---You can file a consumer case against the company. You will get your money along with interest and damages. And also inform about this incidence to the Registrar of Companies.

Z has to approach a consumer forum to redress the grievances cause by the company along with damages for mental agony caused by the company and other costs. 

As an advisory to the company, one should advise the company to refund the client's money without further delay and arrive at an compromise with regard to other legal issues in this connection.

I agree with all but here company is bankrupt now then we only can file the ptn against co. is fair or consumer redressal is fair hence deposited funds need to recover primarily i suggest as Z refuse to take 1 ref which offerred by co. that time only he need to take back his mony now he can but legally its counter reject offer and its acceptance and hence mony can claimable
