Today is fixed for admission hearing.
Heard the Ld.Lawyer of the complainant.
Perused the petition of complaint.
Order is passed accordingly.
Ld.Lawyer of the complainant submits that the complainant’s bill was not realized to the tune of Rs. 2,94,137/- (Rupees Two Lakh Ninety Four Thousand One Hundred Thirty Seven Only) for which he has come to this Forum now Commission.
Now the main point is to be considered whether the complainant is a ‘Consumer’ or not.
The petitioner was appointed as a vendor by the then Branch Manager of L & T Construction Ltd. to erect cable tower from tower to tower.
When the question of appointment is involved as such raising of bill or non-supplying the bill completely comes under a contract for which the proper remedy is lying with the Civil Court as such the petitioner is not a ‘Consumer’ under the definition of Consumer Protection Act, 1986.
So the instant petition is not maintainable in this Forum. Hence, the petition is not required to be admitted.
Hence, ordered that
the petition is not admitted and the same is rejected.
