Reply to notice u/s 138 n.i.act
Adv. Mohan Chandra
(Querist) 09 December 2014
This query is : Resolved
9 years down the Advocate for complainant has made allegation that the accused has not replied to the notice, the Advocate is 3rd in line over the period and the reply was sent to the original Advocate who had issued the notice. The reply has been placed before the court but the A.D.Card is not traceable over a period of 9 years now.
The Advocate states without AD card or acknowledgement stamp the validity of the said reply is questionable.
Please guide as to the implications and stand taken on behalf of accused and reference to suitable judgments.
Thanks

It is true that "without AD card or acknowledgement stamp the validity of the said reply is questionable."
Postal Receipt is also valid.
UPC is also valid as before 9 yrs it was a practice.
