My Company is forcing me to pay amount that I haven't used


09-Dec-2023 (In Criminal Law)
Three of us were interning at a company since June and we continued working there till 18th September after which we were told that they are dissolving the department but they continued to pay us till November as our contract was due till then. The company had provided us with an Uber Service which was linked to the Credit Card and we used it for company's interview travelling etc but after we left the organization we still had it and used it a few times till November. Now the company is asking us to pay the amount used from June i.e. 49000 rupees and we have only used the device from 19 Sept to 26 Nov and the entire amount we have used is around 9000 rupees. The company is just presuming that we have used it for our personal use and are harrasing is and giving us threats of court case if we don't pay 49,000. We are students and are still studying. Kindly help me out

morally it was your duty not to use the service of uber after September, just like they paid upto Nov. but it was also their duty to convey Uber service in September that u are not in their services and Stop your service, but as second part due to their deflected judgement s you are unimployed in short period of time,they spoiled your opportunity which may have or not have in that time, now they may not give experience certificate that's also a loss, at present you are unimployed simply send appollogy and letter of thanks for them for providing uber service,as it was your need to search New job, it's not a crime' it's only a mistake of fact and understanding no body challenge against it, don't give single paisa to them.
