What is meant by 'bhatta not paid?'... where and how much ?

conveyance allowance.

Hi Sakshi,

“Bhatta not paid” means the required Court fee to be affixed for processing summons to other party is deficient.

Unless and until you remit exact required court fee you cannot go forward with processing summons to other party.

For example: As per Andhra Pradesh Court Fee Act, court fee for summoning notice to defendant/respondent is Rs. 35/-
