A.Hai,
The drawee issues a cheque bounce notice to the drawer within 30 days from the cheque dishonour. The notice must consist of information relating to the nature of the transaction, the amount specified, the date on which the cheque is deposited, the date on which the cheque is dishonoured, the reason behind cheque bounce and to request the payment of the amount (that was dishonoured by the bank) within 15 days from the receipt of such notice. The cheque bounce notice must also include the details of the drawer, and it should specify that the cheque was presented within the validity period; it should also specify that the cheque was not given as a loan or a gift but for discharging the debt. If the drawer makes the payment after receiving the cheque bounce notice, then there is no need to file a case against the drawer. If the legal notice is not taken seriously by the drawer, then it may give rise to legal action. If you find this helpful, please rate us

The cheque bounce notice must be proper format, with information like nature of transaction, amount, date of cheque deposit, date of cheque bounce, reason for cheque bounce and request to make payment within 15 days.

Once the case is filed, the court will hear the case and issue summons under Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act. The cheque defaulter would then have to submit surety and appear before the Court for resolution of the matter. If you fidn this helpful, please rate us
