We run a small consultancy. We had a contract with a client, with monthly invoices & payment clauses. We have completed the work and delivered it, but the client has not paid us despite multiple reminders. There is email trail of the work completed. Invoices were sent over emails. Reminders were sent on whatsapp and email. Total due amount is around Rs. 6.5 lakhs.

What are the options to recover the amount? Should I file a police complaint?

Send legal notice and then file a summary suit.

You get special protection if you are an MSME.

Send a legal notice through a lawyer.. wouldn’t cost much.

Should we create a case on MSME Samadhaan before or after the legal notice?
