to recover amount you can file criminal as well civil suit.

criminal case means sending notice within 30 days from date of information received by you for returning of the cheque. wait for 15 days for amount from the date of notice received by party. if not you can file case within 30 days.

Said notice can be used for filing summary suit for recovery of amount as civil suit,but you have to pay court fees amount applicable.
