Not at all advisable. Under the Income Tax Act, any payment above Rs. 20,000/- should be by cheque. It is advisable to take a promissory note from the borrower for the amount lent. Mention cheque number in the promissory note. Pl note the validity of the p.note is three years from the date of the note, within which if the amount is not repaid u should file suit for recovery of the amount or get an endorsement of part payment on the note itself to save the limitaion period. P. Note attracts stamp duty (revenue stamps of appropriate value) and the suit if any filed will be a summary suit and will be disposed of early.
