On April 14 2019 the chandigarh consumer forum had fined Bata India Rs 9000 for asking Consumer to pay Rs 3 for carry bag
Guest (Expert) 25 April 2019
Consumer Forum said compelling a customer to pay for paper/carry bag is a clear deficiency in service.

Yes I told the manager about this bata case. But he was not willing to listen. Even asked do what you want to do

You have a good case.
Guest (Expert) 25 April 2019
Proceed legally and file a case in concerned Consumer Forum mentioning all the details and citation of Bata Case and you would certainly get the refund with penalty please.

Is this online or should I go to advocate ..?

In your case the court fee would be Rs 200 and you could draft your own petition with the help of kind and polite court assistants of the court and advocates would charge reasonable fee for drafting the petition .

You could also down load the format of petition to be filed in consumer forum from Google
Guest (Expert) 25 April 2019
Filing in person would be advisable and the matter would complete fast please
Guest (Expert) 25 April 2019
By filing the Petition in Consumer Court and spending your valuable time more than claiming your refund and penalty you would be getting the Justice for all other consumers/ Customers and Public Please.

There is another side of the story: plastic carry bags, which are an environmental threat, are charged to discourage their use.
