It is his case that nothing has been returned. He has sought for refund a sum of Rs.75,000/- with interest at the rate of 18%.
3. It is the case of the opposite parties that the amounts were received in deposit with undertaking to buy the lottery tickets and magazines. It is denied that there is an offer to return the amount in double within hundred weeks.
