Please tell me: Does 138 of ni act applicable and demand notice become valid when any part payment done after cheque presented in bank for encashment on same day, and demand notice does not disclose the balance exact amount and disclose the full amount of cheque.

The validity will depend on how you challenge his cheque bounce case with supporting documents in your side.

Since after presentation of cheque for encashment by payee , you made part payment of cheque amount, so payee could not made endorsement on cheque regarding balance/remaining amount and without having been made endorsement on cheque he had no option to file complaint for full cheque amount in such situation his complaint is maintainable.
