Oops. Sorry. As usual, I used a term more common with lawyers, than with ordinary persons. Registered notice means, a demand notice sent to the intended recepient by registered post with acknowledgement due. Note that General Clauses Act gives statutory presumption to the endorsements made by the postman on registered letters. Private courier services do not have such legal recognition. If the postman endorses that registered notice is unclaimed even after serving intimation and it is proved that you have sent the notice to the correct address, then the
law presumes that the intended receipient had the knowledge of the contents of the notice issued by you. That is the greatest advantage postal department has over courier services are concerned. There is no seperate form as such for a registered notice. In the notice, you say who you are and to whom it is addressed, what is your account number (I mean number of your account with your broker), how much amount is presently standing to the credit of that account and out of which how much you want and demand that so much amount required by you should be paid to you through account payee cheque drawn in your name with in a reasonable time say 15 days. Sing it and send it by RPAD. That is it. If your demand is still not complied, you can file the case. But do not forget to file a copy of registered notice and the postal acknowledgement before the court among other documents. Please note, if you are not comfortable with drafting notice by yourself, better leave the job to a professional (I mean a lawyer), because the registered notice sent by you will be the foundation of your case. If you do not build the foundation properly, then there is point in constructing super structure with costly materials. If the stake is huge, better not to think of saving a few rupees. I am discouraging anybody. But think and take it as a very practical suggestion. If you go wrong in building foundation, you canno correct it at a later stage. There is no point in crying over spilt milk.
What if a person dont want to take legal actions and solve the probelm directly as there are many person who dont want to take the headache of legal problems.
One solution that comes to my mind is that the person should buy shares and then transfer it to another demat account by instruction slips and then sell them , thus he will recive cash. Here we will pay brokerage, also sell price may be less than the buy price. But he recices the cash here.
any other such practical ideas?
any legal ideas?
any worst cases?
Your original problem was that you have demanded money standing to the credit of your account held with your broker and he has not paid it. I have failed to comprehend, how the present solution suggested by you, as quoted above, is a solution to your initial problem. If your broker does not pay money, in my opinion, you ave to approach the court and there is no other "legally acceptable" solution.
