1. The appeal is directed against the order dated 7.8.2014 bearing No. 565/2013, titled as S.C. Sharma Vs. Kharati Lal Sons pending before District Forum-VI, M Block, Vikas Bhawan, IP Estate, New Delhi, vide which the complaint was dismissed.
2. In the present appeal before this Commission, Complainant/Appellant has prayed for setting aside the impugned orders.
4. We have heard Shri Karunesh Tandon, Counsel for the Appellant in this appeal at the admission stage itself.
5. Perusal of the order dated 17th July, 2013 passed by the District Forum shows that the orders have been passed by the single member. The orders are hence not tenable in the eyes of law.
6. The District Forum has dismissed the complaint on the conjecture observing that fading of colour of the frame of mirrors was a frivolous complaint. Counsel for the appellant stated that the said discolouring took place within one week of the purchase. The cost of three mirrors was Rs.30,000/-. Matter required adjudication. It is hence remanded back to District Consumer Disputes Redressal Forum-VI, M Block, Vikas Bhawan, IP Estate, New Delhi with a direction to restore the complaint to its original number and to proceed in the matter on merits. The Appellant Complainant is directed to appear before the District Consumer Disputes Redressal Forum-VI, M Block, Vikas Bhawan, IP Estate, New Delhi on 18.07.2014.
