Presentment Placing of the negotiable instrument before a drawee is called presentment. Presentment may be for any of the following purposes: Presentment for acceptance Presentment for sight Presentment for payment

Presentment for Acceptance Among the negotiable instruments it is only a bill of exchange which has to be presented for acceptance. But it is not necessary to present every bill of exchange for acceptance. Those bills which are payable on demand need not be presented for acceptance. But in the case of following bills, the presentment is necessary: Where the bill of exchange is payable after sight it must be presented to the drawee for acceptance to fix the due date of the bill. Where there is an express stipulation in the bill that it shall be presented for acceptance before it is presented for payment. Where it is not necessary to present a bill of exchange for acceptance: It provides additional security to the bill by getting acceptor’s signature on the bill. It also provide immediate right to hold the prior parties liable for non acceptance.

How acceptance is made? In order to make drawee liable, it is necessary that he should give his assent by signing on the face of the bill. It is immaterial that he may or may not write the word “accepted”. Oral acceptance is no acceptance. Essentials of a valid acceptance: It must be given in writing. It must be signed by the drawee or his authorize agent. It must appear on the face of the bill of exchange. It should be presented for acceptance on specified time. If no time is specified it should be presented within a reasonable time. It should be presented for acceptance at a specified place. If no such place is specified, it should be presented at the business place or residence of the drawee.

Modes of acceptance General or absolute acceptance- Where the drawee of a bill of exchange gives his acceptance without any condition, it is said to be a general or absolute acceptance. It is sufficient on the part of the drawee that he puts his signature on the face of the bill and he need not write the word “accepted”. Qualified acceptance- Where the drawee of the bill of exchange adds and any condition while accepting it, it is said to be a qualified acceptance. If the holder refuses to take qualified acceptance he may treat the bill as dishonored. Where the holder accepts the qualified acceptance all parties shall stand discharged, if there consent was not taken on the qualified acceptance.

Who can make a valid presentment? The drawee of the bill and any other person entitle to demand acceptance can present a bill for acceptance. To whom presentment can be made? A bill of exchange can be presented for acceptance to the followings: The drawee of the bill. The drawee in case of need. All the drawees where there are more than one drawee. The legal representative of a deceased drawee. The Official Receiver or Official Assignee of an insolvent drawee. The authorized agent of a drawee. The acceptor for honor.

Time for presentment When a bill of exchange is drawn, it should be presented for acceptance: When the time is specified within that specified time. When the time is not specified within a reasonable time. When the presentment is not necessary, any time before payment. Place for presentment When a bill of exchange is drawn, it must be presented for acceptance at a place: When the place is specified, at that specified place. When the place is not specified, at drawees place of business or residence.

Presentment for acceptance when excused: Where presentment is excused, the bill is deemed to be dishonored for non acceptance. When the drawee is a fictitious person or one in capable of contracting. When he cannot after a reasonable search be found. Where though the presentment is irregular, acceptance has been refused on some other ground. Where the drawee is dead or insolvent, the bill may not be presented for acceptance to his legal representative or the official assignee as the case may be.

Acceptance for honor A bill of exchange can be accepted only by person or persons on whom it is drawn. An acceptance for honor is a peculiar kind of acceptance which is allowed when the original drawee of a bill refuses to give a better security when demanded by a notary public. Any person who is not liable on the bill can accept to save the credit of some or all of the parties to a bill. Even a stranger can undertake such an acceptance. Essentials of a valid acceptance for honor Such an acceptance must be made after noting or protesting and in no case before it. It must be made with the consent of the holder. It can be made only by the person who is not liable on the bill. It must be for the honor of any party liable on the bill. It must be made by a writing on the bill and for the whole amount for which the bill is drawn. It must be signed by the acceptor of honor. It must be made before the bill is overdue.

PRESENTMENT FOR SIGHT In the case of BJP after sight, Presentment for acceptance is essential before PAYMENT. But in the case of promissory notes, no acceptance is required.
