The Supreme Court has set aside a consumer forum verdict directing former promoters Star India and Bharti Airtel to pay punitive damages of Rs 1 crore for their alleged "unfair trade practice" in a contest telecast during season 3 of popular TV show 'Kaun Banega Crorepati. The apex court said that finding of the commission in 2008 of "an unfair trade practice" was "bad in law" and overturned the decision.
