What is meant by clearing of cheques?

If you take a cheque to your bank to pay it in, the bank will credit your account with the amount, but you will not be able to withdraw this amount until the bank has processed the cheque internally and received the money from the bank issuing the cheque. When they have done this the money is 'really' in you account and you can take it out - the cheque has cleared. This practice was needed (and reasonable) when cheques had to be processed between banks manually and protected the bank from the effects of bad cheques. However modern banking means that the clearing is electronic and yet the banks still keep the cleared funds for the same amount of time they always did (a week) - they use these uncleared funds themselves and it is wrong!


How is open cheque different from the crossed cheque?

Crossing a cheque means putting two parallel lines on the left hand top corner of the cheque. This means that, the cheque is a Account Payee cheque which means it can only be deposited into another account and cannot be exchanged for cash over the counter. This serves two purposes - you can keep a track of who encashed your cheque and also ensure that even if the cheque is lost, it cannot be misused by anyone. The person to whom the cheque was paid will be recorded.

What do you mean by at par cheque?

At par cheque is a cheque on which no charge is deducted by the bank for crediting to your account, even if your account is in a branch that is in a different city from where the cheque is issued. For example, if your account is in Mumbai, and a company with its account in Delhi gives you a cheque, the Bank will charge certain amount from the cheque, as the cheque will have to be sent to Delhi to get cleared. However, with the networking of branches of most banks, it is possible to get the cheque cleared without sending it to the issuing branch. So, many private and some public sector banks are issuing at par chequebooks to their account holders. This means that you can pay a bill in Delhi by cheque even if your account is in some different city. The receiver of the cheque will not have to pay any charge on the credit of the cheque, meaning that he will be more willing to accept your cheque
