Point zero zero

Last week, I got a bill from a corporate entity that sends me one every month. The amount due, for no reason I can figure out, is Rs 0.00. (Zero rupees and zero paise).

The due date is March 3 2009.

The "Amount Due Before Due Date" is, as I would expect, Rs 0.00. (Zero rupees and zero paise).

The "Amount Due After Due Date" is Rs 112.36 (One hundred twelve rupees and thirty-six paise).

I have two questions.

* What happens if I sit back and don't pay the amount due, Rs 0.00, before March 3? Will someone come after me to extract Rs 112.36 from me because I didn't pay nothing?

* What happens if I get off my butt and pay the amount due, Rs 0.00, before March 3? Will someone come after me to extract Rs 112.36 from me because I did pay nothing?

As you can tell, I am faced with an acute dilemma. All said and done, I'm inclined towards sending in a cheque for Rs 0.00. Better, I suspect, to pay nothing than not to pay nothing.

Still, any advice will be gratefully accepted.
