Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that the National Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission erred in foreclosing the appellant's argument regarding liability to pay compensation, as the issue was still open for consideration. The Court set aside the Commission's order concerning the admission of the revision petition solely on the points of easy monthly instalments and rate of interest, and remitted the matter back to the Commission for a comprehensive hearing along with other pending revisions. The Court clarified that it did not address the merits of the case, allowing parties to present all arguments before the Commission.
