Hi, in July 2022 my sister had finalized a residential flat in Vasai-Virar ( Near Mumbai) but when my sister and the flat
owner went for registration same couldnt take place due to some issue probably with the property. After finding issue with
registeration my sister demanded the owner to repay Rs 2.50 Lakh which was paid before registeration but the owner kept on
delaying and after putting pressure through local poltician, the Owner agent gradually paid 1 Rs Lakh ( Came to know that
the owner had paid Rs 2.50 lakh to their agent). The agent promised to us that he will gradually return all the money same
he also gave in writing and also gave a signed Cheque which is in agent's borther name as gaurantee
But since over a month the agent hasnt paid anything and each time he is delaying & being rude. Still 1.50 Lakh is pending
, please advise how we can revover our hard earned money
You can send a legal notice to the party for recovery of money through a lawyer. then The civil remedy for the recovery of money is by way of institution of a suit in a court of appropriate jurisdiction. The suit can be instituted under Order IV of the Code of Civil Procedure 1908 (CPC).
