Perhaps. It is reasonable policy in the context. It is similar on other side also. Customers can't return stuff back in retail stores to get cash back in India.

Funny story: A couple of years back a relative of mine visited US on office trip. Staying in a mid-level hotel they were surprised to know that they can just walk-in hotel's breakfast buffet, eat as much they want and even carry fruits, baked item etc while leaving. Back in India, hotel would do 2 level of ID/ security check before being ushered to buffet area and carrying any food item outside is prohibited.
So customer and service provider both have high chance to be defrauded by party at other end of transaction.

Never run into the ID/security check in my years of traveling here. At best, it is a "which room are you from" to mark off in their list. Carrying food out - that depends on the place.

Many have not run into restaurant fraud where they ask unsuspecting customers into ordering off-menu items like mixed-kebab platter or some such and then check comes in for 2000 rupees for that item but I have been duped like that. Same with hotel ID check maybe they do in high fraud regions where a group of people walk in confidently, looked the part, polished off meal and left quietly.
