Just think what you will be doing, when you are in the same position of your client.  The client believed you and with trust he has paid that amount.  It is your duty to have such bonafide contacts and should not let down those clients that approach you, with trust on your abilities.  If you want your image, reputation somehow pay the amount to your client without attracting adverse publicity and make your attempts for recovery from the concerned.

Firstly save yourself from FIR under section 138 NI Act and section 420 IPC, so pay the client his money from your pocket. Next try to track the person whom you paid the money and get it back from him, if not possible then better mark this transaction as bad debts in your business financial record.
