Three stages, in Nagpur
What is different about Nagpur
The forum
The Bombay High Court sits at Nagpur for Vidarbha, so appeals are heard here rather than in Mumbai. Commercial suits are filed at the commercial court for Nagpur district.
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. Maharashtra runs a regional council at Nagpur covering Vidarbha.
The debtors
The debtor base here is power and heavy engineering, steel and ferro alloys, mining equipment and services, logistics and cold chain, cotton and agri-commodity trading, defence and aerospace at MIHAN. The commercial belt runs through Butibori MIDC, Hingna MIDC, Kalmeshwar MIDC, Umred MIDC, MIHAN and the Kamptee Road wholesale trading corridor.
What we see in Nagpur
Central India's receivables run through the power, coal and mining supply chain, which means public sector and contractor payment cycles — long, procedural, and dependent on a bill certification step most suppliers do not track. Half the delay we see here is not refusal to pay; it is a bill that never cleared certification.
How we work a Nagpur 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
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 Nagpur debtor has ceased operating we say so and recommend a write-off — which earns us nothing. That is the point.
- 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
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
Field work where it is warranted
Practitioners and field collectors travel to Nagpur for on-the-ground work, including Butibori MIDC, Hingna MIDC and Kalmeshwar MIDC. A field visit is a decision we justify to you, not a line item we add by default.
- 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 Mumbai bench — and what each would cost and take.
- 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 Nagpur businesses
Do you have an office in Nagpur?
No. Kenstone Capital is headquartered in Bengaluru and serves Nagpur 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 Mumbai 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 Nagpur company actually be heard?
The Bombay High Court sits at Nagpur for Vidarbha, so appeals are heard here rather than in Mumbai. Commercial suits are filed at the commercial court for Nagpur district.
We are a registered MSME supplier in Nagpur. 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. Maharashtra runs a regional council at Nagpur covering Vidarbha.
