M/S. National Seeds Corpn. Ltd vs M.Madhusudhan Reddy & Anr on 16 January, 2012

Otherwise also, as is apparent from the order impugned, compensation has been granted for causing mental agony and physical harassment to the complainant. There is no order to refund the amount paid by the respondent, to purchase the said tickets and fine. Some amount has been granted towards litigation expenses. As is evident from the provisions of 1986 Act, Section 3 provides an additional remedy to a consumer, to claim benefits of that Act, and it is an additional remedy available to the consumers and same will not be in derogation of the provisions of any other law. The Hon'ble Supreme of India, under somewhat similar circumstances, while handling issues with regard to 1986 Act and the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, [amended by The Arbitration and Conciliation (Amendment) Act, 2015] in  National Seeds Corporation Vs. M. Madhusudhan Reddy  &  anr. (2012) 2 SCC 506, as also in Rosedale Developers Private Limited Vs. Aghore Bhattacharya and others, (Civil Appeal No.20923 of 2013),  held that the plain language of Section 3 of 1986 Act, makes it clear that the remedy available in that Act, is in addition to and not in derogation of the provisions of any other law. In view of this, the argument raised by Counsel for the appellants, in this regard, stands rejected.
