The instant case was filed by complainants   U/S 12 of the  C.P.  Act, 1986,

as amended against the O.Ps.  alleging deficiency in service U/S 2( 1 )( g ),  2( 1 )( o ) of the C.P. Act, 1986 wherein the complainants have prayed for direction upon the O.P. Syed Murshed Ali to pay the maturity value of the daily deposit scheme run by the o.p. company amounting to Rs. 24,136/- and to pay compensation to the tune of Rs. 10,000/- together with litigation costs of Rs. 1,000/- as the o.ps. suddenly stopped collection and in spite of repeated requests the o.p. company did not return the amount to the account holders namely the complainants. 

 

The o.p. company in filing written version denied all the material

allegations and challenged the complaint as it is hopelessly barred by limitation.

 

Upon pleadings of both parties two points arose for determination :

 

i)          Is there any deficiency in service on the part of the O.Ps.  ?

Whether the complainants are  entitled to get any relief as prayed for ? 

 

DECISION  WITH   REASONS      :

 

 

4.                            Both the points are  taken up together for consideration.             On scrutiny of the records it appears that Maya Shee  deposited Rs. 7,000/-, Gopal Shee Rs. 5,000/- in the fixed deposit scheme of the o.p. company. As the o.p. in spite of filing written version did not appear for placing his argument, the documents placed on behalf of the complainant go unchallenged. In view of unchallenged testimony we arrive at the conclusion that the o.ps. in spite of receiving the fixed deposit scheme did not pay up the maturity value to the complainants. The complainants being the consumers in terms of Section 2(1)(d) and there occurred gross deficiency in service U/S 2(1)(g) of the Act the o.ps. have no other alternative than to escape the rigours of law. Both the points are accordingly disposed of.

 

                Hence,

O     R     D      E      R      E        D

 

                               

                That the C. C. Case No. 77 of 2012 ( HDF 77 of 2012 )  be and the same is  allowed on contest as   against  the O.P. no. 1 and ex parte against o.p. no. 2 with costs.    

                The O.Ps. be directed to pay Rs. 24,136/- to the complainants  together with the interest @ 12% per annum since the date of deposit  within one month from the date of this order.

                The o.ps. be further directed to pay compensation of Rs. 5,000/- to the complainants together with litigation costs of Rs. 1,000/- within one month from the date of this order.      

                The complainant is at liberty to put the decree into execution after expiry of the appeal period.               

                Supply the copies of the order to the parties, as per rule.
