There are two ways. # If it is a normal cheque that has not been crossed (not an A/C payee cheque) you can take the cheque to the cheque issuing branch, provide an identity proof and ask for cash # If it is a crossed cheque (A/C payee cheque) you can take it your bank branch and deposit it into your account.

What is meant by post 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.
