Help cheque bounce

Dear Raj,

General procedure is

First – file a complaint u/s 138 NI Act.

Second – upon being satisfied the Judge will issue summons to the accused along with bailable warrant.

Third – if the accused does not appear after receiving the above court notice then NBW is issued.

Fourth – if the accused does not appear thereafter then process u/s 82/83 of Cr.P.C. is ordered to attach the property of the accused.

In addition to the remedy under the provisions of NI Act you have remedy under CPC to file a suit for recovery also.

Before filing the complaint under section 138, you need to send a demand notice for the said cheque bounce on receipt of the bank memo.
