The National Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission in Delhi granted relief to the couple last week on Tuesday, by directing them to recover their money with 9 per cent interest from the date of booking onwards, along with Rs 5,000 as compensation for mental and physical harassment caused to them.

Mohammed Sayeed Dadarkar and Daisy Dadarkar had booked a PAL Peugeot 309 in October 1995 after depositing Rs 25,000 with Bombay Cycle and Motor Agency Ltd. By September 1997, the car had not yet been delivered and the Dadarkars decided to cancel their booking and reclaim their deposit with interest.
