An Andhra Pradesh consumer forum has ordered Vishal Mega Mart to pay a penalty of ₹5.3 lakh. The action follows a complaint where customers experienced food poisoning after consuming a packet of Maggi purchased from the store that had already expired. Out of the total fine, the retailer is directed to pay ₹2.8 lakh to the affected customer, while the remaining ₹2.5 lakh is to be deposited into the state's relief fund as punitive damages.
