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 Thrissur
Thrissur is Kerala’s gold and jewellery capital and a centre for ayurvedic manufacturers and building-material suppliers. Jewellery trade dues between manufacturers, wholesalers and retailers are high-value and relationship-driven; a formal notice with a clear ledger often resolves them before any filing.
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
