You will get refund of the court fee paid by you only if the settlement / compromise happens through Mediation Centre of the Court. No such refund will be allowed, if out of court compromise/settlement takes place.

Your query is whether refund of court fee can be granted when the matter was settled pending the suit. As per the Act under section 21 of the Legal Services Authorities Act contemplates only a compromise or settlement in respect of a matter in a pending suit. If the compromise is outside the court the court fee will not reimbursed.

Settlement through the village Head, may not be those provided under the CPC, but i am of the opinion that if the party arrived to a settlement outside the court and outside the provisions of CPC, there is no reasons why the court fees should not be refunded in full.Court fees varies from State to state and it should be the endeavur of every States/UT to come out with a legislation that in the events of any settlement outside/inside the court and before hearing of the suit, Court fees should be refunded in full.
