ORDER
K.C.RATH, PRESIDENT
1. This is an application U/s 12 of the C.P.Act, 1986.
2. The complainant’s case in brief is that, he came to know about an advertisement of Reeta & Sons Jewelry i.e. OP and learnt that, there is discount of Rs.5000/- on the gold rate. On being tempted by such advertisement, he purchased gold ornaments weighing about 14.730 gms worth of Rs.50,800/-. The seller did not deduct Rs.5000/- from the total price paid by him as per the advertisement as alleged by the complainant. On being aggrieved, the complainant filed this case.
3. On the other hand, the OP did not appear in the case, as such it was set exparte and exparte hearing is taken up on 17/02/2023.
4 Perused the materials on record. It was advertised by the OP that, there was Rs.5000/- off on the gold rate i.e. gold rate on the date in question was Rs.33,500/- and the OP would sell the gold @ Rs.28,500/-. Admittedly, the complainant had purchased the gold ornaments weighing 14.730 gms and the seller had sold those gold ornaments to the complainant @ Rs.28,500/- i.e. in accordance with the advertisement published by the OP. There was no scope of cheating or unfair trade practice or deficiency in service on the part of the OP. In this backdrop, the complaint bears no merit. Hence it is ordered.
ORDER
The complaint is dismissed exparte against the OP being devoid of merit.
The order is pronounced on this day the 9th March, 2023 under the seal & signature of the President and Member (W) of this Commission.
