Consumer Commissions Award Compensation in Two Electronics Retail Disputes
Two consumer commission rulings addressed complaints against electronics retailers. In Hyderabad, a man was awarded Rs 1.15 lakh after EMIs were deducted for a phone he never received, with the retailer ordered to close the loan account. In Una, a woman received Rs 59,000, including compensation and litigation costs, after a second-hand phone stopped working within days and the shop failed to refund or repair it. Both cases highlight consumer protection enforcement against deficient service and unfair trade practices.
