Consumer Law
India has a simple and specific route for the Redressal of consumer disputes which is laid down under the Consumer Protection Act, 1986. This legislation provides a platform for protecting consumers against exploitation, for the hearing of complaints, and for settlement/compensation of dispute. The Act also stipulates the responsibilities of goods and services providers. To speed up the redressal process, the Act envisages the creation of quasi-judicial bodies at the district, state as well as national levels.
The complaints can be filed before, as per Pecuniary Jurisdiction of the subject matter, defined under Consumer Protection Rules 1986, in the following Forums/Commissions.
- District Consumer Dispute Redressal Forum.
- State Consumer Dispute Redressal Commission;
- National Consumer Dispute Redressal Commission, New Delhi
