We inform you of the NoC in your live India Customer Area or in a dispute webhook. You then have seven days to respond.<\/p>\n If you defend the dispute, Billdesk allows for 60 days to reject or accept your defense. If no chargeback is booked after 60 days, you can consider the dispute as won. However, the issuer can disagree and initiate a pre-arbitration even after 60 days. If this happens, the Adyen Support Team will contact you directly.<\/p>\n For more information, see:<\/p>\n Adyen India policies:<\/p>\n\n
