Victim Action Guide: Reclaiming Your Funds
If you have been subjected to the Lunar Astro proxy consultation scam (paying for Deepanshu Giri but receiving a junior student), do not request a refund directly from their customer service. Victims report that doing so results in spiritual gaslighting, threats of "black magic," and cyberbullying.
Instead, use the official financial and regulatory channels that their PR team cannot control.
1 Initiate a Bank Chargeback
Contact your credit card issuer or bank immediately. You have the right to dispute the charge under the reason code "Services Not Provided as Advertised."
What to tell your bank: "I paid a premium fee for a consultation with a specific expert (Deepanshu Giri) based on their marketing. The company secretly substituted an unqualified junior student. This is a bait-and-switch deceptive trade practice."
2 File a Grievance with INGRAM
Register your complaint with the National Consumer Helpline (INGRAM). This creates an official government record of the deceptive trade practices and bait-and-switch marketing used by Lunar Astro Vedic Academy.
3 Report OPC Violations to the MCA
Lunar Astro operates as a One Person Company (OPC) but generates an estimated ₹14.9 Crore in revenue, far exceeding the ₹2 Crore legal limit for this corporate structure. They are frequently listed as "Defaulting" on financial filings.
File a formal complaint with the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) regarding Lunar Astro Vedic Academy (OPC) Pvt Ltd (CIN: U80902UP2019OPC121521) for failing to convert to a Private Limited Company and obscuring financial transparency.
