Consumer Commissions Order Compensation for Undelivered Parcel and Gold in India
Two consumer commissions in India ruled against service providers for failing customers. In Telangana, a courier company was ordered to refund Rs 18,000 and pay Rs 60,000 compensation after a 24.33-kg parcel of sarees and groceries sent to the US was never delivered, causing mental distress. In Himachal Pradesh, a jewellery shop was directed to return 32 grams of gold and pay Rs 35,000 after failing to deliver promised bangles or return the original gold, with the commission citing deficiency in service and unfair trade practices.
