When did it get bounced?
Send him notice for repayment immediately giving him 15 days time.
There after within 30 days file case u/s 138 of NI Act.

you have not mentioned when the cheque was presented by you to the bank and when intimation was received about dishonour . on receipt of intimation you have to issue notice within 30 days . if said period has expired represent the cheque again . then issue legal notice
