What to Focus On
- Every person is a consumer in daily life.
- A consumer may buy goods or use services.
- Consumer Protection Act identifies two consumer categories.
- MRP is the maximum price that can be charged.
- Standard marks help identify quality products.
- Imitation copies packaging and logos to cheat buyers.
- Adulteration reduces purity and safety.
- An adulterant is the added inferior substance.
- Careful checking of colour, smell, taste, and appearance helps detect adulteration.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
A consumer is only a person who buys goods, not someone who uses services.
MRP can include extra taxes or service charges, so a shopkeeper may charge more than the printed price.
If a product has an 'IS' mark or a similar-looking logo, it must be genuine.
