India ka Negotiable Instruments Act, 1881, ek important law hai jo trade ya commerce mein payments karne aur lene ke liye use hone wale negotiable instruments ko regulate aur define karta hai. Lekin National Crime Records Bureau (NCRB) ke 2024 ke data ke hisaab se, yeh law lagbhag irrelevant hote ja raha hai. NCRB ke data se pata chalta hai ki poore desh mein sirf 18 cases hi is Act ke under register hue hain, aur sabhi cheque bounce ke hi the. Ye cases sirf do states—Jharkhand (10 cases) aur Uttar Pradesh (8 cases)—mein hue hain.
