Frequently asked questions

How do I write the amount in words on a cheque?
Write the rupee amount in words followed by 'only' — for example ₹12,500 becomes 'Twelve Thousand Five Hundred Rupees Only'. Paise, if any, are written after 'and', like 'and Fifty Paise Only'.
Why write 'Only' after the amount on a cheque?
'Only' closes the amount so no one can add extra words or digits after it — a simple anti-fraud step that banks expect on the words line of every cheque.
