Quick Summary
If the proprietor of a firm from whom you received a substantial advance payment has passed away, you are legally obliged to repay the amount. This repayment should be made to the deceased's legal heirs or an authorised representative. If no one comes forward to claim the funds, you must return the amount, potentially with applicable interest, to the official assignee.
