You need to act fast, you need to send a Legal Demand Notice for the value of the bounced cheque within 15 days of bouncing of the cheque. I can help you file one immediately. All the behind the screen transactions will be helpful in the court of law, however, for now, the bounced cheque is a golden egg you just don't let you. 15 day limit starts from the date you received the bounce memo from your bank. After sending a legal demand notice, we can file a Private Complaint in Fast Track Court under Negotiable Instruments Act.
