The Supreme Court addressed an appeal against an order from the National Consumer Dispute Redressal Commission, which mandated ECGC Limited to pay Rs. 265.01 Crores with interest due to the rejection of an insurance claim related to a construction contract in Iraq. The court examined the applicability of the Consumer Protection Act, 1986, and the circumstances surrounding the insurance claim. Ultimately, the court upheld the decision of the National Commission, reinforcing the rights of consumers under the Act.
