Cheating case against supplier
Respected Lawyers,
Hello.
My company has been buying steel from a manufacturing company in Asansol, West Bengal.
Always, we paid advance to the manufacturer.
In one consignment, the goods were rejected by my customer and we agreed to return the goods back to the Asansol supplier so that he could sell the goods to other local customers and repay us.
Earlier, he committed that he would pay to us.
However, since last 4-5 months he has been turning down our phone calls and is now not willing to repay.
We have received 10% of the total amount due.
All the paper work is available with us,
Material was returned back to the supplier almost 22 months ago.
We received the last instalment from this supplier in Feb 2015.
Please help in the following -
1) under what IPC code can we file a legal complaint
2) case to be filed under which court of law
3) can we directly take police help in this matter to recover our dues ?
4) how long will the case prolong ?
Any other important information, please share with us.
