ORDER

HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE V.K.JAIN, PRESIDING MEMBER (ORAL)

This appeal is directed against the order of the State Commission dated

29.11.2018 whereby a Consumer Complaint filed against the petitioner was partly allowed by the said Commission. The complainant was allotted a plot of land in Gurgaon on 01.02.2005 at the price of Rs.12,01,200/- and he paid 25% of the price.

The remaining 75% of the price would be paid in installments. The price of the plot was later enhanced by Rs.19,19,892/-. The complainant made a total payment of Rs.43,85,120/- to the appellant in installments. The case of the complainant is that the payments were made by him under protest and that interest could not have been charged on the amount by which the price was enhanced, till the possession was actually delivered to him. He therefore, approached the concerned State Commission by way of a Consumer Complaint.

The complaint was opposed by the appellant who justified the demand of Rs.19,19,892/- made from the complainant as well as the interest taken from him. On merits, it was stated that the possession was taken by the complainant on 15.06.2017. 2. Vide impugned order dated 29.11.2018, the State Commission direc
