Background
In its effort to bring consumer protection at par with digital and technological advancements, in August 2019, India enacted the new Consumer Protection Act, 2019 (“New CPA”) to replace the three-decade old Consumer Protection Act, 1986 (“1986 CPA”). The New CPA has not come into effect as of November 2019, but upon coming into force will introduce new provisions regarding product liability, enhanced consumer protection and robust consumer dispute resolution.
