Consumer Commissions Award Compensation for TV Warranty and Cable Service Issues
Two consumer commissions in India ruled in favor of complainants facing service deficiencies related to television products and services. In Punjab, a man was awarded nearly Rs 50,000 after Croma failed to honor an extended warranty for a defective TV. In Kerala, a subscriber received Rs 13,000 and service restoration after his cable connection was disconnected without notice, causing loss of access to TV programs. Both cases highlighted repeated complaints and inadequate responses from service providers.
