The Union Ministry of Consumer Affairs has amended the Legal Metrology (Packaged Commodities) Rules, 2011.
With this, companies are now required to print ‘unit sale price’ on packaged commodities.
The new amendment will be applicable from April 2022.
With this move, it will be easier for consumers to find the cost in unit terms.
Under the amendment, companies that are selling packaged commodities with a quantity of more than one kilogram are required to print ‘unit sale price’ per kg along with its maximum retail price (MRP).
