                                      Satish Chander Gupta & Sons

                                                      Vs.

                                      Satish Chander Gupta & Sons

                                           C.A.No.6151 of 2001

                                (Markandey Katju and G.S. Singhvi JJ.)

                                                  26.02.2009

                                                   ORDER

1. Heard learned counsel for the parties.

2. This appeal has been filed against the order of the National Consumer Disputes Redressal
Commission [for short, "the National Commission"] dated 13th April, 2000. The said
impugned order reads as follows:

        "We have gone through the merits of the case. We agree with the view expressed by
        the State Commission. The Revision Petition is dismissed."

3. A perusal of the above order shows that no reasons have been given therein. In our
opinion, even in an order of affirmance, some reasons ought to be recorded, which need not
be as elaborate as orders passed by the District Forum or the State Consumer Disputes
Redressal Commission. Hence, we set aside the impugned order and remand the matter to the
National Commission for decision afresh after hearing the parties in accordance with law as
expeditiously as possible.

4. The civil appeal is, accordingly, allowed.
