02 December 2011 Dear Bhavik,

RBI reduced from 6 to 3 months on 23rd November 2011, its fine, but its w.e.f 01.04.2012 banks wont accept the cheques dated more than 3 months from date of issue, so need to worry.

Bye

13 December 2011 If the cheque has become stale, You will have to write a letter to the AO with whom you had filed the return of income to issue a new cheque in lieu of the original cheque.

13 December 2011 thanks siddarha , and i got the solution of the same, as i call at helpline no.

if cheque is from cpc we need to file later with that cheque at banglore address and from that a new cheque will be received.
