Central consumer court

You can appeal against the order of the district consumer court by approaching the state consumer court (i.e. the state commision) within 30 days of the order being communicated to you. (One can furthermore challenge state's decision by moving to the national consumer forum, and at last to the Supreme Court.)

even after 30 days from the order of the district consumer court delay can be made for a valid reason and that reason must be proved before the state consumer forum for the delay

You have ben appropriately advised.
