The complainant received the product in his residential address at Patnagarh. Being dissatisfied with the said mobile phone the complainant wants to replace the same and requested the O.P. for replacement which was accepted by the O.P. Accordingly the complainant send the same by post in the post office of O.P.No.3 .

As soon as the item will reach the ware house we will initiate the refund in your original payment mode which you used for placing the order.” This shows that the O.P.2 has not received the returned package. It is seen from the postal receipt issued by the O.P.3 that the returned item is not in the name of either O.P.1 or 2. There is no evidence available on record to show that the complainant has sent the mobile phone either to the O.p.1 or O.P. 2 and the same was received by them.
