Abstract
In this paper an attempt has been made to analyze the Kautilya’s views on matters related to consumer
protection. Kautilya suggests various policies that state should follow to protect its consumers. These policies are highly
relevant to modern times also. Kautilya stressed on the importance of fair trade practices. He also laid down fines for
adulteration and supply of goods of an inferior quality.
