Every one is having the same problem. In my case, I have two spare stove at home which was presented during my house warming cermony. I am also having the same problem. They are asking me to produce 'Warrenty Card', which I don't have, since it was a present. Is there any way to get the connection without buying stove ? Is there any contact numbers for the authorties for compliants ? I am residing in Velachery and my distributor is Muthu Agencies. My mail id is [protected]@yahoo.com. If you have any solutions, please provide me the same.
I too face the same problem, please suggest some way out.
