First of all rather than going legally you should serve him/her a legal notice and in that notice you can write that either pay my money or face legal action which will be at your own risk. After that if he/she fails to give you a satisfactory reply then you can anytime file a recovery suit in the court to claim your money back along with compensations.

I advise you to issue a legal demand notice to the concerned company and its representative, demanding payment within 15 days. If they still fail to pay, you can file a civil recovery suit under Order 37 of the CPC for the outstanding amount along with interest and costs.

You can send a legal notice for payment and then file a civil recovery suit under Order 37 CPC based on GST invoices and proof of supply. If your firm is MSME-registered, file a claim under the MSME Act for faster recovery. Keep documents showing you’re the legal heir and current proprietor to establish your right to recover the dues.

You can recover the outstanding GST bill amount by issuing a legal demand notice to the defaulting party under the Indian Contract Act, 1872 for non-payment of dues. Mention the total amount due, invoice details, and payment timeline. If the party fails to respond within 15 days, you can file a civil recovery suit under Order XXXVII of the Civil Procedure Code (CPC) for recovery of money based on written contracts, invoices, or acknowledgment of debt. If there is evidence of cheating, fraud, or breach of trust, you may also initiate criminal proceedings under Sections 406, 420 IPC against the concerned person and company. Preserve all documents such as GST invoices, payment records, and communication as proof. Since you are now the legal proprietor after your father’s demise, obtain a legal heir certificate or succession document to prove ownership of the firm. In short, send a legal notice first, and if payment is not made, proceed with a summary suit for recovery and optionally a criminal complaint for cheating to ensure both civil and criminal remedies are pursued.
