 What for the cheque was given? In payment of what?

Please remember that the way 138 is drafted, it is enough if you hold the cheque to prosecute the drawer irrespective of the end result. It may be a gift cheque also. All pervading and embracing word is CHEQUE. For filing the case, bounced cheque is sufficient. It is the beginning of your misery. A case is pending in a court for the last 10 years without a hearing. Go to HC under sec.482, sell your house in fighting the case and add years to your life. What government wants to solve, it creates more problems. Because the  proposed solution is the result of knee jerk reaction.

The ITO has been given so much powers and discretion in the new Tax Code that corruption will increase and life will become miserable.
