Any expert could suggest that what are the consequences for making no reply to a legal notice of 15days to sell a property if we are ready to pay off the claims as we have arranged funds as per compromise undertaken in the courts.

Though in the given case, the reply of the legal notice would have ended various matters and further litigation even then non-submission of reply to the legal notice is not fatal and the reply can be put at the appropriate time in the courts. An adverse inference can be taken but only in some of the cases wherein it seems that evidence has been prepared by defendant after receipt of the legal notice.
