Dear Himanshu:

Approach a good lawyer and file a case before consumer forum for deficiency of service
Srinivas.B.S.S.T (Expert) 02 April 2009
Well suggested by my learned friend Vishal. Besides that you can also file a complaint with the Banking Ombudsman against R.M

As Vishal suggested there are some matters which a lawyer is not in a position to give the opinion. As your question mooted is what is the compenstion and what is the procedure. It is simple the procedure. But about compensation what decision the experts gives to you. So better meet a lawyer of who is familiar with CF works. But one thing you can assure you can approach the CF for difficieny of servioce.

1) yes you can claim compensation and the quantum depends upon the facts of the case and the damage you have suffered

2) First issue a legal notice ... if the notice is not complied with then you can file complaint before the Consumer Forum

From ur question it is clear that there is deficiency of service from the reliance money, so u can file consumer case and u can claim the expenses whatever u have made but u have to show the documents regarding the expenses u made.

Banking ombudsman has no jurisdiction on share trading service providers.

Dear friend,
from your problem, it is clear that Reliance money is something which is engaged in the business of share trading services, and you have been sufferred some loss by having no fault of yours, and the fault is on part of the trader.

So, the remedy is, firstly to file a complaint before SEBI. and secondly, to file a consumer complaint before the district consumer forum.
For filing both of the complaints you may approach a lawyer residing in your area, whbo is familiar with the consumer forum work, and better if he is familiar with the Stock Market also.

Dear Himanshu
You can validly file a case in the Consumer Forum for deficiency in service as well as unfair trade practice on the part of Reliance Money. But remember to claim Compensation you will have to prove fact regarding deficiency in service as well as unfair trade practice on the part of Reliance Money coupled with loss on account of same.
