What you should pay at a shop, the printed MRP, and what GenuineRate customers actually paid.
Price list source: Polycab Optima+ 1.5 sq mm: ₹3,700-3,900 vs MRP ₹5,900; Green Wire+ 16-coil pack works out to ~₹3,490/coil (Apr 2026)
MRP is the maximum a seller may charge, not the usual price. Branded electricals like wires and MCBs commonly sell 25-45% below MRP; paint and sanitaryware 5-20% below. If a contractor bills close to MRP, ask for the dealer price.
