The cheque bounce case can be filed if the cheque given for legally liable debt has been dishonored by bank for valid reason attracting cheque bounce offence.

In cheque bouncing case, punishment of imprisonment and fine  is awarded if guilt of accused is proved ,For recovery of cheque amount you have to file civil recovery suit.

Blank signed cheque issued for sale of gold jewelry . But I don't have proper sale gst invoice for that.

If the signature of the drawer in the cheque has not been denied then he is liable for the payment of the cheque amount.

You may in addition gather evidence for the transaction for which this cheque was issued by the drawer.

You have to prove by cogent evidence that cheque has been issued towards discharge of legally enforceable debt or liability, It appears that you have no such evidence merely admission of signature on cheque Is not sufficient to prove that cheque was issued to discharge the lawful  debt or liability.
