Sir , case can be filed either at place where cause of action arise or where defeandant has its registered office or head office . Does your company has its registered office at delhi other than chennai ? if yes than you can file case in delhi and you wont have to travel. If no , than you have to initially file case in chennai and than appeal to supreme court to transfer case to state where you are currently residing in your case its gurgaon.So , you cannot file case in kapur.
