Re: Cheque Return

If your case is not fitting under Section 138 then u have two options , the case u/s 420 of IPC or file a civil suit . But in my opinion u may go for 138 even though such remarks are there

Re: Cheque Return

If six months of cheque has not expired then once again present the cheque for encashment and in case of return proceed against him u/s.138 N.I.Act.But if the sitauation is otherwise,then consult with all details and documents,professional charges are applicable.
