Lack of action by MRP officials
I reported on Aug 23rd list of all brands that are charging GST on MRP when there is a discount. Here we are on Jan 14th and the list of companies below and many more are still doing it. Why has the MRP department not been taking action? Why are the MRP officials in every state not raiding these companies stores who are misleading consumers with 50% discount but in reality only giving 38%.
If the consumer minister and the prime minister are serious about consumer rights, then actions must be taken on the basis of consumer reports.
Brands charging GST on discounted MRP:
Myntra
Jabong
Lifestyle
Shoppers Stop
Woodland
Puma
Pantaloons
Central
First cry
Brand Factory
Vishal Mart more

Business man community has been made to loot and contribute towards party funds FOR ALL YEARS TILL NOW !MAKING LAWS WON'T AFFECT THEM AS ITS LEFT TO BUYERS ! THERE ARE TWO ALTERNATIVES 1) REDUCE BUYING AFTER VISITING SHOPS TELLING 'YOU ARE CHEATS'! 2) ENGAGE AUTHORISED PLAIN DRESSED CHECKERS FROM AMONG CITIZEN WHO NEED NOT ACT BY HELP OF ANY AUTHOEITY WITH A COUNTER LAW IF ANYONE ABUSES HE WILL BE PUNISHED ! WILL LOKSABHA AND RAJYA SABHA BE SENSIBLE TO PASS SUCH LAW? I FEEL RAJYA SABHA MEMBERS ARE NON INDIANS TO BLOCK ANY NEHRU PASSED LAW! more

Regrets to know that no action has been taken by authorities concerned but it is expected in future also. Departmental staff is to get salary only without any duties assigned to them for which they are bound to do. more

It is very unfortunate that despite reporting several times, the Govt has not taken any corrective action. What to talk of complaints, even State Commission and National Commission have adjudicated against such unfair business practices and we only expect a notification from the Government taking strict action against such unfair business practices. The only solution now seems to filing a class action suite but the unfortunate part is that people do not complain. Sometime back I appealed the consumers to make complaint so that the class action suite could be filed. But it has no response from the consumers. more
