   Fact Assessment

   Advocate reviews the nature of the dues, underlying agreement, prior correspondence, and applicable limitation period to assess the strength of the claim.

2. 2

   Forum Identification

   Based on the amount and nature of the dues, the appropriate legal forum is identified, including whether MSME Act provisions, Commercial Courts, or ordinary civil courts apply.

3. 3

   Interest Calculation

   Any interest accrued under the contract or under applicable statutes such as the MSME Development Act, 2006 is calculated and included in the demand.

4. 4

   Notice Drafting

   A comprehensive legal notice is drafted citing the relevant legal provisions, the computation of dues, the applicable interest, and the deadline for payment.

5. 5

   Client Approval and Dispatch

   Client reviews and approves the notice, which is then dispatched via registered post with acknowledgement due along with documentary proof of the claim.

6. 6

   Follow-Up and Next Steps

   The advocate monitors the debtor's response and advises on negotiation, mediation, or filing proceedings before the appropriate forum upon expiry of the notice period.
