File a complaint before concern police station for registration of fir. If police is refusing from getting the FIR registered against proposed accused person consult a competent advocate to initiate criminal proceeding before appropriate criminal court agaist the said accused person. Generally the recovery through criminal proceeding is much easier and effective rather then civil proceeding. Detailed advise be given only after perusal of all documentry & electronic records.

You can file recovery suit.

Before that you may choose to have a legal notice issued to the party to find out his intentions. Legal notice is not mandatory to be issued.

Thereafter, in case if he doesn't pay, you may file recovery suit

Hello,
Firstly you can logde a fir against the agent under section 406 that's breach of trust and 420.
Secondly as all dealings were done at the agents office so you can file a case in delhi. For further queries you can feel free to consult the undersigned
