Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the National Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission's order rejecting the complaint on the grounds of limitation, as per Section 24-A(2) of the Consumer Protection Act, 1986. The Court found that the National Commission had adequately considered the application for condonation of delay but determined that there was no sufficient cause for the 12-year delay in filing the complaint. The appeal was dismissed, affirming the Commission's decision without interference.
