The risk of counterfeit goods is a significant obstacle to market expansion. Particularly in price-sensitive nations like India, counterfeit goods are frequently marketed at cheaper prices than branded goods through unofficial distributors and online retail channels. They typically share the same packaging and features as well-known brands. Thus, the availability of fake goods has increased due to the increase in the sales of domestic goods through independent online retail channels like Amazon. Furthermore, since consumers cannot tell the difference between genuine and counterfeit goods, the availability of counterfeit goods dilutes the value of original brands. If the duplicate products they buy malfunction, consumers who don't know how to authenticate products blame the actual companies, which hurt the reputation of genuine, reliable firms.
