Hi Guys. I haven't done website reviews at all so thought I will start with healthkartplus.com. It is a new venture from another very popular site healthkart.com, which is a very safe and reliable site. So when they rolled their other site, thought I will check it out. I am combining review of both the sites in one post.I regularly order from healthkart.com . I buy all cosmetics and beauty products.I recently ordered from healthkartplus.com too.Since it was my first order,I placed minimum order to check out if the service is good or not. I bought AHA Glow for Rs 199. The order was delivered in less than 24 hours at my doorstep with invoice at no extra taxes or shipping cost.I am pleasantly surprised by the service so I decided to review it.

Final Verdict:
1)healthkart.com
I have been shopping from healthkart.com for years now.They stock some very good brands and provide discounts too.Products are from fresh stock and delivered in good condition. White carton box with white plastic sheet wrapping is their signature packaging.Products are dispatched within 24-48 hours and delivered in 2-5 working days.They provide free shipping for order value above Rs.500 and they charge Rs.50 shpping charges for order value less than Rs.500.If the product is out of stock, they have notification system where you will be alerted via email/sms upon stock arrival.Generally stocks are updated on a regular basis.Actually I never came across complaints/issues with their orders.Till date I have not received damaged products,they always arrive in good condition.I only get confirmation and feedback call upon delivery.So it is one of my trusted sites.
2)healthkartplus.com
It is relative new site which provides pharmacy services at your door step.Both prescription and non-presciption medications are available.For prescription medications,you have to compulsorily provide prescription by uploading on the site/email scanned copy the prescription.One can easily buy products like AHAGlow, Trigaine Shampoo,Glomed Face wash, Suncote Gel Sunscreen etc without any hassles.Prompt delivery within 24 hours.Only issue with this site is delivery to limited cities only-Delhi/NCR/Mumbai/Bangalore/Chennai regions only.Guys don't worry,very soon it will be available in your cities too,they are still in the process of building it .As of now there is no shipping charge or minimum order value.This is relatively new site so they are still building and rolling our features.I also need to add that there are three major flaws on the site-1) That is most of the items do not match the product prescription so that can lead to some confusion.2) They also need to upload product pictures.3) The product was delivered in a healthkart paper bag but may be they could wrap it up in a box to protect the privacy of the items and the customer.I hope they look into soon.These are minor issues,other than that it is still a reliable site.So this is my new site addition to buy pharmacy products.They also have a app for windows/android/iOS which is a online pharmacy and drug database which you can download here.
