Under the Consumer Protection Act, 2019, a consumer court order can be reviewed (Section 40 for District, Section 50 for State, Section 62 for National) if there is an “error apparent on the face of the record”. A review application must generally be filed within 30 days of the order, often considered by the same bench that passed the order. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5] 
Key Aspects of Reviewing a Consumer Court Order:

• Grounds for Review: A review is not an appeal. It is allowed only if there is a mistake that is obvious on the face of the record, such as a factual error, overlooked legal provision, or an arithmetical mistake.
• Time Limitation: The application for review must be filed within 30 days of the date of the order.
• Procedure: Review applications are typically decided by circulation (without formal oral arguments), usually by the same members who delivered the original order.
• Alternatives to Review:

• Appeal: If the review is not applicable, aggrieved parties can file an appeal with the higher commission (e.g., District to State) within 45 days, as outlined in Section 41.
• Revision: The State Commission or NCDRC can exercise revisional jurisdiction if the lower forum acted beyond its jurisdiction. [3, 4, 6, 7, 8] 

Differences in Legal Frameworks:

• 2019 Act: Provides specific statutory powers for review (Sections 40, 50, 62).
• 1986 Act: Did not expressly provide power to review, making it impermissible unless there was a specific statutory provision. [1, 2, 9, 10, 11] 

For detailed, authorized procedures on filing, resources such as NyayTantra and Indian Kanoon can provide specific, relevant precedents. [3, 9] 
Note: This information is based on current legal provisions and general practice within the Indian consumer court system as of 2026.
