Yes you can see the Court fee structure under Court fee and suit valuation Act. Feel free to contact me at the earliest because Cheque bounce cases has to be strictly within limitation period to file notice and initiate case.

You need not pay court fee on Rs.23 lakhs, just one rupees is court fee because case you will file is criminal case( private complaint). In karnataka it is 1 Re. Make an enquiry about your state court fee and stamp act. For the civil case you will have to pay the court fee on the claimed amount according your state court fee and stamp act

I am quoting your case. You have a check of 23 Lacs that has bounced with 'Signature differs' and 'Insufficient fund' . You better file both Criminal and Civil case. For criminal case there is nominal cost, and some court expenses. But for civil case it would be roughtly 7 percent of the amount you claim. The details of court fee are in teh latest version of KC F AND sv aCT.
