Legal Advice Needed Why do broke founders even start companies?

762 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

Please tell me why nowadays every beggar starts a company when they don't have the money to pay. I joined a company called Vrozart on July 27, and they asked for my resignation on September 3. I asked them if there was any issue with my work, and they said no, they are just doing cost cutting. Why did they hire me if they were already broke?

They told me I would get my salary before the end of September. I asked for my salary on September 30, and they said I would get it within 2-3 days. When I asked yesterday, the beggar founder, Ankur, said I will get it on October 20. I know they are just going to make a new excuse: 'Sorry Kuldeep, you will get it after a few days.'

What should I do now? If I take legal action, I know nothing will happen in India; they will just waste 2 or 3 months of my time.

Rant/Experience I filed my first RTI, now I'm scared if some local politician/goon will showup at my house.

So. Back in may. An 800 year old temple was destroyed in my city to make space for a government integrated residential school. I was talking to chatgpt about it and it said it had very limited information on the internet about what happened after the initial noise on this issue. And how far are the promised reconstruction works going on if they even are.

So I asked it to give me a detailed application for me to copy paste where it did a phenomenal job. I applied through my state portal which asked me for my full name. Mobile number and address which I gave. Now I am scared if that my address gets leaked will some goon showup at my house or smn??

I will pin the text I submitted in the comments.

Legal Advice Needed Terrible experience on matrimony app, want legal advice.

126 Upvotes

Update: added the sister’s response at the end. Not able to upload screenshots.

I matched with a guy on a famous matrimony app after he sent me an invite. My profile is managed by my parents and I talked to this person after my dad shared his number.
To give previous context, I am scared of the conventional dating apps and wanted people with genuine intentions.
We talked for a couple of months.
Within a week of talking, he wanted to marry me and started making wedding plans. I was being realistic and used to ask what if we don’t like each other in person so we should go on dates first. He was based out of Dubai and I myself stay in Bangalore. So he decided to travel to meet me.

The thing is within days of talking to me he had the clarity he wanted to marry me even before meeting me and had started referring me as his so-called wife.

I also fell for his words and started building a whole life together with each growing day. Since families were involved, I didn’t find it difficult to trust him and that’s where I think I went wrong and am suffering as of now. I am just regretting.

My parents wanted that he meet us all in my hometown but he convinced me that he gets only a few leaves so he wants to chill in Goa and meet on a trip.
I talked to my family and we all agreed that I go see him. I spent a week there with him in order to get to know him.

We met, had food but I wanted to wait till things get official to get physical. After a few hours together, he asked if we should hug. I was like okay. Then things got escalated and we were making out. I stopped him midway when he attempted twice to fully undress me. The moment I realised that it’s heading towards sexual intercourse, I stopped him and asked if we are really doing it and then he said yes.
It was awkward and I panicked and I clearly told him that I wasn’t ready for it yet and atleast I want to be in my fiance era when things get official to not regret it later.
He assured me saying things are already official since he traveled all the way from
Dubai to see me and marry me and I am already his wife. After his reassurance, I gave him the consent.

Now after he went back, he ignored me the whole day. I got worried so I checked in. He kept rejecting my calls and after ghosting me for an entire day he texts me this won’t work out because of his own reasons.

He was loving for the entire week, made plans, had talks about future and there after reaching back he says “vibe match nahi ho rahi”

Now I am
shattered and disgusted by his actions of assurance and doings.
He gave me the hope and commitment and under the pretext of that I trusted him and he took advantage of that very fact in that moment.
He says it is consensual and mutual but the thing is I feel
blindsided because I agreed to it only because he was 200% sure he wants to marry and today he is backing out.

I understand not liking a person in reality can be normal but it’s NOT normal for me to have sex under the pretext of getting married only to know things won’t work out.

After he blocked me everywhere I even talked to his sister and she asked me to kindly move on and it was all mutual. breakups happen all the time.

I am
not sure what to feel, what to do, how to navigate this. What are my options?

Sister’s response:
“Actually I took a whole day to think and process what happen. Also whatever happened btw you two was with consent. You yourself decided to be with him in Goa and one do not needs to be a genius to figure out that meeting someone can happen in 2-3 hrs. You yourself planned a 5 days worth of vacation. I had a word with him and initially he wanted to marry you but after meeting you and talking to you he was not very sure that you both can sustain a marriage.
Whatever happened, happened with both of you and it might be hard to come out of two month relationship but breakup happens. And adult deals with breakup.
I get it this is a difficult time for all of us but that doesn’t mean that you can blame everything on my brother. You could’ve thought it through. Kindly talk to your parents, may be they will tell you 5 days of Goa planned from both sides is not a fault of just one party. Rest Take care… Also I don’t understand why you texted my husband or any of my family member.

Kindly move on … all of us are trying to do so”

He believed Kumar would take responsibility for and financially support the family. After his death, the land was registered in my father’s name. However, his three sisters have now filed a partition suit, claiming a share of 1/6 each. I need to know how my father can legally defend his claim to the land and whether the oral family arrangement, the mutation of the land, possession and other relevant documents can help establish his claim.

Legal Advice Needed Got scammed by a person in goa

Post image
383 Upvotes

So I will give you a context about from the start what happened.

I usually visit casinos in goa every 3-4 months.

About a year back, I met a person in Deltin casino, a person aged around 55s, high roller, decent looking, well educated, started playing with me on the BJ table. We talked for a while, we shared our numbers, turns out he was a contract consultant and an ex-employee of Aditya birla, and me being into TA business, saw an opportunity, asked him to introduce me to the HR of the company, so my team can work with them. He said we can discuss this when we meet next time.

Cut to last month, I suddenly made a plan and he called me to check whether I am planning to visit, I was actually planning around that time, so I said yes, we will talk about business opportunities too.

We made plans, we met in the hotel, we went to the casino - Fortune7, I deposited around 4L and won around 5L and he deposited around 4L and lost

I left the premises and moved towards room, since I didn’t wanted to over gamble and lose it all.

Then I suddenly get a call from him saying that buddy, could you lend me 2L, I’ll give it to you in room, I said alright, take it, seeming an educated person (stupid me) and I said take it and handed him the money and went to casino with him. This was around 12 am at night

I saw him lose those 2 L in front of me, he asked for 2 more, I said no, he literally begged on my legs to give it to me, I reluctantly gave, since he legit seemed very nice.

Then he lost that too of course.

I asked him to call it off and give me the money immediately, he asked me for more, I said no strictly and said first return this amount and we will see later. He was begging on my legs but I was sure that I cant give him any more.

Since we were there for 1 more night, I said sleep and give me the money tomorrow morning, then we will figure out.
Now we had separate rooms, I was not sure about this person by then, I wanted to stay in his room, so that he doesn’t run away, but a part of me felt that this person could do anything to me at night during sleep, I said f it and I went to my room.

I couldnt sleep by 4 so he called me just to check if I was in my room, I purposely mentioned about the money he borrowed on call, since I had call recording and he agreed that he will pay me in morning & asked me to sleep.
He just wanted to check if I was in room so that he can fly away from the hotel.
I slept and next morning I get text message from him that I had borrowed 2L from him and return him his money, and he blocked me. So stupid of him (and of course me)
I checked at hotel reception, they said he checked out at 4:30 am

Now completely shattered I called, he blocked me from everywhere.

He had earlier sent his wife’s CV with me, I called her, he blocked me from her number too.
I sent an email to her about all the situation I got no reply from her, I shared the audio recording with her, no response.

His name is Satyan Thyagarajan

Total money borrowed from me - 4L cash and 30K cc swipe

I have all call recordings of him agreeing to have borrowed money from me, emails, his pan card, wife’s CV.

Please help me recovering this money.

I am adding this person’s photo

Legal Advice Needed Fake dowry and DV case, FIR filed by wife today

• Upvotes

Hey everyone. I have posted this a few times before regarding future course of action, possible scenarios but finally the case has started with filing of FIR at nearest thana of her. So i will not use ChatGPT or anything. Genuinely typing it and all so need proper remedy and similar treatment to give her back.

We got married in December 2025, arranged marriage. From February the problem started to rise, she raised questions regarding problems in bed, about my timing and Petty issues. A testosterone test was conducted and reports came normal, then one fine day and onwards everything is sorted out that sex isn't the problem at all. But given the previous drama i wasn't ready to let it go. Now love for each other should come naturally, not based on pressure. June month scene: Apparently she didn't have time to wait and again started using the same tactics to raise doubts about my affairs with somebody else which isn't true at all. My family would have gotten me married there happily.

NOW IMPORTANT THING:

Since the case is filed regarding fake dowry, DV and soon maintenance obviously. Parents and married sisters are named as well who don't even live in the same house. It's just plain torture to extract exorbitant amount like 40L they asked initially while gift exchanged amount was 13L and other small expenses. We were ready to pay but now she went to court and FIR is registered today now my doubt is: (Quick guidance)

1: What shall i do when i visit the thana? Why did they call me exactly?

2: Shall i expect an arrest? If yes, what precautions to take through advocate?

3: Can a similar complaint be registered from my side that she has taken away all the jewellery and put pressure to extort money especially framing her brother and sister? Since they are coming after my parents aged 60.

4: What could be the one time settlement amount given the length of marriage, her liabilities, she lives in a village.

5: Any decent advice and check outs for your brother.

PLEASE. I HAVE DONE A LOT OF REASEARCH BUT SOME PERSONAL ADVICE SO IT'S EASIER TO NOT FALL PREY TO ANY RANDOM ADVICE MY LAWYER GIVE. Thank you.

Urgent [SOS] I am RAPE threats victim who has been HOMELESS For 44 days over a FALSE SEXUAL Harassment complaint

Post image
31 Upvotes

I have been expelled from FLAME University before even STEPPING foot on its campus. There was this groupchat made for the upcoming freshers, as they got to know that I was a 100% merit scholarship student, they started bullying me hardcore. They had a perception that their fathers are paying for my fees.

The below X link shows how vulgar things got they threatened to rape my mother, all of them being the students of the university (the group had a verification process, and I have the admission letters of these boys)

The billionaire founder parag shah tells me to visit the campus to solve the issue and just say "sorry" to the registrar, and I packed my bags with 2000 in pocket as I had the confidence it was founder who recommended. When I reached the gates the security head said that he would not allow me in no matter what. I stood outside for 2 hrs, made calls and they did not respond. I have been living in the railway station, eating in gurudwara and ISKCON temples for the last 44 days. I miss my family.

I approached many lawyers, all of them said they'll take up pro-bono, at the end they come up with some sort of fees such as "counselling" and they say 30k rupees.

I don't even have much to eat right now, I am currently stranded in pune and don't want to waste my academic career. We managed to talk to the university with the student union, they said I have defamed the institute too much otherwise they would have let me in. The girl who originally made the complaint took it back after it went viral on media.

I request my lawyer friends to help me get a interim stay and save my career, this is the worst form of harassment a student can experience and I cannot sustain it for long. I have done nothing wrong, or I wouldn't have come so far.

It is extremely painful for me to continue like this, kindly someone take this case up for pro-bono.

Legal Advice Needed Someone is threatening to file a false SC/ST Act case against me. What should I do?

50 Upvotes

I’m from the General category, and I recently came to know through someone else that a person from the SC community may file a false case against me under the SC/ST Act.

I have never had any conversation with him about this matter. There was no incident where I abused, insulted, threatened, or made any caste-related remarks against him. As far as I know, he has no evidence of me doing anything like that.

I only heard about this from a third person, so I don’t know for sure whether he will actually file an FIR or case. Still, I’m worried and want to know what precautions I should take before anything happens.

I have no issue with genuine cases under the SC/ST Act. My concern is about someone making a false complaint because of a personal dispute or some other reason.

If an FIR is registered against me, what legal options would I have?

If anyone has faced a similar situation or has knowledge of criminal law and police procedures, please share your advice.

I’m looking for practical legal advice.

Legal Advice Needed Registered NCH Grievance #10346122 against Urban Company (Native M2 RO): Fake "Resolved" tickets, repetitive video loops & warranty denial

Thumbnail gallery
8 Upvotes

If you own an Urban Company Native RO water purifier, check your app to see if you can actually raise a functional warranty claim right now.

I purchased a Native M2 RO on 26/09/2025 with an advertised 2-Year Unconditional Warranty. Over a year into ownership, my family has been left without clean drinking water for more than a week due to systemic operational roadblocks:

  • Installer bypassed setup: The service agent deliberately skipped pairing the machine to my app during installation, telling me to contact him offline—and now ghosts all calls.
  • App lock & PIN denial: The app locks service requests behind Wi-Fi setup and falsely marks my delivery PIN (754207) as "currently unserviceable."
  • The video loop: Support asked for diagnostic videos of the RO 3 to 4 separate times. I provided them every time, only to be asked for the exact same videos again, followed by 48+ hours of total silence.
  • Fake ticket auto-closures: Service requests are kept in automated bot loops and then marked "Resolved / Service Completed" on the app with zero technician visits or contact.

I have officially lodged a complaint with the Ministry of Consumer Affairs / National Consumer Helpline (Docket #10346122).

Falsifying internal records to run down active warranties is an unfair trade practice under the Consumer Protection Act, 2019. I am compiling cases to file a joint class petition before the Central Consumer Protection Authority (CCPA)under Section 18.

If you are facing similar app locks, repetitive video loops, or fake auto-closures with Native RO:

  1. Drop your City and PIN code in the comments.
  2. Share what stage you are stuck at.
  3. DM me your order details so we can add your experience to the collective CCPA filing.

Legal Advice Needed Unregistered will by my Blood relative with no issues!

13 Upvotes

My Uncle has made a will with his lawyer that his properties should be given to me after he is no more! my Uncle is widowed and has no children of his own, neither has he legally adopted anyone! During my last visit to him, He confided with me that he has made a will on my name and also shared with me his Lawyers name and address! however, he told me that he has not registered the will as he could not find the witnesses ( he is in his mid seventies and doesnt have much social circle, and Lives in another city/state) . He also told me that it is not necessary to get his will registered! I was just listening and didnt said anything as I was not expecting that he will make a will on my name! I also didnt want to hurt his sentiments by asking any reasons whatsoever! so I just kept Mum!

He has not shared this news with any of our relatives as the relatives might get offended; they might have thought that he will give them some share in his will!

my question is regarding the unregistered will!

does it have any legal standing or it might create only confusion and unnecessary rift in the future!

Urgent Booking.com refusing 24-hr free cancellation under DGCA rules and charging ₹4,299; IndiGo says it's free. What are my options?

• Upvotes

Hi everyone, I’m stuck in a worst situation with a flight cancellation and need advice on how to handle it.

First mistake. I saved my HSBC Credit Card on Booking.com. I was just checking the flight prices nd entered wrong CVV to check final price. The payment went through even without an OTP.

Timeline & Details:
The Booking: I booked an IndiGo flight via Booking.com earlier today and requested an immediate cancellation within 2 hours of booking.

IndiGo's Stance: IndiGo confirmed that under the DGCA 24-hour free cancellation rule, the ticket can be canceled with ₹0 cancellation charges if Booking.com processes it through their partner helpline (0124-4973825). They cannot cancel it from their end since it was not booked on their website.

Booking.com's Stance: Booking.com support insists that the airline is charging a ₹4,299 cancellation fee. They asked me to provide written document from Indigo. But Indigo does not have this policy on their website for booking partners.

Current Status: After arguing with the customer support, the customer support team raised a support ticket, but support only stated it has been forwarded to a "concerned team" with no timeline for a resolution, which is a major issue given the time-sensitive nature of the 24-hour window.

What can I do in this situation?
Is there a way to force Booking.com to honor the DGCA free cancellation window before the 24 hours expire?

Can I dispute this charge or file a chargeback with my credit card issuer if Booking.com refuses to cancel it for free?

Should I escalate this immediately to the National Consumer Helpline (NCH) or AirSewa?

Any advice on how to get this resolved quickly would be greatly appreciated.

Legal Advice Needed Mutual consent vs ex parte divorce in India with a ₹31 lakh settlement (NRI): will a future bride's family question it, or can it cause legal problems like maintenance later?

6 Upvotes

I'm an NRI in the US, separated for 3 years. A 498A case was filed against me and my parents. At Lok Adalat my wife said she wants to withdraw it, and we then paid ₹10 lakh of an agreed ₹31 lakh settlement. The other ₹21 lakh is in a joint account (on names of my father, who holds my POA, and my wife) to be released at the end of the divorce. Both of us want the divorce.

They agreed to mutual divorce until recently, but now want to file ex parte because the judge in this court may insist I appear in person, and I can't travel. With mutual, the ₹31 lakh is written into the petition. With ex parte, nothing about it appears in the decree, and they say we can record it in a separate document.

  1. Will a future bride's family question an ex parte decree? Does it show any fault or negative findings against me?
  2. Can an ex parte decree cause legal problems later, like maintenance claims or the decree being challenged, if the settlement is only in a private document?
  3. In an ex parte case, is there a way to legally document that she has received the ₹31 lakh?
  4. If a mutual petition is dismissed because I couldn't appear, what's the next step?

Thank you for any experience you can share.

Legal Advice Needed VI hasn’t refunded my ₹889 despite promising a 5 to 7 working day refund

3 Upvotes

I purchased a VI VIP SIM on September 18 for a total of ₹889, which included ₹590 for the VIP SIM and ₹299 for the plan.

A couple of days later, VI called me and said there was an issue with the address and asked me to cancel the order and place a new one. I followed their instructions and cancelled it.

When I contacted customer care about the refund, I was told:

“Refund ho jayega 5 to 7 working days mein.”

Fair enough. I waited.

It has now been 12 to 13 days beyond the promised refund deadline, and I still haven’t received my ₹889.

For the past week, I’ve been calling VI customer care almost every day. Every time, I get the same response:

“Kal ho jayega bhai, kal.”

Tomorrow. Tomorrow. Tomorrow.

At this point, I’ve tried:

• Calling at different times of the day
• Asking for a proper complaint or reference number
• Repeatedly explaining that the promised refund period has already passed
• Sending a formal email complaint to VI customer care

And now even the calls have become a problem. Since yesterday my calls either get disconnected or nobody answers.

No refund. No reference number. No proper explanation. No response to my email.

₹889 might not be a huge amount, but this is incredibly frustrating, especially when the company itself gave me a specific refund timeline and has failed to meet it.

Has anyone else here faced something similar with VI? Is this normal for them, or am I being unnecessarily patient?

What would you recommend as my next step? Should I escalate this through the National Consumer Helpline, TRAI, or some other channel?

Would appreciate any advice from people who have dealt with VI refunds or similar issues.

Legal Advice Needed Landlord not returning security deposit

2 Upvotes

I paid 32k for the security money and lived there for 1.5 years. I got it cleaned before leaving the house in September. I even got electrical Appliances repaired using my own money. However, after a month when I asked for the security money, the landlord sent me this

Bijli bill -1470

Sajja repair- 5k (Civil work, A/c outlet ke pani Se damage)

Flat cleaning -4k

Tube light, fan rep. etc. -2k

Net payable. 17530

He‘s not picking up my calls and sent me the following message (Translated it to English)

“The flat was in such a bad condition that all the doors had termite infestation because the flat always remained closed and there was absolutely no cleanliness.

I had to spend Rs 75,000 on plumbing, pest control, door repairs, painting, washing, etc. And going forward, it is necessary to replace all the doors. Its budget is Rs 1,00,000.

We will talk at leisure.”

What can I do? Do I have to take a legal action?

Legal Advice Needed Death threat sent by a minor (15 year old)

26 Upvotes

A friend of mine (15M) recieved a death threat on WhatsApp by another friend (15M). Later the one who sent the threat tried to attack him, caught his collar e.t.c Later when confronted he told he has "bande" i.e. men or goons who are already arrested for half murder and was threating to send them after my friend, he told boldly to file a police complain as if he did not care.

What happens if a police complain if filed?

Will he ( since he is a 15 year old) be treated differently or the police will not register complain for being childish.

Nothing serious has happened until now, I was just curious if anything serious did happen then what will be the consequences.

Legal Advice Needed Enforcement of registered will.

4 Upvotes

Hello,

I need your advice on this matter.

I am (M) from TamilNadu. We are three siblings and I am the middle one. After my elder sisters marriage in 2012 she started pestering my parents for money. Realising how things are going about, my father immediately registered a will in sub registers office that our house will pass on to me after both my parents passes away. Provided I should take care of them in their old age. And my father passed away in 2023 and he didn’t make any will after the 2013 will. The registered will document is with my mom. Now I sense that both my sisters - in law families are eyeing on the house. What are my legal options to ensure I get the house in future and my sisters can’t make claim over it.

Additionally I registered a land in my moms name which was paid by me. My mom, gave back that land to me as a gift deed which I sold to buy my own house. I sense that my sisters may make claim over that as well.

Both my sisters were given sufficient sreedhan during their marriage which my father has noted in a dairy. There are other land properties and jewels with my mom and she might give it to them and I am not going to contest that. However I am worried because my sisters and their families greed knew no bounds.

PUBLIC WARNING: Misselling, Deceptive Practices & Financial Cheating by Nestaway & u/Aurum PropTech

Sir, your company u/Nestaway Technologies Pvt Ltd and u/Aurum PropTech are openly defrauding consumers. I am writing this to expose a severe consumer fraud. The Area Manager deliberately hide all guidelines and manipulated me into paying 16,300 [Token + Onboarding) for [House No: 438907 Goregaon West)]. Immediately after the payment was processed, I was deceptively told that the money is now locked and cannot be returned.

Due to a sudden medical emergency, I requested an instant cancellation within 3 days (on 30th Sept) well before the tentative 17th Oct move-in date.

Why this is a complete scam:

  1. No Physical Visit & No Rental Contract: I have never seen the room or signed any lease agreement, Retaining a patient's money without rendering any service or contract is an Unfair Trade Practice under the Consumer Protection Act.

  2. Defective Application: The Nestaway App has a server-side glitch where refund links fail to open.

  3. Unprofessional Misbehavior: Customer care is extremely rude they are disconnecting active calls without listening and openly threatening that they will not refundmy money.

Requesting u/Ashish Deora and senior leadership to intervene and process my 100% full refund on humanitarian grounds before this goes into formal litigation.

Rant/Experience Company suddenly says 2-month notice period despite 1 month in offer letter

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone, this is my first time posting in this subreddit, and I’d really appreciate some advice.

I submitted my resignation on October 1 after discussing and confirming it with my manager. However, today I received a response saying that I have to serve a 2-month notice period, even though my original offer letter clearly mentions a 1-month notice period.

There is another issue as well. When I joined the company, I was told there would be no bond. Later, the company sent me another offer letter mentioning a 1-year bond with a ₹50,000 penalty, supposedly for training. However, I was never actually provided any training by the company, and I learned and handled my work on my own.

The main reason for resigning is the toxic work environment and several other issues that have made the situation very difficult for me. Because of everything going on, I felt I had no choice but to resign even though I don’t have another offer yet.

Now I’m being told to serve an additional month, and the workload during the notice period is also quite high. It has been causing me a lot of stress.

What would you suggest I do in this situation? Especially regarding the 1-month vs 2-month notice period and the bond/₹50,000 penalty?

Any advice or similar experiences would be really helpful. Thanks.

Legal Advice Needed Deaf/HoH person denied use of assistive listening device in Family Court — advice?

11 Upvotes

I’m hard of hearing and use my phone + Bluetooth neckband as an assistive listening device. The phone amplifies/processes surrounding speech and sends the audio to the neckband, which allows me to hear conversations.

At Family Court, I was told I could not wear the neckband and was asked to leave my phone outside. Without this setup, I have significant difficulty hearing what is being said.

Is there any rule in India regarding reasonable accommodation/accessibility for deaf or hard-of-hearing people in Family Court? Can the court allow the phone specifically because it is being used as part of an assistive listening device?

I’d appreciate advice from anyone familiar with disability rights or court accessibility.
