Filing in consumer fora is no doubt faster and cost effective. However, since the disposal of matters is on a summary basis in consumer courts, I feel it is better to approach civil court if the matter involves high stakes. Moreover, if the matter is filed in NCDRC, the only appellate authority is Supreme Court. Whereas, if it is filed in civil court, you can avail two options for preferring appeal i.e., High Court and Supreme Court.

Consumer state commission, High Court and Civil Court are three options which are open to you.Apart from these options, you have one more authority which is known and / or called as Insurance Ombudsman which also gives remedy much more faster. Now, you have only to exercise your option as every option has some positive and negative options which has already been communicated to you by our learned brothers like prescribed court fee, time, professional fee etc.
