In this case, According to Section 138 of the Act, the dishonour of cheque is a criminal offence and is punishable by imprisonment up to two years or with a monetary penalty or with both. ... The payee has to send the notice to the drawer with 30 days from the date of receiving “Cheque Return Memo” from the bank. finally, we will get the cost of legal expenses and cheque amount with interest. I have a vast practice in that area you can seek my assistance in your matter.

in a 138 Negotiable Instrument Act case you cannot claim for interest component on the principal amount or recover legal fees. These are far fetched ideas, which I wouldn't encourage you to have. You can file a 138 NI Act case and then quoting that case, you can file a civil suit for recovery of money in a sub court and claim interest component and cost of legal expenses (to an extent). Contact me if you are genuinely looking for a solution, I'll give you best remedy.
