No. A cheque can be cashed only on or after the date mentioned on it
A cheque issued without a date is not a valid instrument. You cannot cash a cheque that doesnt have a date on it.
If a cheque bears a date earlier than the date on which it is presented to the bank, it is called anti-dated cheque
Every cheque has a date that has to be entered in it that signifies the date from which the cheque is a valid instrument. So, if I were to issue a cheque today that you can encash anytime from now, I will put todays date as the cheque date. However, if I want you to cash it only after Dec, I will put 1st Jan 2014 as the cheque date. This means that, up until 31st Dec 2013, the cheque is worthless and you can cash it to get money only on or after 1st Jan. This is a postdated cheque because the cheque date lies in the future.
A Post Dated Cheque is one in which the cheque date will be after todays date. Let us say I give you a cheque today with date October 15th 2011, then it will be a post dated cheque. The point here is that you cannot cash that cheque before October 15th and it can be cashed only on or after the date written on the cheque.
It means, issuing a cheque that has a date that is past today's date. Let us say you issue a cheque today, May 28th 2009 and mark the cheque date as June 10th 2009, it means you have issued a post dated cheque.

When either of the below happens: * Not enough funds in the account to pay the cheque * Signature of the cheque issuer does not match with the signature in the cheque * Cheque is expired (Date of cheque is before 6 months from date of deposit) * There are any over-writings in the cheque without being counter signed by the cheque issuer.
the person(s) or agency you wish to pay, the date, amount of money and the signature(s) of those authorised to sign the cheque.
A cheque can be cashed only on or after the cheque date. Ex: Let us say you issue a cheque to Mr. xyz today (June 2nd 2009) and mark the cheque date as July 1st 2009 (A post dated cheque) Mr. XYZ can deposit this cheque on or after July 1st 2009. If he tries to deposit before that date, the bank would reject it. A cheque is a valid and legal instrument for money transactions only after the cheque date.
PDC = post dated cheque, the date the cheque may be cashed or banked is set in the future.
If you want to use the cheque and withdraw money then the max duration is 6 months from the date of issue of the cheque.
