To fill a cheque in English, follow these steps to ensure accuracy and security:
- Date: Enter the current date in the DD/MM/YYYY format in the top right corner.
- Payee: Write the name of the person or organization you are paying next to "Pay."
- Amount in Words: Write the amount clearly in English followed by the word "Only" (e.g., Five Thousand Rupees Only).
- Amount in Figures: Write the numerical amount in the box provided, using a slash (/-) after the digits.
- Signature: Sign your name clearly above the "Authorized Signatory" line.
Draw two parallel lines on the top left corner and write "A/c Payee" to ensure the amount is only credited to the recipient's bank account.
