The problem

Recovery work runs on statutory clocks across several regimes at once: SARFAESI, the DRT and DRAT, Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act, summary suits, arbitration and the IBC. A firm with a large portfolio has to track every notice, deadline and stage, and draft a high volume of documents that must be right and must cite real authority.

The platform was first built for creditor-side firms. A dedicated borrower-defence module was added later as a first-class part of the product, so firms on either side of a recovery dispute can work from the same system.

What we built

A matter-management and AI-drafting workspace with a creditor side and a borrower side.

Creditor side

SARFAESI demand notices and auction sale notices, DRT original applications, replications, evidence affidavits and DRAT appeals, Section 138 notices and complaints, execution applications, and arbitration invocation and award enforcement.

Borrower side

Section 13(2) objections and Section 17 applications, DRT written statements and guarantor discharge defences, Section 138 replies, bail and quashing petitions, leave-to-defend applications, one-time settlement counter-proposals, and recovery-agent harassment complaints.

Portfolio statutory clocks

A portfolio-wide heat-map of statutory deadlines, with an IBC moratorium interlock, to show which matters need attention.

Case analysis tools

Account briefing, an IBC conflict check, a redemption-opportunity assessment, and an AI narrative layer over the firm's own figures. The numbers are computed in code, never left to the model.

How the AI is kept honest

The drafting engine is designed around checking, not just generating.

  1. Before each draft, a targeted Indian Kanoon search runs for that document type.
  2. A curated statutory core covers SARFAESI, the RDB Act, the IBC and the NI Act, with the leading authorities built in.
  3. A citation validator requires a structured tag on every citation. A draft that fails validation is rejected rather than shown.
  4. Every AI interaction is logged, and every output is labelled "AI draft — requires advocate review before filing or service" with a service-and-validity checklist.

Where it stands, and what it deliberately does not do

The Banking Recovery Suite is in beta by invitation at banking.legalaidai.in, as part of the Nyaya Saathi platform.

It does not file, e-file or serve anything: its outputs are drafts for an advocate to review and sign. It has no eCourts or NJDG integration, and the hearing diary is entered by hand. Some limitation day-counts are flagged as pending confirmation by a practising advocate and shown as unverified. Client case data is not held in Nyaya Saathi's own database: it stays in each firm's own Google Drive or OneDrive, accessed through that advocate's own authorisation.
