Advocate K Shiva Ganesh filed a complaint regarding inflated prices on Zepto’s platform. The commission determined that this practice was misleading and constituted unfair trade. Zepto was directed to compensate the complainant and deposit funds into the legal aid account. The company was also instructed to discontinue such practices in the future.
