About Consumer Complaint

If you face any issue with a service or product you've paid for, you want a quick resolution with the seller. If they don't provide a satisfactory resolution, you can file consumer complaint online against the seller. “The Consumer Protection Act of 1989” provides various rights and protections to Indian consumers. By exercising these rights, a consumer can take a business or service provider to court for not delivering a satisfactory product or service or engaging in any fraudulent activity.

We recommend sending a legal notice to the seller as the initial step before filing a consumer complaint. If the seller ignores it or doesn't take action to resolve the problem, you can proceed with the consumer complaint to seek compensation, refund, and relief under the law.
