anti profiteering complaints will be tough

The application form can be filed by anyone but requires granular details of all the pre-GST taxes levied on the product concerned. It asks for the HSN code of the product, actual pre- and post-GST price, along with MRP. Further, the form also requires information about comparative price at which other suppliers are selling the product. The consumer would also be required to fill in the field for “post-GST reduction in amount of tax per unit.”

“The government systems are cumbersome and usually always put consumers off from pursuing any matter. The complicated anti-profiteering form is no surprise considering our consumer grievance redressal system is mired in similar issues. more

It is clear that govt’s Real intention is different from claimed pro people declarations. Solution seeking is made cumbersome to deter them from taking action against their donors, business houses. No wonder we see wealth getting accumulated in the hands of few people. Wealth disparities will continue to grow. more  
Hello Mohit, thanks very much for bringing up such issue on this forum. Well...!!! Nation Building is not a days job it took around 300 years for America, What it is today. Also, we can find hell lot of hacks for operating Twi, FB and WA and its usage but not these things. It needs great courage, dedication and perseverance to be the part of Nation Building and giving your ounce in it. For simplicity being a common man you can take some old Bill copies may be a month or weeks old and take new Bills from the same merchandise I believe the difference will be quite notable for you to fill the Forms and bring such discrepancies to GOI notice. more  
anti profiteering law will be helpful if all the manufacturers,Wholsalers,Retail Traders prices are certified by cost accountant and they will be appointed/paid by Government just like special audit and within month on Emergency basis. the report should be given by Cost Accountant so that all the facts regarding the costs and profit margin will be highlighted. more  
AL the people who have written their comments so far seem to be not real--"COMMON MAN", which they talk about. The problem is that anything that we have to do for the country and for the common public is always DIFFICULT. Mainly because we don't really want to do anything which even partly empties our purses. more  
A person can file only a complaint on excess profiteering knowing well that he is charged more. He may not be able to give details of the pre-GST taxes levied on the product as every product is now sold to include GST. On mentioning the product and the manufacturer the Govt. system must automatically recognise the pre GST levy, HSN code ofthe product, actual pre-budget cost etcand the MRP. Since tax is levied on these products the Government department administering the tax must provide them to the complainant's form when it is submitted to the concerned authorities. With software used every where it is easy and not same as earlier to go through manually thousands of data. more  
Thanks for the suggestion. Your suggestion has been noted and will be examined. more
