1 - 4 of 4 (0.76 seconds)Section 17 in The Consumer Protection Act, 1986 [Entire Act]
M/S. Fair Air Engineers Pvt. Ltd.& Anr vs N.K.Modi on 20 August, 1996
Section 3 of the Act, is worded in widest terms, and leaves no manner of doubt, that the provisions of the Act, shall be, in addition to, and not in derogation of any other law, for the time being, in force. The mere existence of an arbitration clause, in the document, aforesaid, would not oust the jurisdiction of the Consumer Fora, in view of the provisions of Section 3 of the Act. Similar principle of law, was laid down, in Fair Engg. Pvt. Ltd. & another Vs N.K.Modi III (1996) CPJ 1 (SC) and C.C.I Chambers Coop. Housing Society Ltd. Vs Development Credit Bank Ltd. III (2003) CPJ 9 (SC). In this view of the matter, the submission of the Counsel for the Opposite Parties, being devoid of merit, must fail, and the same stands rejected.
