In India, consumer protection is specified in the Consumer Protection Act of 2019. Under this law, separate Consumer Disputes Redressal Forums have been set up in every district across India, in which a consumer can file his complaint on a simple paper with a nominal court fee. And their complaint will be decided by the presiding officer of the district level. A complaint can be lodged by the consumer of both a good and a service.

Appeals can be filed to the State Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission and then to the National Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission (NCDRC). The procedures in these tribunals are relatively less formal and more people-friendly and reduce the time taken by the traditional Indian judiciary of years. In comparison, it also takes less time to decide consumer disputes. In recent years, several effective judgments have been passed by some State and National Consumer Forums.
