Chandigarh, February 27 The District Consumer Disputes Redressal Forum I has directed Rediff.com India Limited and Shop Mart in Maharashtra to pay a compensation of Rs 5,000 for not delivering an order within the stipulated time.

The petitioner, Saurabh Puri, resident of Sangrur, stated that he had purchased a leather wallet along with a complimentary table alarm worth Rs 200 through the internet. The product was available on a discounted price on the occasion of Father's Day. He averred that it was mentioned on the website that the delivery of the products was free in Ropar, Chandigarh and Patiala. After registering the order, he gave his address at Ropar, after he received a mail confirming the order. Further, he also got confirmation of the payment for the product he had purchased. Saurabh alleged that the product was not delivered to him even though he reminded the company several times. However, through a mail dated July 12 last year, Puri was told his delivery address was not serviceable and the amount would be refunded, which the company claimed was refunded to him.

The forum headed by Jagroop Singh Mahal stated: "There are many errors in providing the service by the company to the petitioner. The order was made for offering the gift to his father on Father's Day. Even if it was accepted, by not delivering the product on the specific date as was desired by the petitioner, the company has shown deficiency in service.
