Consumer Protection

Complaints for defective goods, deficient services, builder delays and insurance claims.

Overview

Holding sellers and service providers to account.

When goods are defective or services fall short, the Consumer Protection Act, 2019 offers a practical and effective remedy. We represent consumers and businesses before the Consumer Disputes Redressal Commissions in matters ranging from product defects and insurance claim rejections to builder delays and banking deficiencies.

Common questions

Consumer Protection: FAQs

Is there a time limit to file a consumer complaint?

Yes. A complaint should ordinarily be filed within two years from the date on which the cause of action arose. The commission may condone delay if there is sufficient cause.

Which commission should I approach?

It depends on the value of the goods or services paid for. Under the current limits, District Commissions hear complaints up to ₹50 lakh, State Commissions from ₹50 lakh up to ₹2 crore, and the National Commission above ₹2 crore.

Do I need a lawyer for a consumer complaint?

Consumers can file complaints themselves, but legal assistance helps in framing the complaint, presenting evidence and answering the opposite party’s defence — especially in complex or high-value matters.
