Demand notice is necessarily to be annexed with the complaint since it is a statutory notice along with acknowledgement and reply thereof. however you can take a chance by filing complaint along with other documents and stating on affidavit about the misplace of notice. you can support your contentions with the reply and acknowledgement. it depends on court either to register complaint and summon the accused on the basis of documents and statements.

When you have got acknowledgment and reply notice you can proceed with the case. If the accused challenged the notice then you may call the notice from the accused.

Reply notice is sufficient to say that you had sent a notice and the same has been replied. You may produce a copy of the reply notice and proceed.

Yes, the filing of copy is very much necessary as cause of action of 138 NI Act arise only after the elapse of the 15 days time period as stipulated in the notice. More over you cannot compel the accused to produce the original notice, as it would amount to compelling the accused to adduce evidence against himself.

draft and print one more copy.

when you have got reply then the notice or its contant are not the subject debat.so just by prienting another copy of said notice you can file the complient.

I do agree with Mr. Arif Iqbal, That the filing of copy of notice is very much necessary for cause of action of 138 NI Act.
