File complain to police u/s 420 and 406 IPC.

1)issue legal notice to ex tenant to refund your money with interest 

2)if he refuses sue to recover your money with interest in Mumbai 

1. he seems to be not in the mood to repay the money anymore and if that is so then take legal recourse to get back the money.

2. So file a civil suit for recovery of money.

3. To expedite getting back the money file a criminal case of cheating as well.

See you have to serve the legal notice to the said person fir return of the amount.

Dear Sir,
