Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that the National Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission (NCDRC) must provide reasons for dismissing a revision petition, as mandated by Section 21 of the Consumer Protection Act, 1986. The Court emphasized that the NCDRC, being a high-powered adjudicating forum under Section 20, cannot affirm a State Commission's order without adequate justification. The dismissal of the builder's revision petition was deemed improper due to the lack of reasoning, thus reinforcing the necessity for transparency in judicial decisions.
