casestatus.in Summary

Summary: The Supreme Court dismissed the appeal and upheld the High Court's decision that a Section 138 Negotiable Instruments Act complaint should not be dismissed at the threshold merely because notice wasn't physically received. The Court held that "giving notice" (sending it to the correct address) differs from "receipt of notice," and if a payee dispatches a written demand notice within 15 days of learning of dishonor to the drawer's correct address, the statutory obligation is satisfied; whether the accused actually received it is a matter for trial, not grounds for preliminary dismissal. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
