This query is : Resolved
In a 138NI act case is it necessary to prove the transactions made or prove the liablity towards payment made to the accused by the complainant ? or only the cheque alone shall stand as liability

you have to satisfy the court that cheque was issued in discharge of debt due and payable . that the complaint filed falls within the ambit of section 138 NI

Defence of No liability is a burden on accused.
It is presumed that chq was issued against liability. Presumption is rebut table.
