The matter was listed for hearing on 12.06.2024, at which time neither

the Complainant nor the Respondent appeared before this Authority. In the
absence of any representation from both parties, this Authority issued fresh
notices to them for the subsequent date of hearing. Accordingly, the matter
was adjourned to 11.07.2024.
5.

On

11.07.2024,

counsel

for

the

Respondent

appeared,

filed

a

Vakalatnama, and sought time to file a reply. However, the notices issued to
the Complainant were returned with the remark that no such person resides
at the given address. Additionally, the contact details provided by the
Complainant were found to be unresponsive, making it impossible to establish
contact with the Complainant.
6.

The matter was again adjourned to 13.08.2024. On this date, neither

the Complainant nor the Respondent appeared before this Authority. Despite
multiple opportunities, both parties failed to present themselves or file any
substantive pleadings.

Upon careful consideration, this Authority is of the view that sufficient

opportunities have been provided to the Complainant to appear and prosecute
the case. The Complainant's failure to maintain communication, along with
repeated non-appearance, indicates a clear lack of interest in pursuing the
complaint. In light of these facts, this Authority deems it appropriate to
dismiss the complaint for non-prosecution.

Accordingly, the present complaint is dismissed for non-prosecution.

9.

In the event any party is aggrieved by this Order, they may file an

appeal before the Telangana Real Estate Appellate Tribunal, as per Section 44
of the RE(R&D) Act, within 60 days from the date of receipt of this Order.
