Re: Negotiable Instruments Act

in case you have lost your cheques, it would be difficult for you to prove your case. better file a suit for recovery.

Re: Negotiable Instruments Act

A case under N.I.Act may not be maintainable in the absence of original cheques.

However, you may consider filing a civil suit for recovery of money.
