Closure of company is no excuse for the dishonour of cheque.You have to explore other possibilities to make good the amounts and try to settle out of court.

Jurisdiction for 138 NI Act cases is where the drawee bank situates.
If not then cases can be transferred provided evidence has not started.

once your cheque have been dishonoured you would be liable merely because company has closed business is no ground for closure of cases . cases wherein evidence has started wont be transferred

1. Cases are to be filed / proceeded where the drawee bank situates.
2. Criminal cases has to be defended on merits.

Dear sir,
Closed means not shutdown the company, presently transactions closed due to operations.

You have to fulfill the liability, your situation is no ground for any excuse to get free from the liability of payment you are due to the creditors. Consult your lawyer and discuss the steps for mitigating the problems.
