TATA MOTORS LTD. vs ANTONIO PAULO VAZ

The Supreme Court upheld the decision of the National Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission, affirming the liability of Tata Motors Ltd. for selling a used car instead of a new one. The court found that the dealer's failure to provide the correct vehicle constituted a deficiency in service, making both the dealer and the manufacturer jointly liable. The outcome reinforced consumer rights against misleading practices in the sale of goods.
