This research is aimed at the influence of discounts on an ill-informed customer and his unfounded choices. This leads to marketers increasing the marked price to an imaginary high and then slashing the prices to induce customer purchase; 78% of the products surveyed in the malls across two cities in India had practiced this dubious and unsustainable pricing method.
