1st appeal State Commission.
2nd appeal National Commission.
Where to file consumer complaint
The case is filed in the city / state where the Opposite Party resides, has registered office, branch, or works for gain.
The case can also be filed in the city / state where the cause of action has occurred.
Consumer complaint can be filed in any of the following courts:
District Consumer Disputes Redressal Forum (DCDRF)
State Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission (SCDRC)
National Conumer Disputes Redressal Commission (NCDRC)
The choice of court will depend on the amount of transaction and relief you seek and the location where the cause of action arises.
If transaction and relief is Rs. 20 Lakhs or below, case is filed in DCDRF
If amount is more than Rs. 20 Lakhs but below Rs. 1 Crore, case is filed in SCDRC
If amount is Rs. 1 Crore and above, case is filed at NCDRC
