Fashion e-tailer Myntra is changing its logo following a complaint by a Mumbai-based activist who alleged that the brand's signage was offensive towards women. When contacted, Myntra confirmed the development.
The logo is being changed across Myntra's website, app and packaging material. The complaint had been lodged last month with the cyber cell in Mumbai by Avesta Foundation's Naaz Patel.
