How to identify cheque number

A cheque number is a unique six-digit identifier located at the bottom-left corner of a cheque leaf. It is the first set of numbers in the MICR line and is typically placed between vertical bar symbols. To identify it correctly:

• Look at the bottom white strip of the cheque.
• The first six digits from the left represent the cheque number.
• It is followed by the nine-digit MICR code.

This unique number helps users track the status of payments and maintain financial records.
