Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that the State Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission and the National Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission failed to consider the evidence presented by the appellant, which had been evaluated by the District Forum. The Court emphasized the necessity for a fair hearing and proper consideration of all documents in consumer disputes. Consequently, the appeal was allowed, and the orders of the State and National Commissions were set aside, remitting the matter back to the State Commission for reconsideration.
