Received a cheque of 5 lakhs but it got bounced due to insufficient balance
1 year ago
It's been 30 days can i send legal notice now?
A.No you should send the legal notice within 30 days to file a cheque bounce case later on. What you can do is redeposit the cheque and let it bounce again then within 30 days of the dishonour you can send the notice.

A.Good afternoon sir, you definitely can send a legal notice to the drawer of the cheque asking to make the payment. Cheque bounce is an offence under Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act, 1881 in India.
