Cheque Bounce Notice (Section 138) in Nagpur

Cheque Bounce Notice in Nagpur — Handled by Adv. Bhawna Yadav, Flat ₹999

If a cheque issued to you has bounced in Nagpur — whether it was payment for a business deal, a loan repayment, rent, or a personal transaction — we draft and send the statutory demand notice under Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act for a flat fee of ₹999. One fee, no add-ons, no surprises later.

Where This Matter Is Actually Fought: The Magistrate Court in Nagpur

Cheque bounce cases under Section 138 NI Act are tried by the Judicial Magistrate First Class (JMFC) having territorial jurisdiction — in Nagpur, this typically means the JMFC courts functioning under the District & Sessions Court, Nagpur. If the matter eventually escalates to appeal or revision, it moves to the Bombay High Court, Nagpur Bench, which has appellate and supervisory jurisdiction over criminal matters arising from Nagpur district.

A key jurisdiction point that most people miss: since the 2015 amendment to the NI Act, the complaint is filed where the payee's bank account is situated — not necessarily where the cheque was issued or signed. So if you bank in Nagpur and the cheque was deposited here, the JMFC court in Nagpur is very likely the correct forum, even if the person who issued the cheque lives elsewhere in Maharashtra or outside the state. We check this before drafting so the notice — and any complaint that follows — goes to the right court the first time.

The 15-day demand notice we send is not a formality; it is a mandatory pre-condition under Section 138. Get the wording, timeline, and service details wrong, and a magistrate can dismiss the eventual complaint on a technicality. We draft it to withstand exactly that scrutiny.

How We Work With Clients Across Nagpur — and Beyond

You do not need to visit a chamber in Nagpur to get this done. Our process is built to run entirely over WhatsApp and email:

• Share the bounced cheque, the bank's return memo (cheque return / dishonour memo), and basic transaction details digitally.
• We verify the cause of return, confirm jurisdiction (your bank branch in Nagpur, or wherever it sits), and draft the notice.
• The notice is sent by registered post / speed post with proof of dispatch, which matters later if the matter proceeds to a criminal complaint.
• We keep you updated on the 15-day and 30-day statutory clocks that follow, without you having to track court procedure yourself.

This works equally well whether you run a shop near Sitabuldi, a business in the MIDC industrial belt, or reside in a residential locality anywhere in Nagpur district. It also works for NRIs and people originally from Nagpur now living abroad — a large number of our cheque bounce clients deal with disputes back home while based in the Gulf, US, UK, or elsewhere. We handle the entire notice-to-filing process remotely; you don't lose a work day or book a flight for this.
