SC determined the limitation period for filing a consumer complaint did not start from January 2015 when the indemnity undertaking was executed. While initial cause of action arose in July 2015 after six months expired, parties continued engagement through correspondence and meetings with respondent and escrow agent. The complaint's focus was securing title of already-possessed flats rather than seeking escrow release. NCDRC erred in its limitation calculation since appellants sought registration and prevention of third-party alienation, not flat possession. The limitation period applies differently when relief sought relates to title security of obtained property versus property acquisition. Appeal allowed, complaint deemed within time limitations.
