Without having license lent money is not a big ground to the accused.. You can take the defence that you gave the money for friendship and believe on that person's earlier days..

If the complainant is not a money lender by profession, he need not to have any license.
In this case there "no license" is not a good defense. Try with some other defense.

It is correct that the Money Landing Act has adverse effect on the 138 proceedings but at the same time the question is of legally payable debt. What is the amount for which the alleged cheqe was handed over and manner of the disbursement of the same whether through bank or cash.

As the above satated if the amount of the alleged loan is more than 20000/- and that also in the cash form then it would be difficult to the complianant to prove the legally payable debts as the Hon'ble Supreme Court has laid down the law n respect way back in the year 2008. The limit provided by the Apex COurt has made it madatory that the payment of more than 20000/- rupees plea of the complinant as frendly loan as happened generally goes. It should be bank transction and the sai amount be paid through it.

No doubt mr Guruv is very rude in counter querry and must show proper respect if you want the proper inputs.
Regarding querry every due has to be legal dues so without money lending permission from proper authorities the case will be dismissed.
There are no of case laws in this matter.
