Dear Sir,

After giving notice you need to file a complaint case against drawer within Thirty days from the expiry of notice period that is fifteen days. In other words you need to file complaint case against drawer within fourty five days from the date of issue of notice. Failure to do so will lead to loss of remedy however you can file a summary suit for recovery of money and initiate criminal proceedings  within three years from date of issue of cheque
