I visited a resort on the Dehradun Highway (NH 58) on May 19th. They charged me ₹30 for a water bottle, even though the MRP was ₹20. I have the bill. Can I do anything about this overcharge?

Yes, you can file a complaint with the Consumer Forum under the Consumer Protection Act, 2019. The resort’s action of charging a price exceeding the MRP is considered unfair trade practice and you can seek compensation for the overcharge.

Dear Sir, I recently booked a flat in Sector 93, Gurgaon. The agreement states that possession is due in January 2017, with a six-month grace period.

I bought a health insurance policy for my family, paying an initial premium of Rs. 17,000.

However, the insurance company rejected our application citing high blood pressure as the reason. Initially, they refused to refund my premium, but after I lodged a complaint with the IRDA, I received the refund after a month. Can I file a consumer complaint against them for the mental distress caused?

Next Article My wife and I were close to separating, but thankfully, things were resolved amicably. However, knowing her temper and tendency to be self-centered, I fear things could escalate again. We’ve covered all the marriage expenses without any financial contribution from her family. Yet, she remains dissatisfied. She’s simply not driven and doesn’t seem to care much. Before things get complicated, I want to clear everything legally. I’m planning to discuss with her family what we’ve given them and vice versa, putting it down in writing. I want to avoid any future problems for both our families, especially since we’ve invested a significant amount in this marriage. There’s a chance they might try to downplay our contributions. Is a pre-nuptial agreement the right approach to ensure everything is transparent and protected?
