How to do cancelled cheque

To create a cancelled cheque, take a fresh leaf from your chequebook and draw two parallel diagonal lines across it. Write the word CANCELLED in capital letters between these two lines. Ensure that these lines do not strike through or hide essential bank details like your account number, IFSC code, or MICR code. Key safety measures include:

• Use blue or black ink only.
• Do not sign the cancelled cheque, as it is only used for account verification.
• Ensure other fields like date and amount remain blank or are crossed out.
