Amazon Herbicide Case: CCPA Cites 38,410 Orders and ₹96.43 Lakh in Sales

New Delhi: The CCPA’s order against Amazon contains figures that show the scale of consumer exposure in the Cyclosinone Herbicide case. The regulator cited 38,410 orders involving 43,634 units, with aggregate sales of about ₹96.43 lakh.

What do the figures show?

The numbers cited in the order indicate that the product had reached a substantial number of buyers through the platform before the regulatory proceedings concluded. The CCPA examined the listings, their claims and the regulatory status of the product.

The product was marketed as a granular weed-control product. The authority’s proceedings focused, among other things, on missing information about the active ingredient, chemical identity and regulatory compliance.

Action ordered by CCPA

The authority directed Amazon to discontinue the relevant sale and advertising and undertake a self-audit to identify similar products that could violate applicable law or pose consumer safety concerns.

The CCPA order archive is available at ccpa.doca.gov.in. For more technology, business and consumer updates, visit NewsNationOnline.
