I am owning a business (grocery shop) in Navi Mumbai, this shop has been on rental basis. I had kept 3 employees who were maintaining the business in my absence. Till March 2014 this shop was rented in my name and i was owning the said business. Due to some consequences i couldnt regularly visit the shop and check the day to day working, in the same period one of the employee turned out the rental agreement in their own name with the owner of the shop fraudulently and now are acting as if the owner of the business and not allowing me enter the said premises. Bank Account, VAT registration has been in my name, please advise me the step forward to take back my business from them.

The Agreement was suppose to end in March 2014 at the same time I was busy due to some personal reasons. This employee got in touch with the owner and renewed the agreement into his name and then renewed the Shop & Establishment License (Gomasta License). Later he also opened up an account into the Bank using this agreement. But all the goods procured or investment made has been taken over by him and he not allowing me to enter the premises or take the ownership of the goods. Please advice what step should i take to recover the said shop.
