Hon’ble Mr. Kamal De, Presiding Member
Order No. : 01
Date : 04.03.2020
Complainant is present through Ld. Lawyer.
The case is taken up for admission hearing.
Seen the petition of complaint and Xerox copies of the documents filed thereto.
It appears that the complainant No. 1 is a partnership farm and complainant No. 2 is one of the partners of the partnership farm.
It also appears that the subject matter of the dispute relates to cash credit account and term loan for the purpose of procurement of different machineries equipments purchased from the seller/dealers and the payment etc.
The relief claimed is for the rectification of the cash credit account and adjustment of the aggregate amount of interest charged and received under the cash credit account with the EMIs payment of term loan account, against the OP - Bank.
We find that relation between the complainant and the OP Bank is that of a debtor and creditor. Moreover, OP company is a commercial partnership farm and is not a consumer as understood and/or defined under Consumer Protection Act.
We are afraid the case is not maintainable in Consumer Protection Act.
Hence,
ORDERED
The case be and the same is dismissed being not maintainable in Consumer Protection Act.
