dealer of Maruti Suzuki India Limited at Hyderpora, Srinagar, namely M/s
JamkashVehicleades, the spare-parts and other vehicle accessories were checked
for mandatory declarations as are required to be printed on the label by the
Manufacturer/Packer/Importer under Legal Metrology (Packaged Commodities)
Rules, 2011.
It was found that
certain imported products like Reverse Assist System (Display Slash Camera)
carrying an MRP of Rs 9700/-, was without a mandatory declaration

must carry on its label the country of origin for the awareness and knowledge
of a consumer. Usage of Non-Metric units for size/net contents is a serious
offence.
A Legal Notice was served to the company and the company in response to
the notice confessed to the lapse and requested for compounding of the offence
departmentally instead of referring it to the court of law. Dy. Controller
Legal Metrology Department slapped a penal sum of Rs 50,000/=for the lapse.
