Surveyor's Report Can Only Be Rejected Only On Valid Grounds: NCDRC

The National Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission (NCDRC) has ruled that a surveyor’s report can only be rejected on valid grounds. In a consumer dispute, the report submitted by a surveyor was contested, but the NCDRC ruled that it could not be rejected arbitrarily. The commission emphasized that the report must be examined on its merit and that valid grounds are required for rejection. This ruling affirms the importance of transparency and fairness in the resolution of consumer disputes, ensuring that reports by professionals such as surveyors are given due weight unless there are concrete reasons for dismissing them.
