working properly. The complainant visited the shop of opposite party No.1 and told about the defect of the mobile. Thereafter, the opposite party No.1 advised the complainant to contact the opposite party No.2 for removing the defect of the mobile set who is the service provider. The complainant visited the opposite party No.2 for removing the defect of mobile set. The opposite party No.2 removed the defect of the mobile set and returned the same to the complainant on 20.5.2015. Again the mobile was giving the problem and he visited the opposite party No.2 for removing the defect of mobile set but the defect was not removed by the opposite party No.2. Deficiency in service on the part of the opposite parties is alleged. It is prayed that the complaint be accepted and opposite parties be directed to replace the mobile set as well as to pay a sum of Rs.50,000/- as compensation on account of mental pain and agony to the complainant.
2. Upon notice, the opposite parties have appeared, the opposite party No.2 has stated that the mobile of the complainant was checked and found the crack near power key and hand set is in dead condition. The mobile set is out of warranty and mobile set is physically damaged. After the purchase of mobile set, the complainant used it almost six months and it proves that there was no manufacturing defect in the mobile set. All the other allegations have been denied by the answering opposite party. Therefore, there is no deficiency in service on the part of the answering opposite party. Dismissal of complaint with costs is prayed for.

3. Opposite parties No.1 and 3 have contended that the device was internally damaged (as per warranty policy, if the device is internally damaged then customer needs to pay the repair charges) and complainant agreed to send the device for repair. The device is not in warranty due to liquid logged in the device. The defect occurred only due to wrong handling the mobile set by the complainant. Therefore, there is no deficiency in service on the part of the answering opposite parties. Dismissal of complaint is prayed for.
4. In evidence, the complainant has produced his own affidavit Ex. C-1, copy of cash memo Ex. C-2, copy of job sheet Ex. C-3 and copy of Aadharr card Ex. C-4 and closed the evidence. Ld. Counsel for opposite party No.1 has stated on 17.12.2015 that he does not want to lead any evidence in this case.
5. Today the case is fixed for arguments but none has appeared on behalf of complainant as well as opposite party No.1. We deciding this case on merit instead of dismissed for want of prosecution.
6. We have gone through the job sheet Ex. C-3 which clearly shows that the warranty of the device will get void, in case it is liquid logged, physical damaged or having unauthorized repair then the mobile phone is out of warranty. The complainant has used the mobile for 6 months without any fault. From the perusal of the record the complainant has also failed to produce any document or expert report of any Engineer in evidence that the mobile is having manufacturing defect. The complainant has not proved his case that the mobile is having any manufacturing defect. We are of the firm view that it is the

duty of the complainant to prove his case. In the present complaint the complainant failed to prove that whether the mobile set in question is water lodged or not. Deficiency in service on the part of the opposite parties is not proved. Hence, the complaint of the complainant is hereby dismissed. Parties will bear their own expenses. Copies of order be supplied to the parties under the rule. File be consigned to the record-room.
