Legal Question in Banking Law in India

Repossession

We filed 138 case for dishonour of cheque issued towards payment of EMI. Thereafter due to continous defaults vehicle repossessed. Are we required to withdraw the 138 case pending immediately after vehicle repossessed?

No Need to with draw Sec.138 case. If the amount is recovered by sale of the repossessed vehicle, then you can withdraw the case as no purpose will be served in continuing with the case.

No, you dont need to withdraw the 138 Case as those are sepetate proceedings.

But be ready for prosecution/consumer case if you have repossessed the car without a Court order.
