In an order issued recently, the CCPA directed Xboom (www.xboom.in) to stop listing, hosting, advertising, promoting or offering these products for sale unless accompanied by proper regulatory approvals and statutory disclosures. The company has been given 15 days from the date of the order to submit a compliance report.
