On the basis of the purchase orders plaintiff supplied specified inks exclusively for the usage and consumption of the defendant. Defendant however, only paid part amount and did not clear the outstanding amount of Rs.3,18,144/­. Defendant thereafter, unilaterally and arbitrarily returned some part of the goods and deducted Rs.1,63,162/­ from the same but the said ink had been manufactured specifically for the defendant and was returned after 6­7 months therefore, it was no use to the plaintiff. The defendant had also unilaterally deducted that amount, which was not acceptable and not approved /confirmed by the plaintiff. Defendant had also caused delay in payment, harassment, humiliation, inconvenience, hardship, etc. and on this account Rs.6,00,000/­ is being claimed. Plaintiff sent legal notice dated 25.03.2020 but even after that no amount was paid by the defendant. They approached pre­litigation which was a non­starter. 3.
