We have visited the restaurant on October 4, 2014. We ordered 2 water bottle (Bisleri)along with the food. The bottle have a MRP of Rs. 15 where as we were charged INR 25 per bottle + VAT + Service Tax.

Selling a product over MRP by the seller constitutes an unfair trade practice. Under the Weights and Measures (Packaged Commodities) Rules, all packed goods should carry certain essential information on the contents of the package, such as its weight or volume, the name and address of the manufacturer, the date of manufacture, and in case of food packages, the best before date and, of course, the MRP. Under the Consumer Goods (Mandatory Printing of Cost of Production and Maximum Retail Price) Act, 2006, guidelines has been provided so that the consumer can not charged over to the maximum price printed on the goods by the manufacturer.

to impose exemplary damage and asked the seller to pay the consumer punitive damages of Rs 15,000.
