Regarding mr. Rao's query, the question is whether u can prove that u had given the money as claimed by u. It is essential that u reflect it in the returns. But the issue at the end of the day is whether u can prove the transaction.

Regarding the second query, u have to prove that the cheque was not given to u two years back. The best option is to file a summary suit also. Anyways send the notice and since the account exists, there should be no problem.
