You can ask for double of the price of cell phone i.e. Rs. 1 lac will be correct.

Sir,

First you should create documents for filing case in your District consumer Court.

1. Send notice to the Sales Agent of Phone for free replacement of new phone by indicating previous attempts made for rectification of defects and fixing 21 days time for replacements.

2, If you have not received neither reply nor replacement, you may file case along with application fee.

3. There is no limit for compensation amount. But, you can claim compensation on various heads( for mental agony, deficiencies in services, Unfair trade activities etc) along with cost for filing complaint.

Regards,
