Cheque Bounce Notice (Section 138) in Bengaluru

Cheque Bounce Notice in Bengaluru — Handled End-to-End for ₹999

If a cheque given to you has bounced in Bengaluru, Adv. Bhawna Yadav and her team draft and send the statutory demand notice under Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act for a flat fee of ₹999 — no hidden add-ons, no surprise billing once the matter is underway. We tell you upfront exactly what your case needs, and if it later requires a complaint to be filed, we quote that separately and honestly, only when it actually becomes necessary.

Where This Matter Is Heard in Bengaluru

Cheque bounce complaints under Section 138 are tried before the Magistrate courts — in Bengaluru this typically means the Metropolitan Magistrate/Traffic and Sessions courts complex handling NI Act matters, or the designated Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate courts set up specifically for cheque bounce cases given the sheer volume the city generates. Jurisdiction under the amended NI Act lies with the court within whose local limits the payee's bank branch (where the cheque was presented for collection) is situated — not necessarily where the drawer lives or where the cheque was issued. This is a point people frequently get wrong, and getting it right at the notice stage saves months later. If the dispute later touches connected civil questions — say, a security cheque tied to a larger commercial or family settlement — matters can occasionally intersect with the City Civil Court, Bengaluru, but the Section 138 complaint itself stays with the Magistrate. Any appeal from a Magistrate's order in a related matter would go up through the Karnataka High Court's jurisdiction.

Bengaluru's Magistrate courts move a high volume of cheque bounce filings — from tech-park salary disputes to real estate advance-payment defaults to vendor and rental deposit cheques. A demand notice that is precisely worded, correctly addressed, and sent within the 30-day statutory window from the date of dishonour is what protects your right to file a complaint later if the drawer still doesn't pay within the notice period.

How We Work With Clients Across Bengaluru

We don't need you to visit a chamber. Everything runs over WhatsApp and email:

• Share the bounced cheque, the bank's return memo, and the underlying transaction proof digitally.
• We verify the payee's bank branch and confirm the correct jurisdictional Magistrate court before drafting.
• The notice is drafted, reviewed with you, and dispatched by registered post/courier with proof of service retained for later use.
• We track the 15-day reply window and 30-day compliance period and tell you clearly what your options are once it lapses.

This works whether you're in Koramangala, Whitefield, Electronic City, Yelahanka, or anywhere else in the metro — location inside Bengaluru makes no difference to how we handle it. It also works if you've since moved: plenty of our Bengaluru clients are NRIs — engineers and professionals from Bengaluru now based in the US, UK, Singapore, or the Gulf — dealing with a cheque bounce back home. We coordinate entirely over WhatsApp and email, across time zones, with no requirement that you be physically present in India at any stage of the notice process.
