Select one answer
Answer and explanation

Correct answer B

Modi Cements Ltd. v. Kuchil Kumar Nandi (1998) held that Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act, 1881 applies even where the drawer stops payment; Dashrath Rupsingh Rathod v. State of Maharashtra (2014) dealt with territorial jurisdiction for Section 138 complaints; and G.J. Raja v. Tejraj Surana (2019) held that interim compensation under Section 143A is prospective. Indian Overseas Bank v. Industrial Chain Concern (1990), by contrast, concerns a bank's liability as pledgee for goods pledged to it, not dishonour of a cheque, so the answer is "(B) only.".
