You can proceed with two remedies: 1) Present the cheques for payment (Do consult a lawyer for its effective implementation) 2) Recovery Suit can be filed. Regards, Nitin Kapoor 8800692624

Consult a practicing advocate immediately in your own interest. The cheques are useless after 90 days of the issue date anyway.

Provisions of NI Act are not applicable to cheques/cheque leafs given as security.

With due respect, provisions of NI Act protects from prosecution, it does not extend the validity of the cheque.

I agree with the advise of experts, present one of the cheques and proceed as required. Consult a local prudent lawyer for further action/ alternative / proceeding
