Can I file a complaint against an online seller for a defective product delivered in Balasore?
Yes. E-commerce transactions are covered under the Consumer Protection Act 2019, and complaints can be filed against the seller, the platform, or both, for defective products, non-delivery, or refusal to honour returns and refunds.
What can I claim if a builder delays possession of my Balasore flat?
You can claim compensation for delay, refund of the amount paid with interest, or possession with compensation, depending on your preference and the terms of your agreement. Complaints can be filed before the Consumer Commission or RERA, whichever offers faster and more complete relief.
How long does a consumer complaint take before the Balasore District Commission?
Consumer Commissions are meant to dispose of complaints within a few months by law, though actual timelines vary with case complexity and commission workload. Consumer proceedings are generally faster and less formal than civil suits.
Can I claim compensation if my insurance claim was wrongly rejected in Balasore?
Yes. If an insurer rejects a valid claim or delays settlement without justified cause, you can file a complaint before the Consumer Commission for the claim amount, along with compensation for mental agony and litigation costs.
Is there a time limit for filing a consumer complaint in Balasore?
Yes, a consumer complaint must generally be filed within two years from the date the cause of action arose, though delay can sometimes be condoned with sufficient explanation. It's best to consult a lawyer promptly once a dispute arises.
