Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the dismissal of the appellant's complaint by the National Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission, ruling that the matter involved complex evidence regarding damages and was not suitable for summary proceedings under the Consumer Protection Act. The Court emphasized that the appellant should pursue the claim in a Civil Court, as the Consumer Forum was misused for claims that required detailed evidence. The appeal was dismissed with costs awarded to the first respondent.
