Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court addressed the appeal against the NCDRC's order which removed Three C Universal Developers Private Limited from the array of parties in a consumer complaint. The Court held that the consumers had a valid claim against both parties as they were marketed as a single entity, thus establishing that the consumers could seek redress against the main promoter of the project under the Consumer Protection Act. The Court reinstated the second respondent in the proceedings, emphasizing the joint liability of the parties involved in the real estate project.
