A bounced cheque can be redeposited.Most banks in the country levy certain charges from their customers in case a cheque bounce occurs.

Cheque bounce is a 'dishonour of cheque' that happens when the account holder has non-sufficient funds (NSF) in the bank account or if the signatures on the cheque do not match with the original signature of the cheque issuer.

When there are insufficient funds in an account, and a bank decides to bounce a check, it charges the account holder an NSF fee.

The charges towards a cheque bounce vary from one bank to another, depending on factors such as the reason and nature of cheque bounce. State Bank of India (SBI):SBI cheque bounce charges, as mentioned on the bank's website - sbi.co.in:Cheque/bill deposited with the bank returned unpaid by others (Local/ Outstation)Cheque/bill up to Rs 1.00 lakhRs 150/- + GSTCheque/bill above Rs 1.00 lakhRs 250/- + GSTCheque Returned Charges for Cheques drawn on us (for insufficient funds only)For all customers Rs 500/- + GST, irrespective of the amountCheque returned charges for Cheques drawn on us(for technical reasons) for all customers.(Not to be charged where customer is not at fault as perRBI guidelines)Rs 150/- + GSTICICI Bank:ICICI Bank cheque bounce charges, as mentioned on the bank's website - icicibank.comCheque ReturnsLocal cheque deposited by customerRs.100 for every cheque return for financial reasonsCheque issued by customerRs.350 for one cheque return per month; Thereafter, Rs.750 per return in the same month for financial reasons Rs.50 for non-financial reasons except for signature verificationTransfer cheque returns will be charged at Rs.
