Dear Recovery on Money,

From your details, it looks like you have all the requisite documents. File a money suit immediately. Last but not the least, I would suggest you to send the purchaser of your materials an Advocate Notice before rushing to the court. The contractor may be from anywhere in India. Once you have delivered the materials, the contract is fulfilled from one side and lack of payment by the contractor is violation of Contract Act.

Make sure that the Advocate you recruit does not delay the suit. Normally Money Suit doesn’t take long to be heard, hence make sure the Advocate you recruit fights for your cause.

All the best in recovery of your money.

You may set the legal process in motion by issuing a lawyer's notice to him. If he does not return the money thereafter then file a suit for recovery.
