The Supreme Court upheld the NCDRC's order directing the respondent-company to deliver possession of the apartment to the appellants within three months, as per the Agreement to Sell dated 29.11.2013. The Court emphasized the importance of timely possession under consumer protection laws, particularly under the Consumer Protection Act, 2019. The appellants were entitled to a joint inspection and rectification of any deficiencies within specified timelines, reinforcing the legal principle that consumers must receive the benefits promised in agreements.
