ORDER BY HON’BLE PRESIDENT- MR. P.K. PADHI:
JUDGMENT
Complainant, the owner of the multiple vehicles has filed the present consumer complaint and C.C. No.47/2023 before this Commission. The counsel for the complainant submitted that owner of 2(two) vehicle is a consumer as defined U/s.2 (7) of Consumer Protection Act, 2019. On the other hand the counsel for opposite parties relied on the decision of the Hon’ble National Commission in the case of Sri Jasobant Nrayan Ram Vrs. The B.M., L&T Finance, wherein Hon’ble National Commission appellant (consumer) has not been able to show as to how purchase of 2(two) trucks does not fall within the meaning of commercial transaction. Even in that case the plea of the complainant was that another truck was lying ideal, which was not accepted by Hon’ble National Commission, but in the present case, the complainant has filed 2(two) cases for 2(two) vehicle as such we find no merit in the consumer complaint and complainant being owner of the multiple vehicles is not a consumer as such the consumer complaint is dismissed. No cost.
Pronounced in the open Commission on this 16th May,2024.
