Most establishments add service charge directly to the bill in lieu of tips, providing customers with no recourse but to pay it irrespective of whether they enjoyed the service or not. On the other hand, many patrons often misinterpret the service charge for "service tax" that the government imposes and tip their server nevertheless. 。
Staff across restaurants and pubs have often complained that the service charge never reached them and are often pocketed by the owners.。

In an advisory issued Monday, the Department of Consumer Affairs added that applying a service fee by default violates fair trade practices. 。
Indians have long expressed their disapproval of restaurants charging them with a service fee in addition to a variety of taxes and cess the government imposes. With little awareness about the law, many didn’t know that the service fee was optional. 。
The department has asked state governments to ensure that no company, hotel, or restaurant disregard the Consumer Protection Act, 1986. 。
