The Supreme Court of India had ruled that "the object is to bring honesty and truth in the relationship between the manufacturer and the consumer" and "if the general impression conveyed is false, the most punctilious and scrupulous accuracy in immaterial minutiae will not render the representations true. This is often violated and nobody punished in India for the last 50 years
Yet, Duping the Customer is routine and unchecked. You have to be on your guard.

In common parlance, I am a MBA from IIM, Ahmedabad. They do not teach any unethical advertising or business strategy. Such devious things are however a reality on the Streets / Corporate World. I left the Corporate World in disgust in 1982. |
