Yes, a refund status can remain in a ‘pending’ state, particularly when the refund cannot be processed instantly. This state indicates that the refund has been accepted by Razorpay but is still being processed by the bank or payment network.The refund.processed webhook is the most reliable and recommended way to receive the final status update (Processed, Failed or Reversed).We strongly suggest implementing both the Refund API response handler (for immediate status) and the refund.processed webhook (for the definitive final status update) to ensure reliable status tracking and update your inventory/ledger accurately.
No, not all refunds return ‘processed’ instantly.
  • Instant Refunds (Optimum Speed): If the refund is successfully processed instantly, the API response will typically show a processed status immediately or shortly after.
  • Normal Refunds (Standard Speed) or Failed Instant Refunds: If the refund defaults to the normal processing speed (5-7 business days) or if the API call is synchronous but the bank processing takes time, the initial API response might return a pending status.
In all scenarios, rely on the refund.processed webhook for the final, verified status update to ensure your application records are correct.
