Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court allowed the appeal against the National Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission's order, which dismissed the revision petition concerning a complaint filed under Section 12 of the Consumer Protection Act, 1986. The Court held that the National Commission failed to consider the appellant's argument regarding the inapplicability of the Consumer Protection Act after the appellant had availed remedies from the appellant authority. The matter was remitted to the National Commission for reconsideration in light of the precedent set in Surinder Mohan v. Municipal Corporation.
