Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the decision of the District Consumer Disputes Redressal Forum, which found that the tiles supplied by the respondents had manufacturing defects, constituting an unfair trade practice under the Consumer Protection Act. The Court confirmed the liability of the respondents to pay Rs. 2,00,000 with interest to the appellant, Lourdes Society Snehanjali Girls Hostel, for the defective goods. The appeal by the respondents was dismissed, affirming the lower court's findings and orders.
