Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court considered appeals under Section 67 of the Consumer Protection Act, 2019 concerning delay in possession of flats by a developer under a Joint Development Agreement. The developer had agreed to hand over possession within 36 months, which was not met, leading to allegations of deficiency in service and unfair trade practices. The Court analyzed the contractual obligations, the timeline of events, and the relief granted by the National Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission. The judgment upheld the consumer forum's findings and emphasized the developer's liability for delay and compensation to the buyers.
