There is a difference between Bill of Echange and Promissory Note. Once the cheque is bounce there is an offence under the NIA.

Judgement by Justice Dalveer Bhandari
The operative part reads:
The maker of the cheque is not liable for prosecution if
the cheque is given by way of a gift, present or donation and is dishonoured.
In other words giving the cheque does not constitute an offence under Sec.138 unless debt/legally enforceable debt is proved.
