🚀 How to Recover Your Money Legally?

❗ 1. Start with a Legal Notice 📜

• Send a formal demand letter stating repayment terms.

• Many people pay up after receiving a legal notice! 😅

❗ 2. File a Civil Suit for Money Recovery ⚖️

• If they still ignore you, file a case under Order 37 of CPC.

• The court can order repayment with interest.

❗ 3. Use the Negotiable Instruments Act for Cheques 🏦

• If they issued a cheque that bounced, file a Section 138 complaint.

• This can lead to imprisonment + a fine!

❗ 4. Criminal Action for Fraud (In Some Cases) 🚨

• If the borrower lied or cheated to take the loan, file a criminal case.

• Section 420 IPC (Cheating) & Section 406 IPC (Criminal Breach of Trust) apply.
