A contractor is refusing to pay the balance amount for delivery goods given to psu guest house. Amount is 150000, was paid by pdc, which when presented was dishonoured due to 'alterations requires drawer authority' as stated in cheque return memo. We have lots of evidence of the transaction invoices, receiving of goods, dishonoured cheque, gst and billing address of buyer on order confiemation form. What to do is buyer refuses payment even after legal notice ? Can we file for order 37 and cheque bounce civil suit and cheating or fraud case 417/420 in ipc ? .

Yes you can file all the cases as mentioned by you. But proceed with 138 on urgent basis as the same is most effective. Be informed about the timelines for 138 proceedings as the same are very strict and cannit be condoned.
