Dear Sirs,
Please find below the copy in verbatim the email which my client company got from one of the service renderers. The questions are 1) Is this a notice under 138 NI? If yes, then should we reply immediately or If no, still should we reply or wait for the actual notice to come.
Dear Mr.Malik
Kindly refer your above cheque for Rs.92000/in favor of Vardhman Custom clearing & Forwarding Agents was dishonored on 27/9/12 by our HDFC bank for the stated discrepancy “Drawer’s signature incomplete & illegible”.
“As you are aware that Cheque dishonor/bouncing is made punishable as offence under negotiable instrument act of section 138.The drawer can be awarded two year of imprisonment & fine may extend the twice of amount of cheque or both.”
In the light of above serious default by you, Pls. send Demand Draft of same amount by tomorrow maximum 2PM, failing which we may go for legal course of action.
Best Regards
D. Banerjee
