Hello,
Please have a call with the owner discussing the grounds due to which he is refusing to return your money. If no legitimate or relevant reason is given you may demand your money. If he still does not return the money you may send a legal notice for recovery of amount. You may contact me for further query.

Sir give him a legal notice for recovering the deposit amount. Probably you will get ur amount at this stage. If he still does not r3turn the deposit amount, then u have different legal remedies like filing a suit in small causes or civil action by filing suit for recovery of money
