Mr. Justice M.S. Rane, President—We are proceeding to dispose of this appeal at the stage of its admission itself on hearing the appellant who is appearing in person and the Advocate for the respondent who is present in response to our notice before admission issued by us earlier in this appeal and on perusal of the material available in the appeal paper book.

2. At the outset, we wish to clarify that we do not propose to dilate over the factual matrix as obtained in the matter herein since prima facie, we are satisfied that it is a fit case which must be probed by the District Forum in detail since District Forum has proceeded to dismiss the complaint with a view that claim therein was barred by Law of Limitation. However, as will be pointed out hereinafter the District Forum is not right in its said perception.

(For brevity’s sake appellant-org. complainant is hereinafter referred to as ‘Flat Purchaser’ and respondent-org. O.P. as ‘Builder’).

3. The Flat Purchaser is the appellant in this case who has filed this appeal challenged the order dated 19th November, 1999 passed by District Forum Raigad dismissing his complaint with a view that the same was barred by limitation.

4. It
