During the adjudication of plea, the company had offered to pay Rs. 5,000 as compensation to Puri.<\/p>\n<p>The bench, in its order, noted that it was not a routine case of issuing redemption for dues to a firm, but a motivated misconduct to time out consumer by irresponsible executives of the company.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This reveals a lack of sensitivity in Opposite Party 1&#8217;s (company) executives to plight of their customers as well as no supervision in a big company like OP1 for quick redressal of consumer&#8217;s grievances,&#8221; it said.<\/p>\n<p>It also noted that the bank had supported Puri&#8217;s case by stating that his cheque was credited in company&#8217;s account.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Irked by the &#8220;&#8221; of its executives towards customers, a consumer forum in Delhi has asked Bharti Airtel Limited to pay Rs. 5 lakh, saying it was a fit case for &#8220;punitive damages&#8221; to teach the company a &#8220;lesson&#8221;.
