6. CHEQUES MEANING AND DEFINITION
A cheque is a bill of exchange in which one party orders the bank to
transfer the money to the bank account of another party. It is a
negotiable instrument that is covered under the Negotiable
Instruments Act, 1881. There are three parties involved in
the transaction – the drawer is the person who writes the cheque, the
drawee is the bank that has to transfer the funds and the payee is
the person in whose name the cheque has been issued. A cheque
can be issued against a savings account or a current account.

10. MICR:
Magnetic Ink Character Recognition, is a technology used in banking
to process and verify the legitimacy of paper-based documents,
particularly checks. MICR encoding is typically found at the bottom
of checks, and it consists of a series of numbers and characters
printed using magnetic ink.
Dishonor of cheque:
The dishonor of a cheque occurs when the bank refuses to honor or pay
the amount mentioned on the cheque. This can happen for various
reasons, and it is typically communicated to the payee through a
"cheque return memo" or a similar notice. The dishonor of a cheque
can occur at any stage during the processing of the cheque, such as
when it is presented for payment.
Crossing of cheque:
Crossing a cheque involves drawing two parallel lines across the face
of the cheque. This is done to signify that the payment should be
made through a bank and not in cash over the counter. The crossing
adds a layer of security to the cheque transaction and encourages the
payee to deposit the cheque into their bank account rather than
cashing it.
