How to give cancelled cheque

To give a cancelled cheque, follow these simple steps to ensure your bank details are verified safely without any risk of misuse:
  • Take a fresh, unused cheque leaf from your chequebook.
  • Draw two parallel diagonal lines across the face of the cheque using a pen with dark ink.
  • Write the word CANCELLED in capital letters between these two lines.
  • Ensure essential details like your account number, name, IFSC, and MICR code remain clearly visible and are not covered by the lines.
  • Do not sign the cheque or fill in any other details.
