The strategy for recovery will entirely depend on the facts: where the the lender resides, where the transaction took place, and most importantly, the nature of documents in hand (loan agreement, promissory note, cheque, acknowledgment of debt, bank transfer proofs, or even WhatsApp/email communications). The applicable forum (civil court, commercial court, or even criminal court in case of cheque dishonour) is determined by the place of cause of action and the governing terms and conditions of the loan.

If you have given someone money as a loan and you also have supporting documents (like loan agreement, promissory note, cheque, bank transfer proof, stamp paper agreement, etc.), you can legally recover it. Steps to Recover Loan Money: 1. Send a Legal Notice Through a lawyer, send a formal notice to the borrower asking for repayment within a fixed time (usually 15-30 days). Mention the loan details, proof, and consequences of non-payment. 2. Check if Cheque Was Given If repayment cheque bounced, you can file a case under Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act. This is a strong legal remedy with criminal liability.
