Despite issuance of notice to petitioner, no one responds even on second call. Even on merit, petitioner has no good case for success. Factual backgrounds are that wheel alignment machine was purchased by petitioner from respondent-company on 03.05.2006. Subsequently, when machine showed problems and matter was reported to respondent-dealer, respondent charged Rs.2,500/- from petitioner on Engineer’s visit. Grievance of petitioner was also that even though hard disc purchased from respondent on 05.06.2008 went out of order. Aggrieved with realization of Rs.2,500/- by respondent for Engineer’s visit to bring the machine in order, a complaint was filed before District Forum by petitioner and District Forum having considered pleadings of parties dismissed complaint. Appeal too filed by petitioner did not find favour with State Commission, which noticed that respondent was under no liability to maintain equipment after lapse of warranty period. However, State Commission directed respondent to put machine in order without realization of repair cost and that in future repair shall be on the basis of charges from dealer. Cost imposed by District Forum was also set aside by State Commission. Now, petitioner has come up in revision petition for award of compensation, stating, inter alia that he has suffered a loss of Rs.6,000/- as a result of failure of respondent to give proper service and, therefore, he deserves to be adequately compensated. Having considered finding of State Commission, I am of view that no good case is made out in revision petition for award of compensation. Revision petition is accordingly dismissed.
