Respected experts,
I had paid full amount to the carpenter when I had ordered for making a furniture four months back.
However the carpenter is neither returning my money back or delivering me the furniture ordered.
please guide me as to under which section of IPC should I file a police complaint. And what is the procedure.

Though this is the matter of consumer and service provider/shop-keeper and such type of disputes can be raised in Consumer Forums but you are interested to teach a lesson to such person so it is better to make a complaint to the concerned police station initiating action against the Carpenter under section 420 IPC.

Though you can lodge Police complaint u/s 420 IPC but the Police will tell it as Civil Disputes. So be careful in drafting complaint.
