The banana controversy doesn’t seem to end anytime soon. After releasing of video of himself complaining about the rate of two 2 bananas at JW Marriott Hotel in Chandigarh Bollywood actor Rahul Bose became the hot topic.
The hotel was fined by ₹25000 by the Excise & Taxation Department of the state. Now the Federation of Hotel & Restaurant Associations of India (FHRAI) came in support of JW Marriott and claimed that what the hotel did was not at all “illegal”.
The Vice-President of FHRAI, Gurbaxish Singh Kohli said that 18% GST imposed 5on the Bose’s bill was “a legal requirement”.
Kohli said that hotel chains follow Standard Operating Procedures and unlike a retail store, a hotel offers service, quality, plate, cutlery, accompaniment, sanitized fruit, ambiance, and luxury along with the commodity. That is why a coffee which is available at ₹10 in roadside stalls, costs ₹250 in a luxury hotel.
He also justified the 18% GST and said that accommodation of ₹7,500 per day and above draws GST at the rate of CGST 9% and UT-GST 9%.
FHRAI Secretary Pradeep Shetty said that the hotel correctly charged the GST on the bill and it was legally payable by the customer.

An engineer from Mohali ordered an iPhone from online shopping website Snapdeal on March 4, 2017, but instead, he received five detergent cakes. Parveen Kumar Sharma called the company’s helpline and informed their representatives.
Two representatives later came and took away the parcel from Sharma for further investigation. They concluded that the courier boy is clean as the parcel was packed when it arrived. Allegedly, Sharma sent two more emails to Snapdeal but no action was taken and the company deleted his account.
That’s when went to the consumer court. In its reply, Snapdeal said to the forum that it is just an electronic platform which helps facilitate sales between the independent sellers and independent buyers. The company said that as the confirmation received from the seller and logistic service provider, the iPhone was delivered intact to the complainant at the given address.
Trying to turn the case around, Snapdeal accused Sharma of cooking up a fake story of receiving soap bars instead of iPhone. While Pious Fashion and Blue Dart Courier did not reply at all.
The forum finally concluded that though Snapdeal has nothing to do with the placement and dispatch of the order, the complainant’s order was delivered by the company’s courier services. It said that the company wants to get free of the liability by taking advantage of the Information Technology Act and clauses of Terms of Use.
The judgment also stated that IMEI number of mobile was also not mentioned on the packet or on the bill. So the consumer forum ordered Snapdeal, Pious Fashion and Blue Dart Courier, to repay Rs 81,799, along with an interest at 8% per annum from March 4, 2017, till date. They are also ordered to pay Rs 10,000 as compensation and Rs 10,000 as cost of litigation to the complainant.

Kevin Pietersen, former England captain, has described the text messages he sent to the opposite team as a mistake. He sent the messages seven years ago during a Test series but defended himself saying that it was a general banter between friends.
The incident is widely known as the Textgate incident, and it ultimately ended with Pietersen being dropped by England in 2014. In his documentary, titled ‘KP: Story of a Genius,’ Kevin can be seen talking to Nasser Hussain that what he did was a mistake. He sent the messages and apologized to former England captain Andrew Strauss.
Strauss in 2012 tournament had informed England’s cricketers to not speak to opponents. Kevin, however, found this notion ridiculous and continued talking to the South African team. Michael Vaughan, in the documentary, said that Kevin Pietersen had crossed a line. He said that if Kevin had sent the messages, he should not have played again if proven guilty.
