F I N A LO R D E R
This is an application U/s 12 of the Consumer Protection Act,1986 filed by the Petitioner, Smt. Gopa Koley against the O.Ps., 1 & 2. , praying a direction upon the O.Ps. to return the unfinished goods or returning Rs. 50,000/- of the entire sum of Rs. 60,000/- and Rs. 5,000/- as compensation.
The case of the petitioner is that her husband , Samaresh Koley during his life time gave order to the O.P.s to prepare some mechanical goods as per his drawing and gave Rs. 60,000/- to the O.P.s on 09.02.2013. After his demise the petitioner while looking after his business came to know about the drawing on 22.09.2014. O.P. gave undertaking to return the money as unable to prepare goods and gave Rs. 10,000/- by cheque dated 22.09.2014 . The O.P.s did not return the rest 50,000/- neither gave delivery of the goods and the same compelled her to file the case.
Though the notice served upon O.P.s but neither the O.P.s appeared in the case nor deposited any written version and thus the case is heard exparte against them.
