How to escalate a complaint with Sony
If the first response isn’t good enough, here’s the path to a resolution.
Sony India offers customer support through a dedicated hotline, email, and live chat. For unresolved issues, escalate to the grievance officer or use India's consumer protection mechanisms.

Escalate to Sony India Grievance/Nodal Officer

Mention your previous complaint reference number and the lack of resolution to expedite the process.
External Escalation via Consumer Protection Routes
If Sony India does not resolve your complaint, approach India's consumer grievance platforms or regulatory bodies.
National Consumer Helpline
1915
Toll-free helpline for consumer complaints in India.
You can file a complaint online at consumerhelpline.gov.in or call 1915.
If the product is covered under warranty and the issue is not resolved, you may approach the Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission (District/State/National) under the Consumer Protection Act, 2019.
For electronics, you may also contact the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) if the issue relates to product quality/safety standards.
Keep all documentation: invoices, warranty cards, complaint reference numbers, and communication records.
Tips for a stronger escalation
Always document every interaction: date, time, representative name, and complaint reference number.
Be polite but firm; clearly state your desired resolution (repair, replacement, refund).
If the first point of contact is unhelpful, ask to speak to a supervisor or request escalation to the grievance officer.
Use social media (Twitter/Facebook) to tag Sony India – many companies respond faster to public complaints.
Check if your product is under warranty and know your consumer rights under the Consumer Protection Act, 2019.
If you decide to approach the consumer commission, consider sending a legal notice to Sony India before filing the complaint.
Stop chasing emails
Log the complaint once in the Simply C2 app and keep every escalation step, date and reply in one place.
