An order has been passed in a RERA case against me. How can I check if my bank has an order for salary deduction?

Greetings,

If a RERA case order has been issued against you, here’s what you need to know:

Checking Salary Deduction Order: You can check with the court enforcement department or your bank to confirm if a salary deduction order has been issued and implemented.

Other Account Deductions: If a general attachment order is placed on your account, any incoming funds may also be subject to deduction. This depends on the specific enforcement measures taken by the court.

Dear M.,

Thank you for reaching out with your concerns.

I understand you are seeking clarification on the bank's process regarding the salary deduction order and whether other payments into your account may also be deducted. Here are the answers to your questions:

1. How to Check if the Bank Has Received the Order for Salary Deduction:

To confirm whether the bank has received the salary deduction order, you can take the following steps:

Contact the bank directly: Reach out to the bank where your salary is usually deposited. You can inquire if there is an active deduction order placed by the court on your account.

If necessary, visit the bank's branch or contact their customer service team for assistance.

Consult the issuing authority: You may also contact the court or RERA that passed the salary deduction order. They will be able to provide confirmation regarding whether the bank has received the directive.

Review your salary statement: Regularly check your salary deposits to see if the deduction is being applied. If a deduction is being made, it should appear clearly on your salary statement or account transaction history, often with a note mentioning the court order.

2. Will Any Other Payments Be Deducted?

Generally, salary deduction orders are only applied to salary. However, the implications for other payments depend on the specifics of the court order:

Salary-based deductions: The order will likely apply only to your monthly salary unless the court specifically includes other types of income, such as bonuses or allowances.

Other payments: If the funds in your account are not part of your regular salary (such as deposits from personal accounts, gifts, or refunds), they are typically not subject to the salary deduction order.

However, the bank may freeze the account if the court orders it, potentially impacting other funds in the account.

Please note that if there is any ambiguity in the court order, I strongly recommend reviewing the terms with the issuing authority or seeking legal counsel to ensure your understanding is correct.

Next Steps:

If you're unsure about the specifics of the deduction or if there is any confusion, feel free to send me the court order for a detailed review.

Keep monitoring your bank account for deductions and other transactions.

Let me know if you need any further clarification or assistance in dealing with the bank or the court.
