According to this story from India PRWire, the Delhi States Consumer Disputes Redression Commission has issued an opinion setting aside a punitive damages award of 100,000 rupees in a case in which the plaintiff claimed he became ill after drinking a bottle of Pepsi that had a condom in it. The Commission affirmed the compensatory damages award of 23,000 rupees.
If I understand the exchange rate correctly, 100,000 rupees is equal to about $2,000.
Perhaps the plaintiff would have been better off if he found a mouse in his bottle of Elsinore beer.
