Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court addressed the jurisdiction of Consumer Forums under the Consumer Protection Act, 1986, specifically regarding disputes between chit funds and their prized subscribers. The Court held that the National Commission correctly dismissed the revision petition, affirming that the Consumer Forums do not have jurisdiction over disputes involving chit funds and their subscribers, as established in the case of Dwarkadish Chits Pvt. Ltd. v. Sanju Ram Aggarwal. The appeal was dismissed, upholding the State Commission's decision that the complainant was not entitled to relief under the Act.
