Mr.Debasish,
Please see the following section:-
S.204 (4) cr.p.c. When by any law for the time being in force any process-fees or other fees are payable, no process shall be issued until the fees are paid and, if such fees are not paid within a reasonable time, the Magistrate may dismiss the complaint.
Mr.Rajvinder Singh,
You can bring it to the knowledge of the court by a memo or orally.
