How to get refund of booking amount for cancelled marriage garden?
18-Dec-2023 (In Consumer Court Law)
I had booked a Marriage garden in June'17 for a wedding that was to happen in Feb'18. There was no paper work involved, and the marriage garden owner asked for an initial booking amount. I made out a cheque of 1.5 lakh to him, post which he promised to refund 32 thousand (excluding 1 lakh booking amount + 18% GST). However, due to certain differences over the promised-expenses and asked-expenses, my family decided to cancel that venue for marriage. Now, the marriage garden owner is refusing to refund any amount from the initially paid 1.5 lakhs, even the initially paid extra 32 thousand. I am not sure as to what to do in this situation because there is no paper work involved apart from the 1.5 lakh cheque. And I also feel that 1.5 lakh is a huge cancellation amount where the overall wedding cost is expected to be about 5 lakhs. I request a proper guidance regarding legal options at my disposal as I can't really afford to part with a significant part of my life long savings.
You need to worry just relax and listen you have to first give a notice to the marriage garden owner if he does not written the amount then you have to file a civil suit in the court to recover the amount. In this case is no paper work involve you have to recover the amount from the court.
