Heard the learned counsel for the parties.
It is fairly conceded by the learned counsel for the revision petitioner that the impugned order does not suffer from any illegality of the nature provided u/s 17 of the Consumer Protection Act, 1986 to invoke revisional jurisdiction of this Commission. However, it is submitted that due to financial stringency the complainant/revision petitioner may be granted two months time to pay the arrear amount.
It is further submitted that the complainant/petitioner is paying the current EMI regularly.
According to learned counsel for the OPs the arrear EMIs against the revision petitioner is Rs.1,39,648/-.
Since it is not disputed that the complainant is paying the current EMIs revision petition is disposed of directing the complainant to pay the entire arrear EMI by the end of October, 2019. Till then the OPs financer shall not take any step for repossession of the vehicle. It is made clear that in case of default the OPs financer may take steps in accordance with law for repossession of the vehicle.
