Legal Question in Banking Law in India

Hello,

I have booked a flat and for that purpose I have give 3 cheques to a builder.

Builder hasnt yet given allotment letter of the flat. He has given me only the xerox copies of the cheque, nothing else.

I have requested the builder within 5 hours of booking that I would like to cancel my booking, so please do not deposit my cheque in bank.

The builder is keen to send the cheque for payment even after I have asked him not to do so.

To be on safer side, I have requested bank to stop payment for those 3 cheques.

Is it ok to do this?

Is there any legal liability on me?
