MR. BIBEKANANDA DAS, MEMBER :-

         Complainant owner of multiple of vehicles and co-borrower in multiple loans/vehicles and defaulter of loan cannot be termed as a consumer as defined U/s-2(7) of C.P.Act, 2019. Relationship between complainant & Ops is that of Debtor and creditor and there is no element of deficiency in service. As such Complainant has not come in clean hand and cannot be termed as a consumer.

       Counsel for Complainant submitted that he has filed the writ petition against the order of Learned Arbitrator, which has no connection with the C.C. Hence we heard the C.C. on merit.

      Counsel for Complainant submitted that he wants to settle the loan in OTS. Taking a lenient view we direct the Ops to consider the OTS application sympathetically in accordance with Rules. Accordingly the C.C.Case No. 83/2023 is hereby dismissed. No order as to Cost.

                         Issue extract of the order to the parties concerned.   

           Pronounced in the open Commission, on this the 30^th  day of July,2024.            

                                  I, agree
