Promissory note

(Querist) 19 May 2009 This query is : Resolved 
Dear experts,

I would like to know whether a promissory note should be executed on a stamp paper, if not then what is the procedure.

Also as an individual can I legally lend money to someone on a monthly interest and make a mention of the interest rate on the promissory note.

Also please guide me with format of a promissory note.

Dear Ria:

Their is no requirement of executing a Pronote on a Stamp paper, but, it should be adaequately stamped with revenue stamp. Below is the value of stamping required for different slabs of loan advanced:

(a)when payable on demand-

(i)when the amount or value does not exceed Rs.250; - Ten paise.


(ii)when the amount or value exceeds Rs.250 but does not exceed Rs.1000.- Fifteen paise.


(iii)in any other case;- Twenty-five paise.
