Commercial Use for Livelihood Retains Consumer Status Under CP Act, 1986 | Rajasthan SCDC Upholds Earthmover Buyer's Rights

Rajasthan State Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission clarifies that commercial purchases for livelihood-based businesses qualify as 'consumers' under the Consumer Protection Act, 1986. The ruling ensures that even machinery buyers like earthmover operators can seek redressal for deficiency in service, reinforcing protections for small-scale commercial users.
