The contention of the learned counsel for applicant is that the applicant has started an E-bike business. For getting E-bike, token number and booking number is given. When the total number of bookings reaches to the number equivalent to the token number, the customer gets the E-bike. The token number of the complainant is 92, whereas the total booking of e-bike was only to the extent of number 60, but the complainant, without
