If he demanded the repayment of the said amount, you may issue a reply notice denying his demands stating it as false claim.
Let him approach court where you can challenge the same on merits in your side.

I have replied and asked tenant and advocate to withdraw legal notice and resume rent payment but he has not done so. Though I have 3 letters each(To tenant as well as advocate)written by my advocate through RPAD,I have not received AD slips,though website of postal department shows that letters have been delivered. I have been told that this is very old trick,defendent usually say that they have not received RPADs and courts routinely accept it. How to counter this?
