Snapdeal fined ₹5 lakh for selling non-safe toys lacking BIS certification, despite being ordered to comply.
The Central Consumer Protection Authority (CCPA) fined Snapdeal ₹5 lakh for allowing non-compliant toys—lacking mandatory Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) certification—to be sold on its platform, violating the Toys (Quality Control) Order, 2020.
The penalty followed a suo-motu probe revealing that non-compliant toys remained available as late as December 2025, with Snapdeal earning ₹41,032 in fees from two sellers.
The CCPA rejected Snapdeal’s claim of being a passive marketplace, citing its active role in promotions and quality assurances.
It ordered Snapdeal to ensure future compliance, display grievance officer details prominently, and prevent further sales of unsafe toys.
The action is part of broader enforcement targeting e-commerce platforms and sellers over toy safety violations.
