Dear Forum,
First time to send a message. Looking for a good reply.
A piece of our land in Kapra, AP is being built on and we want to obtain a stay order as the structure is going up now. We have been told that we need to file a Civil Case and the court fees will be about 1% of the current land value. Whereas, I have seen in Mumbai and Delhi where there is a maximum fee, near Hyderabad, there is no maximum. Therefore, if our land is worth 1 crore, we need to pay about 1 lakh. Can you please confirm there is no maximum?
Also, how to I confirm the court fee is legitimate? Do I trust my lawyer? Does he get some document with authentication of the payment.
Regards,
Sridhar Rao
