The correct answer is Option A ((a) and (c) not true).

• Filing of Complaint (a): Under Section 12, a complaint must be in writing (not oral). Hence, statement (a) is Not True.
• Definition of Consumer (b): Section 2(1)(d) explicitly excludes a person who obtains goods for resale or for any commercial purpose. Statement (b) is True.
• Pecuniary Jurisdiction (c): Under the 1986 Act (post-2002 amendment), the District Forum could entertain complaints where the value was up to Rs. 20 Lakhs (not merely up to Rs. 5 Lakhs). Hence, statement (c) is Not True.
• Women Representation (d): The Act mandates that at least one member on each State Commission (as well as District Forum and National Commission) must be a woman. Statement (d) is True.
• Statements (a) and (c) are Not True, matching Option (1).
