send a legal notice to them through your counsel on the registered office address as well the residential addresses of the directors and give them 15 days time, if they are not ready to accept the amount within notice period then after the notice period you may instruct to your bank for stop payment and file a writ petition before the High Court for the same.

You may not get responses for your emails because once the office is not functioning then how can you expect any response from them.Hence you were advised to write to them and send the communication by registered post.

Due to current pandemic crisis, you will not find any office functioning in normal manner hence you may have to wait for some more time to allow the things to return to normalcy.

Dear querist, 

1. transfer the amount through online mode(Preferably NEFT transfer)

2. send the notice of intimation on their registered mail id and cc your loan agent also. 

3. To be very certain once the lockdown ends, you cans end the formal notice of intimation in hard copy. 

 

even if, they are not responding, it will be considered that you closed the loan once you made the full and final payment including the interest amount upto the date thereof.

Issue a legal notice to their registered head office in India, stating that you are dissatisfied with their services and want to close the home loan or shift the home loan to another bank. If they do not respond, then approach the consumer court seeking out your redressal.

You can write (email, whatsapp, sms) to the the Head Office and your home branch of India Bulls from where you obtained loan, stating that, you intend to close your home loan by submitting banker cheques  and make a specific mention of not paying interest due to their non availability.

Using the above, you can claim waiver of interest payable.

You have to wait till lifting of lock down, and close the same immediately on their commencing of business.
