Jayachandra Reddy, J.1. The question that is referred to the Bench is whether the document on construction is to be held a promissory note on demand, or otherwise than on demand, or whether it is merely an agreement? 2. The plaintiff, a chit fund company, filed a suit for recovery of money on the basis of certain documents executed by the defendants. When the document in question which was executed by the defendants was sought to be marked, an objection was taken that it is a promissory note payable otherwise than on demand, and that it is not properly stamped and, therefore, becomes inadmissible in evidence. Learned Principal District Munsif, on a construction of the document, held that it amounts only to an agreement and that, therefore, it is admissible. As against that, the fourth defendant filed a civil revision petition and the learned single judge, after hearing the rival contentions, referred it to a Bench. The learned single judge felt that the observations made in Venkata Sub...
