JLR annual report says Tata motors acquisition price is $2,300 billion

Hi Friends,

JLR ( Jaguar Landrover ) FY11 annual report said that Tata motors acquired JLR for $2,300 billion. ( Annual report can be downloaded from Tata motors website, page 30, para 3rd)

The correct acquistion price is $2.3bn. You are guessing it right that this is a typographical error, so what is the big deal about it.

We are with you. Indeed it is not a big deal, it is a Weird Deal.

Big Bazaar selling 5 STAR chocolate 50% above its MRP

Product : Cadbury's 5 Star Fruit & NUT
Seller : Big Bazaar, Growel Mall, Kandivali East, Mumbai

Packaging : Pack of 3*42g each
Item Code: 300588638
Date of Visit: Nov13, 2011

Hello friends,

Every die-hard chocolate lover like me knows the selling price of his preferred chocolate by heart. A normal 5 STAR Fruit&Nut costs Rs20/unit.

Big Bazaar at Growel's Mall, Kandivali E, Mumbai is selling a pack of three at Rs90 ( 3*42gm) instead of Rs60. This is 50% above the MRP.

Astonished !

We have some proof pics attached with this post and there are ample stocks in the store for anyone to verify.

Cadbury, are you listening !

OK .. OK we understand that it can be a error of a purchase operator. But we thought your processes were well defined.

Whatever is the case, we will not pay a higher price than MRP and poor souls who bought the product and consumed without bothering for Rs30 more should not come across this post.

Buyers better beware next time you buy a cadbury atleast from food bazaar, do double check billing price and MRP.

But thanks for reading this and check out a lot more fun filled pages in the additional posts !
