In order to file a cheque bounce case, when the cheque is returned unpaid, first you need to issue a statutory notice to the issuer of cheque within 30 days from the date of cheque being returned unpaid demanding the payment of cheque amount within 15 days and there after the issuer has an opportunity to pay the amount within fifteen days, if he fails to remit the amount, then you can file a cheque bounce case within 30 from the expiry of 15 days notice period under Section 200 Cr. PC. Sections 190 crpc and 156(3) crpc are not applicable here.

Dear Client,
As per present law lender will not book any case on FIR. He must first get the cheque presented in his bank account and get it bounced and get a legal notice issued under Section: 138 of the Negotiable Instruments to demand you to pay the dishonoured cheque amount within 15 from the date of receipt of Statutory Notice by you. If you fail to pay the Legally Demanded Dishonoured Cheque amount he will proceed to a Court of law by filing a private complaint against you within one month from the date of 15 days time that was given to you for payment of dishonoured cheque amount in the legal demand notice.
