What is Consequences of violating Legal Metrology Act for e-commerce packaging?
Nexa Consultancy | Startup & Finance Glossary
The Legal Metrology (Packaged Commodities) Rules mandate specific declarations on packaged goods sold online, such as MRP, manufacturing date, and country of origin. Non-compliance can lead to seizure of goods and penalties.
Startup Example: A D2C brand sells a cosmetic product online but fails to display the "Best Before" date on the product listing page. This is a violation and can attract penalties from the Legal Metrology department.
We guide D2C brands on these specific compliance needs.
