have you executed any document wherein you have agreed to pay the 45%interest. if you have done so you can issue notice to company claling upon them to produce documents on basis of which such interest is being demanded

no the financer has just told the interest will be charged @ 1.5% p.m.

1.5%per month amounts to 18% per annum . then how is financer charging you 45%interst rate .

There are numerous companies and banks offering vehicle loans at a reasonable interest.

Do you have any papers for borrowing or settling installments?

The clause dealing with pre clousre of loan needs to be looked into.
If it is not so harsh upon the customer closing the loan before the stipulated time then you can file appropriate proceeding under the consumer protection act.

i do agree with mr. Devajyoti barman. Consumer forum will help you. It is to be noted that company is engaged unfair trade practice.
