By Smt. Saji Mathew, Member:-
The gist of of the complaint is as follows:- The Complainant purchased an impex induction cooker, Omega H2 on 19.1.2010 from the sales representative of the agency called Lakshmni agencies. The price of the cooker is Rs.5,600/- which was paid by the Complainant on the same day itself. The cooker is having a warranty of 12 months. But the cooker became defective within 15 days of purchase. There was no address of the agencies in the bill. The Complainant tried to contact the phone numbers given by the sales representative and contacted the customer care centre. They promised to repair the cooker, but have not done so. Hence the Complainant prays for an order directing customer care centre to repair or replace the induction cooker and to pay Rs.2,000/- as compensation and Rs.1,000/- towards mental agony. 2. The Opposite Party was set exparte.
3. Complainant filed proof affidavit, documents were marked as Ext.A1 to A3 on the side of the Complainant.
4. The matters to be decided are:- Whether there is any deficiency in service on the side of the Opposite Party? Whether the Complainant is entitled for any relief?
5. Point No.1:- Proof affidavit filed by the Complainant admit that the induction cooker is repaired by the Opposite Party. It is repaired only after filing of this complaint. So, there is deficiency in service on the side of the Opposite Party.
6. Point No.2:- The Complainant is entitled to get the cost of the case

The Opposite Party is directed to pay interest on the ordered amount at the rate of 10% per annum from the date of complaint till payment.
