Dear Member,

This is in continuation to our circular dated 20th July 2022 regarding the stay order by the Hon’ble High Court of Delhi on the writ petition filed by FHRAI against the arbitrary and discriminatory provisions in the CCPA Guidelines dated 04.07.2022.

A copy of the order of the Delhi High Court is enclosed for your perusal.

Our members are hereby requested to comply with the following directions of the Hon’ble High Court in its order:

1.   The members of the petitioner Association shall ensure that the proposed levy of a service charge in addition to the price and taxes payable and the obligation of customers to pay the same is duly and prominently displayed on the menu or other places where it may deemed to be expedient.

2.  The members of the petitioner Association further undertake not to levy or include service charge on any “take away” items.

The matter is listed for further hearing on 25.11.2022.

With best regards, 

Jaison Chacko
