Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the decision of the District Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission, affirming that the appellant was not justified in charging an extra amount of Rs.9,232/- for the delivery of a Maruti car after the respondent had paid the full amount. The Court ruled that the appellant was estopped from raising the issue of jurisdiction after participating in the proceedings and that the respondent had fulfilled his contractual obligations. The appeal was dismissed, reinforcing the principles under the Consumer Protection Act, 1986.
