Section 69 Consumer Protection Act | Delayed Demand for Revalidation of Expired Banker's Cheque Does Not Extend Limitation Period : Uttarakhand SCDRC
Uttarakhand State Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission rules that a consumer complaint filed four years after a banker's cheque expired, without valid cause for delay, is barred by limitation under Section 69 of the Consumer Protection Act, 2019. The ruling clarifies that mere delayed demand for revalidation does not constitute a continuing cause of action, impacting consumers and banks in limitation disputes.
