The case is that, the 1st complainant deposited Rs.25,000/- on 10/2/2006, the 2nd complainant deposited Rs.10,000/- on 18/8/2005, the 3rd complainant deposited Rs.6,250/- on 25/7/2005 and Rs.17,500/- on 20/11/2005 with the opposite parties. Late Smt.Nirmala Krishnan, wife of 1st complainant and the mother of 2nd and 3rd complainant had also made deposits of Rs.10,000/- and Rs.25,000/- dated 20/10/05, 10/2/06 respectively with the opposite parties. The complainants are the legal heirs of late Smt.Nirmala Krishnan. The opposite parties promised that the amount will double in nine years. But they never returned the amount as offered. So the complainant sent a lawyer notice on 10/10/2015 to the opposite parties. But the offered amount not returned so far. Hence the complaint.
2. The opposite parties are served notice properly. But they were absent. So set exparte.
3. The complainants filed proof affidavit and five documents produced. It was marked as Exts.P1 series to P5. Ext.P1 series are the deposit receipts to prove the amount deposited with opposite parties. There is no evidence to the contrary.
4. In the result the complaint is allowed and opposite parties are directed to pay the double amount covered by Ext.P1series (6 Nos.) with 12% interest from the date of filing till realization with cost Rs.3,000/- (Rupees Three thousand only) within one month from the date of receipt of copy of this order.
