Trust-based trades become recoverable once they are on record: a legal notice setting out the memo and invoices, Section 138 for bounced cheques, and a summary suit for the balance. Industry bodies’ arbitration is sometimes available and faster.
Diamonds, gems and jewellery manufacturing in Rajkot
Rajkot’s engineering units supply castings, auto parts, bearings and machine tools to OEMs and dealers nationwide, usually against purchase orders with delivery challans. That paperwork is what a strong notice or MSME Samadhaan claim needs, and small manufacturers here can have the case heard in Gujarat even when the buyer is in another state.
Memo (jangad) and credit sales on trust, 90 to 180 day terms, and post-dated cheques; brokers in between complicate the paper trail.
Proof to collect
Typically jangad or memo slips, invoices, broker confirmations, cheques and bank memos, and messages acknowledging the goods and the price.
- Avoid: goods given on memo with no signed slip
- Avoid: broker deals with no direct confirmation from the buyer
- Avoid: cheques held past their validity
