(Passed On 31.12.2025)
Per Say Justice Sunita Yadav, President:
Aforesaid appeals arise out of the order dated 27.01.2014 passed by the
District Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission, Jhabua (for short ‘District
Commission) in C.C. No. 51/2012 whereby the complaint filed the
complainants/respondent no. 1 to 3 has been allowed. Since both appeals arise out
of the same order, therefore they are taken up together and are being disposed of
by this common order. For convenience facts are taken from Appeal No. 474/2014
unless otherwise stated.
2. Facts of the case in short are that the complainants in the year 2008
under the R.E.G.P scheme of the opposite party no.2-Khadi Gramoudyog for
establishment of unit for manufacturing Dona Pattal got sanctioned a loan of
Rs.9,50,000/- and executed the documents in favour of opposite parties on which
30% amount was to be given as subsidy. For
-3-
the security of loan they mortgaged FDRs of Rs.6,00,000/-. After completion of all
##PAGE5##formalities, the complainants took Nanka's land situated at Village-Gelarbadi and
started the unit for manufacturing Dona Pattal. The complainants were also giving
training to other beneficiaries and the complainants were made available subsidy
amount of Rs.2,99,400/- but the opposite party no.1-bank with malicious intent in
order to cause financial loss to the complainant inspected the premises and
prepared a false report and got the subsidy amount returned and the rest amount
was adjusted from the FDRs due to which the complainants suffered loss, which
amounts to deficiency in service. The complainants therefore filed a complaint
before the District Commisio seeking relief of subsidy amount with interest
Rs.3,85,333/- along with compensation and costs.
3. The opposite party no.1-bank in their reply to the complaint before the
District Commission submitted on 08.02.2008 loan was sanctioned under different
head
