There is not a clearity from your Question that whether you have filed a civil suit for damages or file an application under Cr.P.C. Act provision for compensation being a victim , If you have filed a suit for Damages that Fee to claim such damages is 2.5% Appx. and if court doesn't find your suit valid and reject the same then Deposited fee will be retained by the court and in case of provision under Cr.P.C. no need to deposit any Fee for claiming such compensation from accused being a victim(You).,.,
