B2B recovery is a legal process, not a phone campaign
Business dues come with paperwork (POs, GST invoices, delivery proof) and with laws written for exactly this problem: the MSMED Act’s 45-day limit and statutory interest, Section 138 for bounced cheques, summary suits for invoices. A B2B recovery company uses those; a consumer agency cannot. FundRaksha’s advocates do, for Patna suppliers of every size.
Recovering B2B dues in Patna: what is specific here
Patna’s business is distribution and government supply: stockists carrying brand dues, building-material suppliers waiting on contractors, and vendors to state departments. Payments are rarely refused outright; they are delayed through reconciliation and approvals. A legal notice with a clear statement of account, followed by Samadhaan for Udyam units, is usually what moves them.
Main industries: FMCG and pharma distribution, construction materials, government and PSU supply, agri-trading and education services.
Courts: Judicial Magistrate courts at the Patna Civil Court complex for Section 138; District Court, Patna, and its Commercial Court for recovery suits.
MSME claims: Udyam-registered micro and small suppliers in Patna file on MSME Samadhaan, heard by the Bihar Micro and Small Enterprises Facilitation Council (Directorate of Industries, Government of Bihar, Patna). The Council sits where the supplier is, so a Patna supplier can pursue a buyer in another state from home.
Common B2B defaults in Patna
- FMCG and consumer goods distribution: Brand dues: scheme and claim settlements that lag months; retailer dues: weekly credit that becomes a running balance.
- Construction, contractors and building materials: Running account bills certified against measurement books, 10% retention held for months, and payment tied to the developer’s own collections.
- Government, PSU and institutional supply: Bills pass through inspection, measurement, sanction and audit; delays come from paperwork, budget releases and staff changes rather than refusal.
- Pharmaceuticals and pharma distribution: Manufacturers sell to marketing companies on 45 to 90 day credit; stockists and distributors carry brand dues against schemes, expiry returns and credit notes that are reconciled slowly.
