Quick Summary

This discussion explores the complexities of determining jurisdiction for civil suits, particularly concerning a company with a registered office in Mumbai supplying goods from Nanded and receiving payment via a Pune-based fake company. Participants debate whether a recovery suit can be filed in Mumbai (registered office) or Pune (payment location), with one member suggesting the actions might constitute fraud on the court. Engaging a local lawyer is strongly recommended for navigating these intricate legal matters.

It can be instituted at either of the city.

Consult and engage a local prudent lawyer for better appreciation of documents, professional guidance and necessary proceeding

According to my opinion you are playing fraud with the court.. If it is proved during trial about the fake company then you will be liable for damages.
