What is different about Hubli-Dharwad

The forum

The Karnataka High Court sits at Dharwad for this region, so an appeal does not travel to Bengaluru.

If you are a registered MSME

A supplier registered on Udyam as a micro or small enterprise has a route the rest of the market does not: section 15 of the MSMED Act makes payment due in 45 days, and sections 16 to 18 let the supplier refer the unpaid invoice to a Micro and Small Enterprises Facilitation Council instead of filing suit. Interest runs at three times the RBI bank rate, compounded monthly, and a buyer who wants to challenge the award must first deposit 75 per cent of it. Traders are excluded; the registration must pre-date the supply. Karnataka runs district-level councils, so a Dharwad-registered supplier refers to the Dharwad district council.

The debtors

The debtor base here is agricultural machinery and implements, food and agro processing, steel fabrication, transport and logistics, powerloom and cotton trading, railway and engineering ancillaries. The commercial belt runs through Gokul Road, Tarihal, Gamanagatti, Lakamanahalli and the Belur Industrial Area at Dharwad.

What we see in Hubli-Dharwad

North Karnataka receivables run on the agricultural calendar. Dues from implement dealers and agro processors bunch after harvest and go quiet between seasons, and a follow-up sequence built for a monthly cycle simply misses the window when the buyer actually has cash.

We work with companies across Gokul Road, Tarihal, Gamanagatti, Lakamanahalli and the Belur Industrial Area at Dharwad.

How we work a Hubli-Dharwad file

The same six steps on every account, whether it is one invoice or a book. What changes by city is the forum and the ground work, not the method.

  1. 1

    Intake and validation

    Before anyone spends a day on your file, every debtor entity is checked: is it still trading, is it the entity that actually contracted with you, and is there anything to recover from. Where a Hubli-Dharwad debtor has ceased operating we say so and recommend a write-off — which earns us nothing. That is the point.

  2. 2

    A named practitioner, not a queue

    The file is allocated to one practitioner who owns it end to end. You deal with the person working your accounts, not with whoever answers the phone.

  3. 3

    Contact, on record

    Every call, every promise to pay and every reminder is recorded on our collection management platform. When a promise breaks, the next step follows from the record rather than from someone's memory — which is what makes escalation a step rather than a fresh start.

  4. 4

    Field work where it is warranted

    Practitioners and field collectors travel to Hubli-Dharwad for on-the-ground work, including Gokul Road, Tarihal and Gamanagatti. A field visit is a decision we justify to you, not a line item we add by default.

  5. 5

    The escalation decision, stated honestly

    We tell you when a claim is not worth enforcing, and why. Where it is worth enforcing, we tell you which route the facts support — a demand notice, section 138 where a cheque has bounced, a summary suit, or a section 9 petition at the NCLT Bengaluru bench — and what each would cost and take.

  6. 6

    Nothing filed without your written approval

    No notice goes out and no matter is filed in your name until you have approved it in writing. The advocate's fee and the court fees are stated separately, before you decide.

What it costs. Recovery is charged as a success fee — a percentage of what is actually recovered, and nothing if nothing is recovered. The DSO Reduction Programme is priced separately, as a seat-based monthly fee. Enforcement is priced case by case, with the advocate's fee and the court or tribunal fees stated as separate lines before you approve anything.

A success fee on its own rewards an agency for working your easy accounts and letting the hard ones go quiet. How recovery is priced, and the three things we do that earn us nothing →

Questions from Hubli-Dharwad businesses

Do you have an office in Hubli-Dharwad?

No. Kenstone Capital is headquartered in Bengaluru and serves Hubli-Dharwad from there. Practitioners and field collectors travel for on-the-ground work, and legal matters are run by advocates from our screened network at the NCLT Bengaluru bench and the local commercial courts. We say this plainly because a debtor will ask, and the answer does not change what we can do.

Where would a Section 9 petition against a Hubli-Dharwad company actually be heard?

The Karnataka High Court sits at Dharwad for this region, so an appeal does not travel to Bengaluru.

We are a registered MSME supplier in Hubli-Dharwad. Is there a faster route than a suit?

A supplier registered on Udyam as a micro or small enterprise has a route the rest of the market does not: section 15 of the MSMED Act makes payment due in 45 days, and sections 16 to 18 let the supplier refer the unpaid invoice to a Micro and Small Enterprises Facilitation Council instead of filing suit. Interest runs at three times the RBI bank rate, compounded monthly, and a buyer who wants to challenge the award must first deposit 75 per cent of it. Traders are excluded; the registration must pre-date the supply. Karnataka runs district-level councils, so a Dharwad-registered supplier refers to the Dharwad district council.
