## TL;DR

Use the modal lifecycle callbacks in the Razorpay checkout options to detect dismissal, and run your cancel-order logic there. Razorpay exposes the modal lifecycle through its own checkout options instead.

## Steps

1. Do not try to watch the Razorpay modal's close button with your own click handlers: it lives in a sandboxed iframe your page cannot touch. Use the modal lifecycle callbacks in the Razorpay checkout options to detect dismissal, and run your cancel-order logic there. If your close detection silently never fires, the iframe boundary is the reason.
