Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the decision of the National Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission (NCDRC) under Section 67 of the Consumer Protection Act, 2019, which directed the appellant to refund Rs.7,16,41,493/- to the respondent along with interest due to deficiency in service and unfair trade practices. The Court clarified that the respondent, despite being a real estate company, was a consumer under Section 2(7) of the Act as the flat was purchased for residential use. The Court affirmed the NCDRC's order for refund and compensation, emphasizing consumer rights in real estate transactions.
