INTRODUCTION
Consumer Protection Act (1986)
The consumer protection act was passed by the Parliament in
1986.The act came into force on 15th April, 1987.In 1993, the act
was amended for the first time. Thereafter, it was further amended
in 2003. This Act extends to the whole of India except to the state of
Jammu and Kashmir.
‘Consumer protection’ refers to protect the consumers against unfair trade practices
such as adulteration of consumer-goods, misleading advertisement, under-weight,
over changing etc. of the manufacturers and sellers.
Consumer is the user of goods & services who pays for the goods &
services which he uses and is entitled to expect the quality and
nature of goods & services promised to him by the seller.
Manufacturers owe a duty to the ultimate consumer taking care in
making their goals where there is no likelihood of their being
examined before they reach the ultimate consumer. In today’s mass
production economy there is a little contact between seller &
consumer in a difficult positions with very few avenues for
redressal. The intense competition satisfaction and hence by and
large the principles of “Consumer is King” is now expected- a
transition from the principles of ‘eaveate emptor’ to ‘caveate
vinditor’.
How is consumer exploited?
There are many ways by which consumers are exploited. A few of them are:
1. Selling at higher prices -- The price charged for the product will not be
proportionate to the quality;
2. Product risk -- Drugs that are hazardous, banned or beyond expiry date, electrical
appliances with inadequate safety precautions, etc.
3. Adulteration -- This is very common in food items and could prove to be highly
injurious to one's health.
4. Sub-standard Products -- Items whose quality is far below the required standard.
5. False Claims -- Manufacturers make false representations about their products in
the media with a view to mislead the consumers.
6. Warranty/Annual Maintenance Contract --In many cases, though the product will
have a warranty or will be under annual maintenance contract (AMC),when a
problem arises, the consumer is told that certain parts will not be covered and they
will have to pay.
The Consumer Protection Act, 1986, is definitely a blessing for consumers wronged
by manufacturers or dealers. Numerous complaints about defective goods have been
heard by consumer fora over the years. Though recourse is available to consumers
through this benign legislation, manufacturers and dealers should realise their
responsibility towards society and ensure that quality goods are produced.

Dutiful consumer
The three R’s of a Dutiful Consumer are:
I. Reduce: Consumeonly what you need, if possible
reduce consumptionof water, electricity, fuel and
other non-renewable.
II. Reuse: If a product can serve you for a longer period,
use it instead of buying a new one.
III. Recycle: Don’t litter the environment please recycle
degradable or recyclable materials through scrapdealers
RECOMMENDATIONS
According to the survey conducted I found that almost every
consumer first check the expiry date on the food items and
medicines when they buy different products. Therefore, it
should not only be mandatory to the food items and
medicines but also to the cosmetics bought and other
different items.
Most of the People do not cross check the weights of the
products mentioned on the items. Thus it is recommended
that people should check the weight and then purchase the
item.
So, to conclude I feel that a consumer have several rights and
duties and carry authority to complain whatever is going
wrong.

  • 4. INTRODUCTION Consumer Protection Act (1986) The consumer protection act was passed by the Parliament in 1986.The act came into force on 15th April, 1987.In 1993, the act was amended for the first time. Thereafter, it was further amended in 2003. This Act extends to the whole of India except to the state of Jammu and Kashmir. ‘Consumer protection’ refers to protect the consumers against unfair trade practices such as adulteration of consumer-goods, misleading advertisement, under-weight, over changing etc. of the manufacturers and sellers. Consumer is the user of goods & services who pays for the goods & services which he uses and is entitled to expect the quality and nature of goods & services promised to him by the seller. Manufacturers owe a duty to the ultimate consumer taking care in making their goals where there is no likelihood of their being examined before they reach the ultimate consumer. In today’s mass production economy there is a little contact between seller & consumer in a difficult positions with very few avenues for redressal. The intense competition satisfaction and hence by and large the principles of “Consumer is King” is now expected- a transition from the principles of ‘eaveate emptor’ to ‘caveate vinditor’.
  • 5. How is consumer exploited? There are many ways by which consumers are exploited. A few of them are: 1. Selling at higher prices -- The price charged for the product will not be proportionate to the quality; 2. Product risk -- Drugs that are hazardous, banned or beyond expiry date, electrical appliances with inadequate safety precautions, etc. 3. Adulteration -- This is very common in food items and could prove to be highly injurious to one's health. 4. Sub-standard Products -- Items whose quality is far below the required standard. 5. False Claims -- Manufacturers make false representations about their products in the media with a view to mislead the consumers. 6. Warranty/Annual Maintenance Contract --In many cases, though the product will have a warranty or will be under annual maintenance contract (AMC),when a problem arises, the consumer is told that certain parts will not be covered and they will have to pay. The Consumer Protection Act, 1986, is definitely a blessing for consumers wronged by manufacturers or dealers. Numerous complaints about defective goods have been heard by consumer fora over the years. Though recourse is available to consumers through this benign legislation, manufacturers and dealers should realise their responsibility towards society and ensure that quality goods are produced.

  • 21. Dutiful consumer The three R’s of a Dutiful Consumer are: I. Reduce: Consumeonly what you need, if possible reduce consumptionof water, electricity, fuel and other non-renewable. II. Reuse: If a product can serve you for a longer period, use it instead of buying a new one. III. Recycle: Don’t litter the environment please recycle degradable or recyclable materials through scrapdealers
  • 22. RECOMMENDATIONS According to the survey conducted I found that almost every consumer first check the expiry date on the food items and medicines when they buy different products. Therefore, it should not only be mandatory to the food items and medicines but also to the cosmetics bought and other different items. Most of the People do not cross check the weights of the products mentioned on the items. Thus it is recommended that people should check the weight and then purchase the item. So, to conclude I feel that a consumer have several rights and duties and carry authority to complain whatever is going wrong.
