NCDRC Orders Refund in Wedding Cancellation Case, Denies Fantasy Cricket Payout Claim
The National Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission (NCDRC) ruled in two separate cases involving consumer claims. In one, a man was awarded a Rs 3 lakh refund from a hotel after his daughter's wedding was cancelled, with the hotel allowed to retain Rs 2.31 lakh for losses. In another, the NCDRC dismissed a Rs 2 lakh payout claim by a fantasy cricket contest winner who missed a World Cup final due to visa issues, ruling visa responsibility lies with the winner, not the platform.
