Bill of Exchange


Answer

  1. In case the acceptor refuses or not in a position to pay the bill then it is considered as the breach of the promise made at the time of the acceptance and is called dishonour of the bill.
  2. A Negotiable instrument means a promissory note, bill of exchange or cheque either to order or bearer.” Two negotiable instruments are bills of exchange and promissory notes.
  3. Noting of a Bill means getting the Bill notified and presented on its dishonour with the Notary Public.
  4. Maturity refers to the date on which a bill of exchange or promissory note becomes due for payment. In arriving at the maturity date 3 days, known as days of grace must be added to the date on which the period of credit expires.
    However, where the date of maturity is a public holiday e.g. all Sundays, 15 August etc., the instrument will become due on the preceding business day. But when an emergency holiday is declared under the Negotiable Instruments Act, 1881, which happens to be the date of maturity of a bill of exchange, then the date of maturity will be the next working day immediately after the holiday. Example: If a bill of Rs 2 lacs is drawn on 1stSept. 2008, payable after three months, then the due date or nominal date is 1stDec. 2008 while the bill is legally due on 4th Dec. 2008.
  5. The difference between a bill of exchange and promissory note are as follows:
    BasisBill of ExchangePromissory Note
    DrawerCreditor is the Drawer.Debtor is the Drawer.
    Order or Promise and PartiesIt contains an order to make payment. There can be three parties to it viz. the drawer, the drawer and the payee.It contains a promise to make payment. There are only two parties to it viz. the drawer and the payee.
    Acceptancet requires acceptance by the drawee or someone else on his behalf.It does not require any acceptance.
    PayeeDrawer and payee can be the same party.Drawer cannot be the payee of it.
    CopiesIn case of foreign bill, three copies are made, otherwise only one copy is prepared.Only one copy is prepared whether, it is foreign or local.
    LiabilityThe liability of the drawer arises only if the acceptor does not pay.The promisor has the primary liability to pay.
    StampsStamps are not required to be fixed, on the bills payable on demand. However, on the other bills, stamps are required to be fixed.Stamps have to be fixed in any case.
    NotingIn case of Dishonour, it is better to get it noted for non-payment.In the case of promissory note noting is necessary.

    Note: Renewal of a bill of exchange means substituting the old bill with a new bill. The purpose of this process is to get extension of time. In such cases, there is no need for getting the bill noted from Notary since the Drawee himself makes a request for cancellation of the bill. Drawer will charge interest for the extension of the time. The amount of interest may be paid in cash or included in the amount of the new bill. It is also possible that the new bill is not for the full amount since the Drawer may be partly paid at the time of renewal.
