The correct answer is option 2- A, B, C and D only.
A) To remove the defect in goods or deficiency in service. B) To pay a reasonable amount of compensation for any loss or injury suffered by the consumer due to the negligence of the opposite party. C) To pay punitive damages in appropriate circumstances. D) To discontinue the unfair/ restrictive trade practice and not to repeat it in the future. All of the above reliefs are available to consumers.
Where District or State or National Commission is satisfied about defect in goods, or deficiency in services on any unfair trade practice or claim for compensation under product liability, issues an order:
(i) To replace the defective product with a new one, free from any defect. (ii) To refund the price paid for the product, or the charges paid for the service. (iii) To remove the defect in goods or deficiency in service. (iv) To pay a reasonable amount of compensation for any loss or injury suffered by the consumer due to the negligence of the opposite party. (v) To pay punitive damages in appropriate circumstances. (vi) To discontinue the unfair/ restrictive trade practice and not to repeat it in the future. (vii) Not to offer hazardous goods for sale. (viii) To withdraw the hazardous goods from sale. (ix) To cease manufacture of hazardous goods and to desist from offering hazardous services. (x) Compensate for any loss or injury suffered by consumer under product liability action and withdraw hazardous products from being offered for sale etc.
However, every order of a district commission, the state commission or the national commission is deemed final if no appeal for such order is made by any of the parties involved in dispute. |
