How can I legally recover money lent to someone?
I lent money to someone I know, but now they are not answering calls and have also left their home. I have a recording in which he admits that he took the money. Can I recover my money through legal action?

You can send a legal notice through a lawyer demanding repayment within a specific time. If the person still does not return the money, you can file a money recovery case in the civil court using the audio recording as evidence. You may also file a police complaint for cheating or criminal breach of trust under Indian law. For further legal assistance contact us on our helpline number.
