Cheque bounce is always a willfull offence u/s 138 NI ACt.Of course it can be defended too with merits.Taking of PD Cheques would not have been mentioned in the agreement,and they have obtained as a precautinary measure.

Sir, I need further clarification. We adopt this system of taking posted dated cheques from Mgmt Trainee and the same shall be mentioned in the agreement. Bond period shall be 3 yrs, the cheque will be of 1 lakh. Can u suggest precautionary measures, technicality(legal issues) to be taken care while executing this system.

Such bonds are only enforceable if the company provides some specialized training to the employee.
