Dear Advocate,
I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to seek your legal counsel regarding a serious issue I have encountered with Agarwal's Eyecare Hospital in Pune.
My mother recently underwent a cataract operation at this hospital. Subsequently, we received an invoice for the drugs prescribed during her treatment. However, I noticed that the invoice does not mention the Corporate Identity Number (CIN), which is a mandatory requirement according to Section 12(3)(c) of the Companies Act, 2013.
The omission of the CIN raises concerns about the authenticity of the document and amounts to a forgery, causing us significant mental distress. Furthermore, we have reasons to believe that the individual responsible for issuing this invoice may not be qualified or experienced enough to handle such responsibilities, which could indicate broader issues of negligence and malpractice.
Given these circumstances, we would like to explore our legal options, including but not limited to, filing a complaint for forgery and seeking compensation for the mental injury caused. We are also considering the possibility of pursuing a tort case for negligence due to the involvement of an unqualified and inexperienced individual in a critical medical process.
Your expertise and guidance on how to proceed with this matter would be invaluable. We are eager to ensure that appropriate legal actions are taken to address this situation and prevent similar incidents in the future.
Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your prompt response and advice.
Best regards,
Kapil Pandit
