11. CONSUMER EXPLOITED
Due to the expansion of business activities in an
economy, we have a variety of goods available in the
market. The demand for goods and services is
influenced by the advertisements in television,
newspaper and magazines. The companies spend a
considerable amount on a advertisements alone
attract consumers and feed information that they
want us to know, but not the information that we as
consumers want. When we, as consumer, do not have
sufficient information about the products, we
normally get exploited and are sometimes even
harassed by business community.
12. CONSUMERS ARE EXPLOITED BY
TRADERS AND MANUFACTURERS
•Underweight and Under- measurements
• Sub-standard Quality
• High Prices
• Duplicate Articles
• Artificial Scarcity
• False or Incomplete Information
13. FACTORS CAUSING EXPOLATION OF
CONSUMERS
• Limited Information
• Limited Supplies
• Limited Competition
• Low literacy
14. Limited Information: In a capitalist economy, producers and sellers
are free to produce any goods or services in any quantity and there is
no regulation on the prices. In the absence of information about
different aspects of the products, namely, price, quality, condition of
use, etc., the consumers are liable to make a wrong choice and lose
money
Limited Supplies: The consumers are exploited when the goods
and services are not available in the required quantity or numbers.
This gives us rise to hoarding and price-escalation.
Limited Competition: When only one producer or group of
producer or a group of persons controls the production and supply of
a product, and is in a position to restrict the availability of supplies,
there is a possibility of manipulation in prices and availability.
Low Literacy: illiteracy is one of the major drawbacks that lead to
the exploitation of consumers. The level of literacy directly affects
the level of awareness about products and the market.
15. The Consumer Protection Act, 1986
Is a unique piece of legislation as it provides a separate
three-tier quati-judicial consumer dispute redressal
machinery at the national, state and district level. The Act is
intended to provide simple, speedy and inexpensive
redressal of the consumers grievances. In terms of the Act,
the Central Government first constituted the Central
Consumer Protection Council (CCPC) on 1.6.1987 and it has
been reconstituted from time to time. The CCPC was last
constituted in May, 2003 for three years. So far, the Council
has held 23 meetings. The last meeting was held on
16.7.2003. The State Govts./UT Administrations are
required to establish the Consumer Protection Councils at
the State level as well as at District levels to strengthen
consumer movement a the grass root level.
16. Responsibility of a Consumer
The Consumer has the RESPONSIBILITY to
protect himself/herself by:
> Shopping carefully and wisely.
> Understanding the terms of the sale.
> Reading and following instructions.
> Getting guarantees in writing.
> Saving Receipts.
> Asking question at point of sale.
> Keeping informed about new products.
