Dear Sir / Madam,
You gave the cheque to the builder since you owed him / her the money. I see no reason why the builder should return back the cheque to you. The builder can deposit the cheque and since it is going to bounce, the builder can file a Section 138 case of "cheque dishonour" against you for recovery of the amount.
Regards,
