Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the findings of the Monopolies And Restrictive Trade Practices Commission that the Rajasthan Housing Board engaged in restrictive trade practices under Section 2(o)(ii) and unfair trade practices under Section 36-A(1)(i) and (vi) of the MRTP Act, 1969. The Court emphasized that the Board's failure to deliver possession of the house within the promised timeframe constituted unfair trade practice, leading to the respondent's financial loss. The appeal was dismissed, affirming the Commission's order against the Board.
