Whether there was a written agreement or oral agreement between u.if only a oral agreement do u have any evidence of it.Anyhow u can file a civil suit for money in a munsiff court and substantiate it with documents and other witnesses.

If you have documentary evidence to prove the transaction not at all need to worry. You can go for civil remedies such as recovery of money , for damages or a criminal for breach of contract . Regards

You can recover money legally only through a Civil proceedings in a Court of law. As a first step ( not mandatory) you may send a regd. Notice demanding the amount to be paid with in a stipulated period. Wait for a reasonable time .. then you can move in Court as CIVIL CASE

You have not posted the material facts. What do you mean by "3d interior model "? Was there any written agreement ? What is the "100% evidence" you are claiming to be in possession? How is it that "she is blaming You"? All that could be suggested that you may serve a legal notice and depending upon the response, decide further course of action.

Section 37 of the Indian Contract Act,1872 provides that the parties to the contract are under obligation to perform or offer to perform, their respective promises under the contract, unless such performance is dispensed with or excused under the provisions of the Indian Contract Act or of any other law.On the validity of oral agreements while dealing with several cases the courts recognised the acceptability of oral agreements once they were found to be fulfilling the essentials provided in section 10 of Indian contract Act

When a contract has been broken, the party who suffers by such breach is entitled to receive, from the party who has broken the contract, compensation for any loss or damage caused to him thereby, which naturally arose in the usual course of things from such breach, or which the parties knew, when they made the contract, to be likely to result from the breach of it.

Send a legal notice to her immediately . If she is not ready to pay the money file a suit for recovery of money and ask damages and compensation against her breach of oral contract .
