Someone's hijacked my own product listing and is undercutting my price, what do I do?
A hijacker piggybacking on your own listing (same ASIN/SKU, lower price, possibly counterfeit or grey-market stock) is one of the most common D2C complaints on both Amazon and Flipkart, the fix is filing a report through Brand Registry/Project Zero on Amazon or Brand Assure on Flipkart with proof you're the legitimate manufacturer, which usually gets the unauthorised seller removed from that listing within days. Prevention matters more than reaction here: enrolling in Brand Registry, using your own manufacturer barcodes, and avoiding inventory-commingling programs closes off a lot of the openings hijackers exploit in the first place.
