The complaint is filed to get back the amount paid to the respondent firm. The case is as follows. Believing respondent’s words that the money borrowed will be returned with attractive terms the complainant paid Rs.11,815/- on 7.8.07 and Rs.2400/- on 23.8.07. The respondent issued receipts for the payment and agreed to repay with interest when required. The complainant approached several times to get back the amount. But the amount has not been returned back. Hence the complaint.

 

            2. The respondent called absent and set exparte.

 

            3. The complainant filed affidavit and produced the receipts to prove his case. They are marked as Ext. P1 to P3.
