Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the Monopolies and Restrictive Trade Practices Commission's order directing M/s DLF Universal Limited and DLF Qutab Enclave Complex Educational Charitable Trust to execute a fresh lease deed in favor of Raj Kamal, incorporating specific amendments. The Court found that the appellants engaged in unfair trade practices under Section 2(o)(i) and Section 36A of the Monopolies and Restrictive Trade Practices Act, 1969, by failing to deliver possession of the allotted plot. The judgment reinforces the obligation of developers to adhere to their commitments in lease agreements and ensures consumer protection against restrictive trade practices.
