Sample letter format application for cancellation of demand draft

Demand draft is one mode of an instrument payment in banking, which involves both the Drawer and the Payee. The drawer(bank) issues the demand draft which is pre-paid from the Drawees bank account.

However, sometimes complications occur and we are forced to cancel the demand draft because to prevent the pre-paid amount deducted, credit back into the Drawee’s bank account.

Before starting with the letter to be written to the manager, you need to figure out the exact reason for cancellation, dd number, name of the person, and also your account number to be mentioned.And please also update the styling of the letter as per your needs
