A. Dear Client,
In the absence of any documentary evidence or proof supporting your claim for a refund of money lent out to your friend, you may not be able to recover the money from your friend even through litigation before the Court which is also a time-consuming process and expensive too.

A. Dear Client,
Claim against your friend for Rs.7000/- is barred by limitation now and would not be admitted because a claim is required to be filed within two years from the date of cause of action before the Consumer Court. As regards your advance to AC Vendor that you paid recently, you can file a Complaint u/s. 35 of Consumer Protection Act, 201 before the Dist. Consumer Commission claiming refund of advance and compensation for harassment.
