24A. LIMITATION PERIOD.

(1) The District Forum, the State Commission or the National Commission shall not admit a complaint unless it is filed within two years from the date on which the cause of action has arisen.

(2) Notwithstanding anything contained in sub-section (1), a complaint may be entertained after the period specified in sub-section (1), if the complainant satisfies the District Forum, the State Commission or the National Commission, as the case may be, that he had sufficient cause for not filing the complaint within such period :

Provided that no such complaint shall be entertained unless the National Commission, the State Commission or the District Forum, as the case may be, records its reasons for condoning such delay.

Devajyoti Barman (Expert) 27 December 2011
It is 2 years from the date of cuase of action. If the cause of action is a continuing one then you can file even if the incident had happened more than 2 years back.

V R SHROFF (Expert) 27 December 2011
Prabhakarji explained in details.

2 years from the date of case of action arises, or coming to your knowledge.

Any justified delay can be condoned.
