The case challenged the constitutionality of Sections 34(1), 47(1)(a)(i), and 58(1)(a)(i) of the Consumer Protection Act, 2019 (CPA 2019), which determine the pecuniary jurisdiction of the District, State, and National Consumer Commissions based on the "value of goods or services paid as consideration" rather than "compensation claimed" as under the 1986 Act. The petitioners, a widow whose husband died in a vehicle fire and another widow whose husband died from COVID-19, argued that these provisions unfairly limited their access to higher commissions. The Supreme Court upheld the constitutionality of these sections, affirming that they do not violate Article 14. The Court also emphasized the need for the Central Consumer Protection Council and Authority to review and advise the government on measures to enhance the functioning of the consumer protection regime.
