✅Important Information✅

As per new guideline given by RBI 
spelling should be written in LAKH not LAC on cheque.

Please note
Very important information.


UPDATE : - 

No link found on web assuring this news.
However all websites of RBI use the word "LAKH" and not "LAC"
So better to write LAKH on cheque.
Prevention is always better than cure.

Hi Prasad,

I just got Whats app message, no circular found.

However below is a link by Mr. Vaidya

People can come in trouble under section 138 of NI Act if "lacs" used instead of "LAKH"

Hope this helps
