ABSTRACT Consumer protection means protecting the rights of the consumer against various unfair trade practices. A consumer seeks protection, advice and information, when his rights are adversely affected. This study has been conducted in Coimbatore district about awareness of consumer rights among consumers, survey method of data collection has been used to collect primary data. Sample contains 200 respondents which have been selected by convenient sampling method. Percentage analysis, Chi-square Test and Friedman rank test have been used to analyze the data. Finally, this paper tries to suggest some measures that should be undertaken by the government, business houses and consumer themselves to protect the interest on the consumer. INTRODUCTION In a free market economy, it is said that consumers rule the economy through the pricing mechanism. But in reality the consumer is dictated by the unscrupulous trading community. He is the one who suffers most from various unfair trade practices such as adulterated and sub-standard goods, short weights and measures, wrong descriptions in advertising, damaged goods, higher prices, imperfect packaging, misbranding, black-marketing, hoarding and the like. Therefore consumer should be protected from such unfair trade practices in order to make possible a healthy economy in the country, which includes the welfare of the consumer. Consumer protection means protecting the rights of the consumer against various unfair trade practices. A consumer seeks protection, advice and information, when his rights are adversely affected.india is a vast country where a majority of consumer is poor, helpless and disorganized. Further the market in India is generally seller s market and it is very easy to deceive to the innocent consumers who seem to be neither knowledgeable nor well informed. The consumer needs support and protection from the unscrupulous seller. A common consumer is not in a position to approach a civil court for acquiring and an affordable speedy justice against his complaints. In order to tackle this, the government has lent its hands in a different way. The Central Government enacted a law in the year 1986 for the protection and welfare of consumers. Consumer s Protection Council is a social movement which seeks to protect and augment the rights of the consumer relation to the product and service. In a developing country like India, measures for consumer protection are very much required. The illiteracy and ignorance of the majority of consumers both in the rural and the urban areas provide opportunities for business communities to follow unfair trade practices. These have to be curtailed through various measures of the Government and other non-governmental organizations. Further, the consumers should be informed, guided and educated properly because of the technical complexity of consumer goods. OBJECTIVE OF THE STUDY To analyze the personal profile of the consumer To study the awareness of consumer rights among the general public 40 editor.researchscripts@gmail.com
2 To study the awareness of consumer protection act among the consumer in India REVIEW FROM RELATED STUDIES InduKarki and NeelamMehrotra (2008) analyzed the level of awareness regarding standard marks (ISI, Agmark and FPO), consumer rights, and acts association of the education of respondents with the awareness of standard marks, acts and rights. Data of 120 homemakers pointed out that awareness of ISI mark was highest among homemakers followed by Agmark. Relationship between education and the awareness of marks of the respondents was significant; it also revealed that awareness of right to choose was highest among homemakers. JatinderKishtwaria et al., (2006) in his comparative Study Of Consumer Awareness Among Males And Females Of Kangra District Of Himachal Pradesh revealed that a significant difference between the awareness level of the male and female respondents regarding consumer terminology and consumer protection laws. Male were more aware about the popular consumer terminologies than females Nidhi Gupta and PritiPanchal (2009) studied on extent of awareness and food adulteration detection in selected food items purchased by home makers; they concluded that respondents, awareness related to rights and responsibilities was good but poor related to food adulteration. Greater consumer vigilance and action alone can help improve the situation, but such efforts are not fruitful unless consumer themselves are aware of their rights and responsibilities. K. Singh et al (2010) investigated a comparative study of the awareness of provisions of consumer protection act among dental and medical professionals in Udaipur city, Rajasthan, India. The distribution of the study topics according to their gender, profession, level of education and type of practices which revealed that women had a slightly lesser awareness of consumer protection act compared to men among all the professionals men dedicate more time to regular practice. Hence, both professions need to update their understanding on consumer protection act and its amendments to be on a legally safer side. Thanulingum and Kochadai (1989) conducted a study on evaluation of consumer awareness in Madurai city. The results showed that majority of the consumers were aware of consumer protection act followed by consumer rights and consumer protection councils. But very few people were aware of approaching and lodging complaints to the councils and membership in the council. SCOPE OF THE STUDY The scope of the study reveals the Awareness of consumer rights among the consumer. It is confined with special reference to Coimbatore district.
