NI Act is about offence based on bounced cheque but not about any thing else.Damages can be claimed only through civil suit.

ajay sethi (Expert) 30 October 2011
no you cannot claim damages and compensation in 138 NI act

In Notice u/s 138(B)you can not claim more or less amount than the cheque amount.

Thank God, you asked. Considering that this query is coming from a lawyer, now I am not surprised that one of my friends who filed a case against her husband for dishonour of cheque, even asked for divorce, maintenance under section 125 Cr.PC in the same complaint under Section 138 N.I. Act!!!

agree with all ! can't demand under 138. File separate suit.

NI Act has specific purpose. Don't mix other issues with the same.
