Can Demand Draft be dishonoured?

A Demand Draft is a cheque that contains an order of one branch of a bank ( Drawer branch ) directing another branch of the same bank ( Drawee branch ) to pay on demand a certain sum of money to a specified beneficiary ( Payee ) . It is an Account payee instrument, meaning it can only be credited to the account of the payee and cannot be encashed over the counter by the payee.A Demand Draft is a much safer and certain method of payment than cheques, since in the case of cheques, an individual is the drawer and hence the cheque can be dishonoured by the drawee bank due to insufficiency of funds in the drawer's account. But since in the case of a DD, the drawer is a bank, payment is certain and it cannot be dishonoured.


What is the difference between demand draft and pay order?

A demand draft is a pre paid negotiable instrument, wherein the drawee bank undertakes to make payment in full when the instrument is presented by the payee for payment. The demand draft is made payable at a specified branch of a bank at a specified centre. In order to obtain payment, the beneficiary ha to either present the instrument directly to the branch concerned or have it collected by his bank through the clearing mechanism. A banker's cheque(Pay Order) is another payment instrument which is used by the banks to settle payment obligations on behalf of their customers.

In practice, these instruments are payable at the branch of issue and are used for payment within the local clearing jurisdiction.

Technically it should be possible as the amount has to be cleared by the issuing bank. But in India things work differently, especially with public sector banks. It could also depend on the amount size, if it is a big amount, banks have an interest in cancelling and putting that amount in pending.
