You may show the agreement signed with you, discount structure, accounts, reply of the company and discounts paid to another dealer to your LOCAL lawyer for a considered opinion.

company in cement trade will not give any discont structure in writing more over no SSD discount is reflected in my statement and on legal notices issued by me they have denied totally that there is such scheme in 2014 where as now in a statement issued by company there is mention of SSD scheme and it was credited to other dealers in 6/12 itself

Dear Querist

total facts as informed you, is depend on the agreement/contract executed between you and the company, you can not say or claim that the company provide scheme to another dealer, hence you yourself presume that you are also liable to get that scheme.

NADEM sir I am having copy of the statement issued by company which prove that company gave discount which doesn't reflect in my account and which ware credit ed to other dealers in 2012 itself

Trade Margins and additional discounts may be two different matters.

However you may show all docs, records and facts to your own counsel for a considered opinion.

If there is a union of traders, and it is willing to help then you may think of availing their support and at the same time be careful of setting of limitation if any in your case.
