He awaited for six months but the plot number was not allotted. He visited the office of Premier Complexes several times but all in vain, added the complainant. Refuting the allegations levelled by the complainant the opposite party submitted that there was no deficiency on their part. The objection was taken that the complainant was not even a consumer. It was pleaded that the amount was deposited by the complainant against demand survey advertised by the opposite party. They
denied of making any promise of allotting the plot. But after appreciating the documents produced by the parties the forum observed that it was clearly mentioned that the amount was received by the opposite party as registration amount. The forum noted that the promise was made to allot the plot within 4-5 months. ''Admittedly, no plot has been allotted to the complainant so far. The opposite party got deposited the amount and did not make the allotment as promised. As such, there is clear deficiency in service . Therefore, to compensate the complainant for deficiency on the part of the opposite party, interest has to be allowed'', further observed the forum. |
