    Under Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act, the notice of demand sent to the accused after cheque bounce is a mandatory legal requirement, and it must substantially comply with the legal conditions. However, the law also recognizes that minor or clerical errors do not necessarily invalidate the proceedings, as long as the essential ingredients of the offence are met.
