India is the country of myths, traditions and rituals. Bad eye or evil eye is very common in various cultures around the world & so as in India too.
Description: - You have opened a Pandora’s Box! 7 chilies & lemon is to ward-off evil spirits or jealous glances from your article of possession. The lemon and chilies you saw on stores were tied to all modes of commercial transport like bus/truck etc. Lemon and chilies have "caustic"/"bitter" taste and that is how you would like to treat evil spirits with. The concept behind this is, if you have a very attractive possession like a newly built house, people will ogle at it jealously and make it lose its novelty/value. So, instead you yourself demean it non-destructively by hanging lemon & chilies, showing an evil face or horse shoe nailed to front door or putting a black spot on face of a cute baby.
