[(2) The offence under section 138 shall be inquired into and tried only by a court within whose local jurisdiction,--


(a) if the cheque is delivered for collection through an account, the branch of the bank where the payee or holder in due course, as the case may be, maintains the account, is situated; or


(b) if the cheque is presented for payment by the payee or holder in due course, otherwise through an account, the branch of the drawee bank where the drawer maintains the account, is situated.

You can file the case at    P U N E, as you have been maintaining an account at Pune and cheque was returned to you from that Branch.
