What happened

The company informed BSE that it has shared a complaint under Section 138 read with Section 142 of the Negotiable Instruments Act, 1881, before the court of the Sub-Divisional Judicial Magistrate at Chandil, Seraikela-Kharsawan.

What it means in simple terms

Section 138 is the cheque-bounce provision. When a cheque given to settle a debt is returned unpaid, the receiver can start a criminal case against the issuer. Here the company is the complainant, meaning it is the party trying to recover money owed to it.

The amount involved is a receivable from a customer or debtor rather than a claim against the company. The outcome depends on the court process, and recovery timing is not certain at this stage.
