Amazon India does this as well from my observation (one way is to look for 1 star reviews complaining about the fact) and I'm not even sure it is legal to do so given price-control via MRPs, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maximum_retail_price

They (or sellers?) go to the extent of blacking-out MRPs from product images [0], though it might be that they might not want to keep updating the images for every price change (changes don't happen often, if ever).

I caught them once and was offered ~$3 refund on an item with MRP of ~$6 which was sold at ~$9.
