Promissory note validation

Hi,

One of my friend met a financier and he told that if  you give money to me i will give you interest 5Rs per  month  for every 100 and told that he will be providing promsissory note for that and also he will give a post dated check for the amount which my friend will give.

Could you pleae advise if my friend give the money and as an agreement if he takes promissory note and also receives postdated check, is it good investment and also please tell whats the  step to be taken  if the financier defaults is there any way which  we can get the money legally in case the financier defaults.

To recover the money limitation is 3 years from the date of execution of promissory note.  If there is cheques then those cheques can be used to recover the money by putting the date.  It is better to consult your lawyer so you can get the details

Go Ahead. Your money will be safe. Promissory note can also be renewed / replaced before expiry of Limitation period of 3 years. However,

Prem can secure his interest for a further period of Three years by getting the Promissory Note revalidated/ renewed/ replaced before expiry of Three Years. :)

Just like how we have bond papers like 100 rs, 1000Rs just like that even i need to take a six month validity, 1 year validity promissory notes according to the tenure we need to invest.

 

Also please advise what we can do if the financier files an Insolvency Petition.
