Bank is refusing to accept the DD proportionate to the amount of EMIs because it is apprehensive that cheques for further installments may also bounce in a similar manner. Since the case has been filed by bank you should appear in the court through your lawyer and submit that you are willing to pay the amount of cheque.

If you file a case against bank then your legal expenses will exceed the amount that you intend to save.
