This query is : Resolved
In NI 138 cheque bounce cases in notice and in complaint whether it is essential to give cheque no as well as bank account no.
1) If bank account no is not given and only cheque no is given , will it be fatal for the complaint.
2) If cheque no is not given and bank account no with name of the bank is given , is it sufficient.

With due respect my opinion is-
There is no need to write account no. in demand notice and petition of complaint only cheque no., date, bank name, amount are essential.
1 if cheque no is given, it is sufficient for the case and there is no need and or required to write account no.
2. 138 n.i.act cases initiated for the dishonor of particular cheque and mentioning of account no. in place of cheque no. does not help complainant in court and can go against complainant.

I think the question is repeated.
Any how, I answer here also.
1. Cheque no. is enough
2. Account no. alone is not sufficient but it will not invalid the case

This querry got posted twice since there was spelling mistake in heading.
Any way the act says account , no where it says cheque no.
