In my finance classes, we learn this is the ultimatum game; rejecting unfair splits is about punishing perceived injustice, not the money. A wealthy person might refuse ₹200 because that ₹800 difference insults their status. At our family dinners, I've seen my father reject a lucrative deal on principle, saying the disrespect from the other party was more costly. To us, ₹200 isn't a gain, it's a symbol of being undervalued.
