Hi, What is the time limit to file civil suit on Bank who had misappropriated my money by issuing ChequeBook to a 3rd person without my knowledge and also let him withdraw money (About 10 Lakhs) with forged signatures. This happened due to negligence of Bank officials.
06/06/2015 - ChequeBook issued (Without my knowledge)
14/06/2015 - Withdraw money based on Forged cheque (First)
02/07/2015 - Continued Withdraw money based on Forged cheque (Fifth time)
05/07/2015 - I noticed/realised and complained to the Bank that money is missing
02/09/2015 - Bank confirmed that this was Fraud and registered FIR
06/07/2016 - FSL report came that the Cheques were indeed forged
My quesion is when will be the start of time limit for filing civil suit (Is it 06/06/2015 or 02/09/2015). Kindly help advise.
Thank you
