My company, based in Mumbai, supplied materials to RTS Engineers in Wada on September 3rd, 2016. We were paid with a cheque drawn on Bank of Baroda, Powai, Mumbai, issued by Euroclima Mumbai. Sadly, this cheque bounced twice in the last two months. We’ve been patiently requesting payment since the first bounce, but unfortunately, our requests have been ignored. We’re now considering legal action, including serving a notice and potentially filing a criminal case. What steps should we take to ensure we get our due payment?

You should first issue a legal notice to Euroclima Mumbai demanding payment within a reasonable timeframe. If they fail to respond or pay, you can file a criminal complaint under Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act against both RTS Engineers and Euroclima Mumbai for issuing a bounced cheque.

Namaste Sir, I bought a 200 square yard plot of land near Jayanti village, about 70 kilometers from Vijayawada, six years ago. Back then, it cost me Rs 80,000. I have a receipt for the payment, but the seller never handed over the property. Despite numerous calls and visits, I was given two checks after four years, and my original receipt was taken back. However, these checks bounced. The seller claimed it was due to an urgent payment, and his account was empty. After repeated attempts, he promised to pay me Rs. 2,00,000, the current government rate, but only gave me Rs. 50,000 in November 2016. He assured me the rest would be paid in subsequent months, but that never happened. The land now costs Rs 8,000 per square yard. I am working abroad on a 28-day rotation, so I haven’t been able to follow up effectively. Recently, I learned the seller has a 420 case filed against him. I feel cheated. If this seller is allowed to continue operating his property associates in Vijayawada, others might be deceived. He has expanded his business. Please advise on how to proceed in this matter.

My cheque was returned unpaid, what can I do to get my money back?

Where can I file a complaint if someone writes me a bad check? Will the police arrest them? Can I file the complaint in my city or where the person who wrote the check lives?

Namaskar sir, A person owes us around 70,000 rupees. He gave cheques in my husband’s name, but they bounced three months ago. We spoke to him and he promised to settle soon, but he hasn’t. I only have one cheque left in my husband’s name, and he is out of the country. Should I bounce this cheque and file a case in his name?
