Please mention the case details and the court where suit is pending. I dont think it is in Family law. Please explain in detail. Ideally court fees is deposited through Advocate in the court. At present not all courts have the facility of deposit of court fees through electronic means. Also, it is problematic to keep track of e-challans. Hence, cash deposit is the safest way. You can ask your advocate of the photocopy of the challan and stamp paper of court fees.

In which district court your daughter has filed this case and whether the court is demanding to deposit the concerned amount before starting the proceeding of this case or ur advocate is demanding for this ?? Tell me first...

DEAR MAM COURT FEE MAY DIFFER FROM CASE TO CASE AND YOU MAY FILE COURT FEE THOUGH DEPOSITING MONEY IN TREASUREY OR MAY PURCHASE THE COURT FEE DIRECTLY FROM THE VENDOR. COURT FEE IS NOT CORRECT CASH DEPOSIT IS NOT ONLY WAY COURT NEVER ACCEPT COURT FEE IN CASH MODE
