Formats are not provided on this site and moreover, the cheque bounce case is criminal, however, the recovery suit is civil if is filed on the basis of cheque.

Dear Mr Rajarshi Bhowmik
I think that application of section 5 is not applicable in a Case of Section 138 NI Act. However if you have any citation please provide.
Thanks

Dear Mr. Rajarshi Bhowmik!
Dear Mr. J K Agrawal is right.
The time prescribed for filing complaint is only 30 days u/s 142 of N.I.Act.
The right to condone delay in filing complaint is especially conferred upon the judicial magistrate by proviso to s.142,which reads:
"2["Provided that the cognizance of a complaint may be taken by the Court after the prescribed period, if the complainant satisfies the Court that he had sufficient cause for not making a complaint within such period.]"
Section 5 Limitation Act has nothing to do with it.
