Can you close out account being overdranw and lost checks and ATM card?

No. An account that is overdrawn means, you owe the bank some money. So, in that case the bank will not allow you to close the account until you settle your dues properly. Once your account is no longer overdrawn you can close it, irrespective of whether you have your ATM card/check or lost it. Banks can always block checks and ATM cards easily, so they wouldn't mind.

What is overdrawn account?

Bank Overdraft is a facility wherein a bank customer can withdraw more money than what is actually available in his/her account. Let us say I have an overdraft account with ICICI Bank and have only Rs. 5000 in my account, I can withdraw even 15000 or 20000 from my account. I will have to repay this money that I took from them in future or else they will charge me an interest. The bank will also set an Overdraft limit which will define how much money over and above my bank balance I can withdraw. An account where the customer has used his/her overdraft facility is called an overdrawn account
