This product, sold by dashmesh trading through flipkart, was received by me with the label deliberately scratched out. Why would a seller want to deliberately scratch out the label? So that the buyer should not see the details of the mrp, the date of expiry, etc? This shows an ulterior motive with a view to cheat the customer.
It has been over a week since i first reported this matter to flipkart. Despite assurances that "strict action would be taken against the seller" no action has been taken against the seller. He continues to sell his products on flipkart’s website. Therefore, it is reasonable to assume that flipkart is in colluding with the seller in cheating the customers. No one has yet got in touch with me to resolve the issue

This product, sold by “blush” on flipkart’s website, is priced at rs 595 for an 783ml bottle. The bottle shows 25% bonus. The price of a 621ml bottle is rs 499. 25% of 621ml is 155.25ml. This, added to 621ml, is 776ml (Close to 783ml). Therefore, the vendor should not have charged rs 595, but rs 499. This is downright cheating.
Further, all products sold in india, even if imported, are required, by law, to carry an mrp. This product does not carry an mrp which is a contravention of indian law and is liable to legal action and damages.
It has been over 10 days since i first reported this matter to flipkart. Despite assurances that "strict action would be taken against the seller" no action has been taken against the seller. He continues to cheat the customers by charging the customers for the 25% free portion of the product. Therefore, it is reasonable to assume that flipkart is in colluding with the seller in cheating the customers. No one has yet got in touch with me to resolve the issue
