Dear Sir/Madam,
Under instructions from and on behalf of my client, Client's name, having its registered office at Name of estate/industrial area of client's registered office Estate, Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh, I hereby serve upon you the following legal notice for the amicable resolution of the issues concerning the settlement and closure of my client's loan account:
1.That on 31.01.2023, you, the Addressee, sanctioned an Invoice Discounting Facility of INR 40,00,000/- (Rupees Forty Lakhs Only) to my client, under Application No. Loan application number, for a tenure of 12 months.
2.That my client duly availed of the said facility in good faith and complied with the repayment obligations in accordance with the agreed terms and conditions stipulated in the said facility.
3.That as of April, 2024, after consistent repayments, my client had reduced the total outstanding amount to approximately INR 2,00,000/- (Rupees Two Lakhs Only).
4.That in the month of April, 2024, an oral settlement was reached between my client and Territory Development Manager's name, Territory Development Manager (TDM) of you, the Addressee, regarding the total outstanding amount.
5.That under the said agreement, the outstanding dues were agreed to be settled for INR 26,000/- (Rupees Twenty-Six Thousand Only), and my client committed to remitting the said amount in May, 2024, so as to close the loan account.
6.That unfortunately, in May, 2024, my client was falsely implicated in a criminal case and subjected to wrongful incarceration, rendering him incapable of fulfilling the agreed settlement terms within the stipulated time. This unforeseen and uncontrollable circumstance prevented my client from honouring the settlement agreement during the agreed period.
7.That after being released on bail, my client promptly approached you, the Addressee, and your representatives, requesting you to honour the earlier oral settlement and expressing readiness to remit the agreed sum of INR 26,000/-. However, to my client's shock and dismay, you, the Addressee, refused to honour the prior agreement and instead imposed exorbitant interest, penalties, and other charges, thereby inflating the outstanding amount to an unreasonable extent.
8.That despite repeated requests, you, the Addressee, have failed to provide my client with a clear and detailed statement of accounts reflecting the breakdown of the dues, including principal, interest, and charges.
9.That my client remains committed to amicably resolving this matter and seeks to settle the account on terms similar to the earlier oral agreement, or on any other fair and reasonable terms proposed by you, the Addressee, considering the genuine and unforeseen circumstances that caused the delay.
10.That my client values the professional relationship with you, the Addressee, and seeks to resolve this matter amicably without resorting to unnecessary disputes. Therefore, we request you to honour the earlier settlement amount of INR 26,000/-, as agreed. Alternatively, you may provide a detailed statement of accounts specifying the current outstanding amount, with a clear breakup of principal, interest, penalties, and charges, to enable further discussions.
You, the Addressee, are required to respond to this legal notice. In the event you, the Addressee, fail to amicably resolve this matter within 15 days from the date of receipt of this notice, my client will be constrained to challenge the imposition of unjustifiable charges and exorbitant interest before the appropriate legal forum or court of law, and to seek appropriate legal remedies for settlement of the dispute, including but not limited to filing complaints before consumer forums, courts, or regulatory bodies, holding you, the Addressee, liable for unfair trade practices and harassment.
In addition, my client shall claim damages for mental agony, financial hardship, and loss of business reputation caused by your unreasonable conduct.
This legal notice is being issued as a final opportunity to resolve the matter amicably and to restore mutual trust. My client urges you, the Addressee, to consider the genuine circumstances of the delay and to cooperate in reaching a fair and just resolution.
Please treat this notice with utmost urgency and importance so as to avoid unnecessary legal disputes.
