Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that the National Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission erred in setting aside the order of the District Consumer Disputes Redressal Forum, which had found a prima facie case under Section 27 of the Consumer Protection Act, 1986 for taking action against the respondents. The Court restored the District Forum's order, emphasizing that the revisional authority was not justified in interfering with the findings of the District Forum. The appeal was allowed, and the order of the National Commission was set aside.
