CCPA Fines Coaching Institutes for Misleading NEET and JEE Advertisements

The Central Consumer Protection Authority (CCPA) has fined coaching institutes Motion Education and Career Line Coaching (CLC) Sikar a combined Rs 15 lakh for misleading advertisements related to NEET and JEE results. Investigations revealed these institutes used photos of students who often enrolled in free or post-exam courses to falsely promote paid programs. Authorities found instances of undisclosed course details and exaggerated success claims, prompting action against over 30 institutes and intensified government monitoring of coaching centers nationwide.
