Final Order / Judgement

Content of the complaint petition is that this complainant invested Rs. 1,09,700/- to the Ops Saharayn Universal Multipurpose Society Limited Company on 31.01.2018 under receipt no 517000975416, 517000975408, 517000975404, 517000975414, 517000975415, 517000975417, 517000975418, 517000975419  . But on expiry of such period this Ops did not pay any single amount to the Complainant, though she repeatedly went to their office and deposited all documents of investments. Hence it is an unfair trade practice on behalf of the Saharayn Company and also a deficiency service at their part. Hence she approached before this commission for an amount of Rs. 1,99,700/-and Rs 1,00,000/- for compensation for her mental agony and harassment and 50,000/- for litigation cost.

          OP contested the case on submission that they are willing to pay but due to embargo by the apex court unable to pay. Apart from that complainant did not produce KYC documents and original certificate of investment. Moreover this complainant is not consumer. The relation in between them as debtor and creditor and the transaction between them is as commercial or financial transaction. So the remedy is “The Civil Court” not this Commission. Due to the dispute with company and SEBI, this delay in payment arises. Finally due to the embargo in apex court, the company cannot dispose their asset and could not pay the investors. They have no fault at all.

DECISION

          In order to substantiate the Complaint complainant examined herself and filed the Xerox copy of document i.e certificates of investment.   

This commission carefully perused the untested testimony of the complainant and unchallenged document.

          Considering all of these documentary and oral evidence, this commission is directing the OP except OP 4 company except OP 4 jointly and severally to disburse the Principal amount of Rs 1,09,700/- behind her investment and Rs 5,000/- for compensation for her mental agony and harassment and Rs 2,000/- for litigation cost.

HENCE ORDERED

That the complaint petition be and same is allowed with a direction to pay the complainant principal amount of Rs 1,09,700/- in respect of her investment and also compensation of Rs 5,000/- for her mental agony and harassment and Rs 2000/- as litigation cost jointly and severally except OP 4 within forty five (45) days from the date of this order.       

Let a copy of this judgment be given to the Complainant/ O.Ps free of cost on proper application.
