There is no requirement of issuance of legal notice for instituting a complaint before consumer commission, however, complaint has to be filed within 2 years of cause of action in terms of Section 69 of the Consumer Protection Act, 2019.

Yes, legal notice is not mandatory and hence, would not be taken into account while computing period of limitation.
