The Consumer Protection Act 2019 Comes Into Force From Today

The provisions of the Consumer Protection Act, 2019, which give new heights to consumer rights, will come into effect from today. It will replace the Consumer Protection Act, 1986. Under the new law, a consumer can register a case in any consumer court. Provisions like fines and jails on misleading advertisements have also been added to it. For the first time, online business has also been brought under its purview.

This law was first to be implemented in January, which was later marched. In March it could not be implemented due to Corona outbreak and lockdown. Now from July 20, the government has issued a notification to implement it. After its implementation, action will be started immediately on the consumer complaint. Especially now, ignoring the interests of consumers in online business can also be overshadowed by companies.

These are important provisions:
