ORDER
SMT.P.RAMADEVI : MEMBER
Mr.Sreenivasan filed this complaint alleging deficiency in service against the opposite party, the proprietor Excellent Electronics.
The complainant given to his TV Heir for repair to opposite party in the month of August 2011 and he paid 1040/-. After its repair the complainant used the TV only two days and the complaint again occurred. The complainant informed the fact to him and the opposite party ‘man had taken the circuit board for repair. But the opposite party failed to repair the television irrespective of several request. So the complainant have missed programmes in the television. So far the opposite party did not repair the TV. Hence this complaint is filed for necessary reliefs.
2. On receipt of notice from this Forum opposite party appeared before the Forum and orally agrees to repair the TV replacing its IC. Hence the case is posted to adalath for settlement. But the opposite party was absent in the adalath and after that he has not turned up and has not filed his version. Hence the case is proceeded only with the complainant.
3. The complainant had filed Affidavit and Exts.A1 to A3 documents marked. Ext.A1 is the receipt issued by the opposite party . Ext.A2 is the copy of the lawyer notice asking the complaint to repair the TV and Ext.A3 is the unserved lawyer notice. Heard the counsel for the complainant.
4. The issues raised in this case for consideration are
1. Whether any deficiency in service on the part of opposite party?
2. If so what is the relief? HerehhhhhhhHHhhHHHhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhHHHhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh hhhh sssssssssssssssxx
5. Here the opposite party admitted before the Forum that the circuit Board is with him and he agreed to repair the TV . But he did not do so. Here the opposite party first of all refused the lawyer notice Ext.A3 sent by the complainant. 2ndly he submitted before the Forum that he agreed to repair the TV. Even then the opposite party didn’t do so. That itself shows the negligent attitude of the opposite party. Moreover he has taken the circuit board for repair in the month of August 2011 but so far the opposite party has not repaired the TV set. Hence we are of the opinion that there is deficiency in service on the part of the opposite party and thereby caused mental agony to the complainant.
Therefore the complaint is allowed and the opposite party is directed to repair the TV set of the complainant in to working condition failing which the opposite party is directed to pay `5000/- being the price of the old TV set. The opposite party is also directed to pay a cost of `2000/- to the complainant. Time for compliance is limited to 30 days from the date of receipt of copy of the order.
Exts:
A1- receipt issued by the opposite party .
A2- copy of the lawyer notice
A3- unserved lawyer notice
