Consumer Court Cases
Consumer Court Cases in India pertain to disputes between consumers and businesses (sellers, manufacturers, service providers) over issues like defective goods, deficient services, unfair trade practices, overpricing, and misleading advertisements. The Consumer Protection Act, 2019 governs consumer disputes and ensures consumers have the right to seek redress for grievances.
Advantages of Consumer Courts:
Affordable: Filing fees are minimal, making the process accessible to consumers from all economic backgrounds.
Speedy Justice: Consumer courts are intended to provide quick resolution compared to regular civil courts.
No Need for Lawyers: Consumers can represent themselves, though legal representation is allowed.
