Why Choose Diligence Certifications?

Introduction

If you’ve been let down by a faulty TV, abrupt broadband disconnection, or a flight cancelled without refund, here’s a truth: a Consumer Complaint under the Consumer Protection Act gives you legal power—and you can do it online. No legal jargon. No delays. Just justice.

What Is a Consumer Complaint?

A Consumer Complaint is a written grievance by a buyer or user (for personal use) seeking redress for defective goods or deficient services. It’s legally recognized under the Consumer Protection Act, 2019. This includes physical goods, online purchases, digital services, and even misleading ads.

The complaint must clearly state facts: purchase date, name of seller / manufacturer, defect description, evidence, and what remedy you demand (refund, replacement, compensation). Only written complaints are valid in forum proceedings.


 “A Consumer Complaint is your formal legal tool to say, ‘I paid, but I didn’t get what was promised’—and seek remedy.”

Why File a Consumer Complaint?

Enforce Your Rights

The Act guarantees remedies—refund, repair, compensation. Filing a complaint is asserting those rights legally.

Access Digital Grievance Redressal

The Online Consumer Forum allows record‑keeping, video hearings, and tracking via portal.

Hold Brands Accountable

From Amazon to Airtel, when formal complaint shows up, brands respond faster—unlike social media noise.

Faster Resolution

Online complaints typically resolve in 45–90 days. Offline courts often drag for months.

Mediation (Section 89) also offers early settlement; product liability provisions let you sue manufacturer, not just seller.

“Filing a Consumer Complaint is not optional—it’s the strongest, most transparent way to enforce your rights under law.”

Consumer Complaint

Who is a Consumer?

A consumer is an individual who uses products or services for personal use (not business or resale). A consumer is any person who pays, either fully, partly, or in installments, for a product or service. The person making a purchase can also be considered a consumer if they are purchasing a product or service after being guided and influenced by an advertisement, marketing, or promotion.

Key Rights of a Consumer in India

The Consumer Protection Act bestows important rights to guard individuals against exploitation and assure they are treated fairly: 

Right to Safety – Being protected from dangerous goods/services. 

Right to Information –  Consumers should expect full info about the goods/services being sold.

Right to Choose – A wide range of goods/services at competitive prices.

Right to Have Your Voice Heard –  Consumers can express their concerns through Consumer Complaint mechanisms.

Right to Seek Redressal –  Access to remedy and justice through Consumer Grievance Handling provisions.

Right to Consumer Education – Awareness about one’s rights, and how to exercise them.

Right Against Unfair Trade Practices – Consumers protected against unscrupulous selling tactics.

If your rights have been violated, you can make a consumer complaint online and pursue your complaint through the online consumer forum for a quick resolution.

Where to File a Consumer Complaint?

A Consumer complaint can be filed according to the worth of the goods or services and the amount of compensation requested. Depending on the amount you are claiming, you would file the claim in the District, State or National Consumer Forum. If the item or service you have purchased online, check the seller’s terms of service for the correct jurisdiction. 

You can also choose to file a consumer complaint online by using the official online forum under the Consumer Protection Act.

Benefits of Filing a Consumer Complaint

Upon filing a consumer grievance redressal, you might receive:

  • Full refund for defective goods/services
  • Repair or replacement of goods
  • Compensation for loss or mental distress
  • Reimbursement for legal costs
  • Order to desist from engaging in unfair trade practices

Filing a complaint under the Consumer Protection Act will safeguard your rights and resolve your grievances quickly.

Types of Consumer Complaint

Product Defect Complaints 

Faulty smartphones, appliances, medicines with side‑effects: these qualify under product liability. If the standard or safety criteria under BIS are violated, you can complain.

Service Deficiency Complaints 

Poor broadband service, flight delays, hotel no‑show, insurance claim denial—all count if service fails promised standards.

 E‑commerce Disputes 

Wrong item, no delivery, no refund, fake listings—especially relevant under Section 94 of the Act.

Misleading Advertisement Complaints 

Weight‑loss mania, miracle cures, with celebrity endorsements; if ads mislead, you have a cause.

Financial & Banking Complaints 

Ledger discrepancies, surprise fees, delays in EMI refunds.

Digital Services, OTT, Coaching Complaints 

Bad content, no refund, non‑delivery of promised value.

Different types may require different approach: e‑commerce claims often need order ID and seller contact; service complaints demand network logs or call‐centre references; financial complaints require bank statements.

Documents Required to File a Consumer Complaint

To file a Consumer Complaint in India, have these documents ready:

  • Complaints application and index
  • Vakalatnama/Letter of Authority (if filed by someone else)
  • Delay condonation application (if filed)
  • Photocopies of relevant documents ( bills, emails and warranties)
  • Copy of notice served on seller/service provider
  • Multiple copies of complaint (5, plus one for each opposite party)

Under the Consumer Protection Act, complaints can be made by:

  • Individuals who purchase goods/services for their own use
  • Legal heir, relative or guardian of a consumer
  • Registered consumer organisations
  • Group of consumers with similar interests

How to File a Consumer Complaint Online?

You can submit your consumer complaint online through the online consumer forum, consumerhelpline.gov.in.

Process to follow:

  • Register as a new user on the portal
  • Log in with your credentials.
  • Click on “File Complaint.”
  • Select type of complaint – product/service.
  • Fill in the details and submit your grievance.

This platform is part of the Government Consumers Grievance Redressal system and ensures timely resolution under the Consumer Protection Act.

Step 1: Provide Written Notice

Before lodging a Consumer Complaint, you must send a written notice to the seller or service provider, laying out the details of the problem and why you are unhappy. If your claim is for more than ₹10,000, we suggest contacting a lawyer and sending the notice on letterhead to convey seriousness.

Step 2: Wait for a Response

The company may respond to your notice with a solution or some compensation. If they do not respond within 15 days (or the response leaves you unsatisfied), you have a full right to go to the online consumer forum under the Consumer Protection Act. 

You can file a complaint online for a consumer complaint through the official grievance redressal system to secure a time-bound legal remedy.

Choose the Right Consumer Forum

According to the Consumer Protection Act, you have to choose the appropriate forum (District, State, or National Commission) according to your value of claim. You have the option to either file the Consumer Complaint yourself or hire a lawyer.

Draft a Written Consumer Complaint

Each online consumer forum has a prescribed form that you will have to follow. You should have attached all relevant documents to your complaint (bills, emails, delivery proof, and the legal notice to the seller). This supports your consumer grievance redressal process and evidence that you tried to resolve the issue without resorting to legal action.

Alternatively, you can seek a consumer complaint through consumerhelpline.gov.in, for the process to be faster and hassle-free.

Pay the Court Fee

A small court cost is incurred to file a consumer complaint. If a determination is made in your favor by the court, the seller may be directed to pay damages to you which may also include your legal and court costs.

How to file a Complaint as a Consumer?

You may file a Consumer Complaint on just plain paper – you do not need a stamp paper. You will need to include: 

  • Names and addresses of both parties
  • Purchase date and amount paid
  • Details of your complaint (e.g., defective goods, poor service, etc.) 
  • Your relief is requested under the Consumer Protection Act
  • Any evidence you have (bills, receipts, notices)
  • Your signature or the  signature of your authorized person

If you prefer, and for convenience, you may also file a consumer complaint online through the official online consumer forum as part of the consumer grievance redressal system.

Procedure for Filing a Consumer Complaint

If your legal notice is unanswered, the next step is to file a complaint as a consumer under the Consumer Protection Act. Following the expertise of Diligence certifications that shall walk with you through everything, you can be assured that your Consumer Complaint is drafted properly and will be purely avoidable by the unwanted legal delays that sometimes affect very legitimate consumer complaints.

How It Works:

  • Pick a plan and provide the details of your case

What is a Consumer Court?

A Consumer Court is created under the Consumer Protection Act to adjudicate disputes between consumers and either sellers or service providers. Consumer Courts are not traditional civil courts; they take less time than civil courts and are far less expensive. As such, Consumer Courts can assist consumers to resolve their complaints related to defective products, defective services, unfair trade practices, etc., more quickly than civil court. 

Levels of Consumer Forums

Based on the amount of the transaction, you can submit a consumer complaint either online or offline to the appropriate forum:

  •  District Forum – for amounts up to ₹20 lakhs
  •  State Commission for amounts to ₹20 lakhs from ₹1 crore
  •  National Commission (New Delhi)- for amounts over ₹ 1 crore
  •  Supreme Court – for appeals against the National Commission

Jurisdiction of Consumer Courts

Monetary Jurisdiction

  • District Forum: Up to ₹20 lakhs
  • State Commission: ₹20 lakhs to ₹1 crore
  • National Commission: Exceeding ₹1 crore

Territorial Jurisdiction

In a place of jurisdiction, a Consumer Complaint may be filed in respect of a matter in which:

  • The seller/service provider resides or is engaged
  • The cause of action arises (include an online transaction)
  • The consumer resides or where the product/service was delivered

Appeal Jurisdiction

  • Appeal to the State Commission if dissatisfied with a District Forum order
  • Appeal to National Commission if dissatisfied with a State Commission order

Consumer Courts provide effective justice by either online consumer forum or physical filing, making it easier for Consumers to enforce their rights and access justice under the Consumer Protection Act.
