The Demand Letter For Bounced Check is a crucial legal document used in the Indian jurisdiction when a check has been dishonored by a bank for various reasons such as insufficient funds, account closure, or signature mismatch. This document is mandated by Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act, 1881, and must be sent within 30 days of receiving the check return memo from the bank. It serves as a final opportunity for the check issuer to make payment before legal proceedings are initiated. The letter includes essential details such as check number, amount, date of issuance, reason for dishonor, and bank details. It's commonly used in business transactions, commercial dealings, and personal financial matters where payment by check has failed. The document must be carefully drafted as it forms the basis for subsequent legal action and must comply with specific requirements under Indian law.
