How to give cancel cheque

To provide a cancelled cheque, follow these simple steps to ensure it is used only for verification and not for financial transactions:
  • Select a fresh, unused cheque leaf from your chequebook.
  • Draw two parallel diagonal lines across the face of the cheque using blue or black ink.
  • Write the word CANCELLED in bold capital letters between these two lines.
  • Do not sign the cheque or fill in any other details like name, date, or amount.
  • Ensure essential details like your account number, IFSC, and MICR code remain clearly visible for verification.
