Negotiable Instrument Act

Resp. Sir,

The complaint has filed by M/s Amol Patil & Construction Company through prop. R.H.GhatgePatil. But cheque has issued in the name of M/s Amol Patil only which is bounced. Both the name of Company are different whether this complaint maintainable ? If not then under which provision of this act.

Thanking you.
