reduce the time taken to clear cheques. Truncation is the

process of stopping the physical movement of the cheque

issued by a drawer to the drawee branch. The physical

instrument will be truncated at some point en-route to the

drawee branch and an electronic image of the cheque is

character recognition (MICR) fields, date of presentation,

presenting banks etc. Thus, with the implementation of

cheque truncation service, the need to move the physical

instruments across branches is no longer required, except

service effectively reduces the time required for payment of

cheques, the associated cost of transit and the delay in

processing, thus speeding up the process of collection or
