What legal action can be taken against over charges on products?
I recently bought curd on which the MRP is printed as ₹10, but the shopkeeper demanded ₹12. Is this legal?
Dear client, no changing more than the printed MRP is generally considered illegal. You can complain to the consumer helpline, legal metrology department or you can also file a consumer complaint with the bill or photo as a proof I hope this answer your query, for further queries contact us.
Charging above MRP is illegal under Legal Metrology Act, 2009. If MRP is ₹10, seller cannot demand ₹12. You can complain to the District Legal Metrology Officer or Consumer Commission for overcharging. You may seek refund and penalty against the shopkeeper. For further legal assistance contact us on our helpline number.
