A filed suit against B for recovery of money based on pronote. At the time execution of pronote English year date differ from corresponding tamil year date. Whether the variation of date in English year and Tamil year helps to B?

Did you write both the date? But it will not help. However, for limitation purpose (3years for pronotes), it may help.

Variation of date will not invalidate the pronote. At the same time it can question the limitation.

The variation will definitely create a reasonable doubt in the mind of the court. The reason for such variation has to be properly explained by the plaintiff. Otherwise the defendant can take advantage of it and argue that the pronote is a fabricated one on this ground of variation. In the absence of any explanation on this variation, the court can draw an adverse inference under Sec.114(g) of the Indian Evidence Act.

It will depend on the nature of defence set up by the defendant.
