see the latest amendment in section 143A introduced by the Amendment Act No.20 of 2018 in the Negotiable
Instruments Act, 1881 and the case law G. J. RAJA Petitioner (s) VERSUS TEJRAJ SURANA Respondent(s)

Punishment prescribed in Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act, 1881 provide reply of your question.
Amendment made in the Section 143 (insertion of "A") of the Act is inapplicable in the question of the author.

You can. Let the Court decide in its wisdom.

1. The Magistrate has no jurisdiction to order any "Interest" on the bounced cheque amount.

2. The Magistrate, at his discretion can order "compensation amount", which is independent of the cheque amount.
