using one of our official domains must also belong to an authorised representative of Mirthuni Apparel Sourcing Service. The appearance of a company domain or name alone does not establish the authenticity of a communication.
26.2 Unauthorised Communication Channels
Mirthuni Apparel Sourcing Service does not authorise business transactions or binding commercial instructions through:
Personal email accounts, including Gmail, Yahoo, Outlook or other private email services
Personal or unverified WhatsApp numbers
Unauthorised WhatsApp groups or channels
Facebook Messenger, Instagram direct messages or other social media messaging services
Unverified third-party representatives, agents or intermediaries
Other communication channels not expressly confirmed through our official company contacts
Any person claiming to represent Mirthuni Apparel through an unauthorised channel must be independently verified before the buyer takes action.
Mirthuni Apparel does not accept responsibility for unauthorised representations, fraudulent communications or transactions conducted by unrelated third parties, except to the extent responsibility arises under applicable law.
26.3 Official Bank Account and Payment Instructions
All payments to Mirthuni Apparel Sourcing Service must be made exclusively to an authorised company bank account held in the name:
MIRTHUNI APPAREL SOURCING SERVICE
Bank account details are communicated through official company channels and the relevant authorised commercial documentation.
We do not authorise payments to:
Personal bank accounts of employees, representatives or other individuals
Bank accounts held under unrelated company or individual names
Unverified third-party accounts
Personal digital wallets or payment addresses
Any bank account not independently confirmed as an authorised account of Mirthuni Apparel Sourcing Service
Buyers must verify the beneficiary name and bank account details before transferring funds.
Payments made to unauthorised accounts will not automatically be recognised as payments received by Mirthuni Apparel Sourcing Service.
Any dispute or liability relating to such payments will be assessed according to the verified circumstances and applicable law.
26.4 Changes to Bank Account Details
Buyers should treat any unexpected request to change beneficiary details, bank account numbers, banking locations or payment instructions as a potential fraud risk.
No change to payment instructions should be acted upon solely because it appears in an email, forwarded message, attachment, WhatsApp message or social media communication.
Before making a payment to changed account details, buyers must independently confirm the instruction using previously verified official company contact information.
A message appearing to originate from an authorised email address may still be fraudulent if an account has been compromised or the sender has been impersonated.

Buyers should verify that commercial documents are issued or confirmed through our authorised company communication channels.
This includes:
Quotations and revised quotations
Pro forma invoices
Sampling invoices
Purchase order acknowledgements
Payment instructions
Balance payment requests
Shipping and export documentation
Requests to amend beneficiary or delivery details
Documents received through an unverified source should not be relied upon without independent confirmation.
26.6 Fraudulent Representation and Impersonation
Mirthuni Apparel Sourcing Service does not authorise any unrelated person or organisation to use its name, logo, identity, company registration information or commercial documents to solicit payments or enter into transactions without permission.
If a buyer receives a suspicious communication claiming to represent our company, the buyer should stop the proposed transaction and seek verification through our established official contacts.
We reserve the right to take appropriate action concerning impersonation, misuse of company identity and fraudulent representations.
26.7 Buyer Responsibility for Verification
Before making payments or acting on significant commercial instructions, buyers are encouraged to:
Verify the sender’s complete email address and domain
Confirm that the WhatsApp number is our designated official business number
Match the bank beneficiary name with MIRTHUNI APPAREL SOURCING SERVICE
Independently verify any change to bank details
Avoid transferring funds based solely on social media or personal messaging requests
Retain copies of verified quotations, invoices and payment confirmations
These verification measures are intended to reduce fraud risks and protect both parties.
