Acknowledgments
I would like to express my gratitude to the department of management sciences
for giving me the opportunity to visit the bank.
I would also like to acknowledge my debts to those officers of Askari bank who
have been extremely helpful for me.
First of all I would like to thank my teacher. They have been a permanent source
of encouragement and guidance. Their helpful nature did not restrict them to the
promises to the branch but extended to any place and any matter I needed their
support on. They give me a comprehensive summarization of the documentary
credit procedure.
I would also acknowledge my debt to all the staff of Askari bank limited at
Bahawalnagar branch for the knowledge they provided in a very frank and casual
manner. Due to their gift of wittiness the time of my work that spent with them
was most interesting and memorable one for me.

What is cheque?
Cheque is an instrument in writing containing an unconditional order, addressed to a banker, sign by the person who has deposited money with the banker, requiring him to pay on demand a certain sum of money only to or to the order of certain person or to the bearer of instrument
Types of cheque
1. Bearer Cheque
When the words "or bearer" appearing on the face of the cheque are not
cancelled, the cheque is called a bearer cheque. The bearer cheque is payable to
the person specified therein or to any other else who presents it to the bank for
payment. However, such cheques are risky; this is because if such cheques are
lost, the finder of the cheque can collect payment from the bank.
2. Order Cheque
When the word "bearer" appearing on the face of a cheque is cancelled and when
in its place the word "or order" is written on the face of the cheque, the cheque is
called an order cheque. Such a cheque is payable to the person specified therein
as the payee, or to any one else to whom it is endorsed (transferred).
12
3. Uncrossed / Open Cheque
When a cheque is not crossed, it is known as an "Open Cheque" or an "Uncrossed
Cheque". The payment of such a cheque can be obtained at the counter of the
bank. An open cheque may be a bearer cheque or an order one.
4. Crossed Cheque
Crossing of cheque means drawing two parallel lines on the face of the cheque
with or without additional words like "& CO." or "Account Payee" or "Not
Negotiable". A crossed cheque cannot be encashed at the cash counter of a bank
but it can only be credited to the payee's account.
5. Anti-Dated Cheque
If a cheque bears a date earlier than the date on which it is presented to the bank,
it is called as "anti-dated cheque". Such a cheque is valid up to three months from
the date of the cheque.
13
6. Post-Dated Cheque
If a cheque bears a date which is yet to come (future date) then it is known as
post-dated cheque. A postdated cheque cannot be honored earlier than the date
on the cheque.
Cheque Clearing Cycle
Define:
The money is not release until the cheque is verified by the bank in all respect.
Then first exchanged by banks after withdrawing from cheque issuer's account,
the receiving bank pays the depositor in its account.
This process is call cheque clearing process.
In simple terms if more than one bank is involved then it has to go thru clearing
house.
In case of dealing with, out of the country bank it needs to go thru reserve bank of
both the countries, besides going thru clearing house.
If you do not get the money after depositing the cheque then it comes back to
you as unclear check with reason, such as no such account or insufficient fund or
signature cannot be verified or stopped payment initiated by issuer.
Most banks will release the money immediately if you are in good standing
14
with them, subject to clearing of check, if it does not clear you are required to pay
back the money plus the interest on the money for using it, if you do not have an
account with that bank, if you have an account then money is taken from that
account and you are notified with unclear check notice.
How long does a cheque take to clear in other banks and other states?
If the cheque belongs to another bank but belongs to the same city - 2 days (Max)
If the cheque belongs to another bank but belongs to a different city but same
state - 2 to 3 days (Max)
If the cheque belongs to another bank and belongs to a different state - 3 to 5
days (Max)
All the durations above are under the assumption that the cheque issuing account
has cash to pay for it. The bank may not clear the cheque if the account doesn't
have funds for it.
Memorandum of cheque clearance
A document that is used if the cheque is dishonor it is given to the person who is
the holder of that cheque it is signed by the bank manager and that person show
that memo in the court. It is a legal document that has value in the court.
