    Matter received by way of transfer.
    Present: Sh. Ankur Gupta, Ld. Counsel for the complainant with complainant.
    Matter is at the stage of consideration of complaint.
    Perusal of file shows that the legal demand notice was sent on 01.05.2024,
    while the date of return memo is 27.03.2024. Thus, there seems to be delay in sending
    of legal notice from the date of return of cheque.
    Ld. Counsel for complainant submits that the complainant had gone to the
    bank in the first week of April and collected the cheque return memo. Thus, Ld.
    Counsel submits that legal notice was sent within a period of 30 days of receiving of
    cheque returning memo by the complainant and therefore, complaint is maintainable.
    Complainant is directed to supply the deficiency by NDOH.
