Your query is a bit confusing. You want to file a complaint agasint the shop owner or shop owner wants to file a complaint agasint the builder?
Shop owner who has bought a shop in the mall and is availing certain facilities/common services for his trade is not consumer as the activity is commercial. One can be a consumer of shop owner.
