This Revision Petition came up for hearing before me today and on

hearing the learned counsel for the Revision Petitioner and having gone

following:

ORDER (Open Court)

THIRU. R. SUBBIAH J., PRESIDENT

The Revision Petitioner herein is the 1st opposite party in

C.C.No.113 of 2023 on the file of the District Commission, Namakkal.

2. This Revision Petition has been filed as against the order dated

10.10.2024 passed by the District Commission, Namakkal, in C.C.No.113

of 2023, has been placed before this Commission for ‘maintainability’.

3. Heard the learned counsel for the revision petitioner.

4. Learned counsel for the revision petitioner has submitted that

under Section 47(1)(b), Sec. 2(6) and Sec.2(8) of the Consumer Protection

Act, 2019, the State Commission is empowered to exercise its revisionary

jurisdiction as against both interim as well as final orders passed by the

District Commission. It is settled law that if the legislation is clear and

unambiguous, then the literal meaning of the same has to be adopted and

the wordings employed has to be given full effect to. Therefore, unless and

3

until there is a doubt on the terminology ‘consumer dispute’ and ‘pending or

final’ as found in Sec.47(1)(b), it would be just to employ the literal meaning

of the words and hold that revisions as against any orders of the District

Commission is maintainable. Thus, the counsel for the petitioner/1^st

opposite party prays to take up the Revision Petition on file and order for a

notice to the respondents.

5. But, this Commission is unable to accept the submissions made by

the counsel for the petitioner/1^st opposite party in view of the order passed

in R.P.No.48 of 2025 dated 15.12.2025, wherein this Commission has

come to the conclusion that the revision will not lie as against the final order

passed in the complaint filed by the 1^st respondent/complainant herein.

The relevant portion in the order in Para 11 as follows:

“The CP Act, 2019 delineates a clear separation between appeals,

which serve as the principal remedy, and revision, which functions as a

narrowly tailored, corrective mechanism and, within this framework,

Section 47 distinguishes between the broad appellate powers under

Section 47(1)(a)(iii) and the limited revisional powers under Section

47(1)(b).

While appeals under Section 47(1)(a)(iii), along with procedural

safeguards including pre-deposit requirements, allows on aggrieved party

to seek a comprehensive re-hearing on both factual and legal issues,

4

providing the opportunity to challenge evidence, findings and legal

conclusions, thereby ensuring substantive justice, revisions under Section

47(1)(b), by contrast, is intentionally narrow in scope, designed solely as a

supervisory jurisdiction to correct jurisdictional defects, excess or absence

of jurisdiction, illegality or foundational material irregularities.

Critically, revision does not extend to merit-based re-examination of

final orders, nor can it permit reassessment of evidence or factual findings.

Its purpose is to prevent miscarriage of justice arising from structural,

procedural or jurisdictional i
