Re: Hand loan

You can recover the money owed to you. but the declaration you speak of will not be as conclusive. The simplest way for you to recover the money would be to deposit the cheque and in case it bounces, you may proceed with a complaint under the Negotiable Instruments Act. It will take at least a year of two to get the money back unless the debtor, by fear of a criminal case, agrees to settle the debt earlier. His statement along with a bounced cheque will be enough evidence on your part to be entitled to the recovery.

Re: Hand loan

You can have the blank cheque filled up with date and amount due to you and present it for collection. If it bounces, you will have to proceed under Sec.138 N.I.Act. If out of fear of the criminal prosecution, he pays, it is well and good. If he contests the genuiness of the cheque, it will take years to have a finding on the debt. One cannot predict the time frame. The letter he has given will be a supporting evidence, if he disputes the debt. Consult a local lawyer and proceed.
