Bankers definitions
American Version:
by banking we mean the business of dealing
in credits, and by a bank we include every
person, firm or company having a place of
business where credits are opened by
deposits or collection of money or currency,
subject to be paid or remitted on cheque or
order, or money is advanced or loaned on
stocks, bonds, bullion, bills of exchange or
promissory notes or where these are received
for discount or sale
According to Negotiable
Instruments Act, 1881 (according
to Sec 3 (b) of Negotiable
Instrument Act) and BCO, 1962
Banker means a person transacting
the business of accepting for the
purpose of lending or investment, of
deposit of money form the public,

bank.
and the

after givingnotice or with loss of interest),
Customer defined
According to Heber L. Hart:
A customer is a person who has an account with
a banker. Hart says that a person is a customer
of a bank within the meaning of section 82 of the
Bills of Exchange Act, 1882, if he keeps either a
current or a deposit account with the bank, or , it
would seem if the bank systematically transacts
with him, or for him, any kind of banking business.
According to Sir John Paget:
To constitute a customer, there must be some
recognizable course of habit of dealing in the
nature of regular banking business
of sound mind
Not debarred (Disallow membership or entry) under any law
there must be an offer/ proposal
and acceptance of that offer/ proposal.
Legal relationship:
Intention to create legal relationship must exist,
in commercial transactions it is presumed that
such intention always exists. Social agreements
do not give rise to any legal relationship, hence
no rights or obligations arise/accrue from social
agreements, i.e. (Social agreements are not
enforceable at law)
Free consent
This is an important essential of a valid contract.
It requires that contract should be entered into
with free consent of parties.
Competent parties
Every person is competent to contract who is of the age of majority
according to law to which he is subject, and who is of sound mind, and
is not disqualified from contracting by any law to which he is subject.
Bailment
The definition of bailment as contained in section 148 is given
here under:
A bailment is the delivery of goods by one person to another
for some purpose, upon a contract that they shall, when the
purpose is accomplished, be returned or otherwise disposed of
according to the directions of the person delivering them. The
person delivering the goods is called the bailor.
The person to whom they are delivered is called the bailee
Explanation.
If a person already in possession of the goods of another
contracts to hold them as a bailee, he thereby becomes the
bailee, and the owner becomes the bailor, of such goods
although they may not have been delivered by way of bailment.
This relationship started when goldsmith used to keep the
belongings and valuables of public for safe custody with
themselves, although they started lending a part of that deposit
which was nothing but a breach of bailment.
Essentials of Bailment:
Contract--there is an underlying contract between the
bailor and bailee, there may be an explicit contract or it
may be an implied contract.
Specific purpose -the bailment of goods is always for
some specific purpose.
Delivery of goods--there must be delivery of movable
goods in a contract of bailment.
No change of ownership--in a contract of bailment, only
the possession of goods is transferred from bailor to the
bailee, whereas the bailor has all ownership rights over the
goods delivered.
Return of the goods delivered on accomplishment of
purpose--when the purpose for which the goods are
delivered is completed, the goods must be returned in the
original form or modified form as per instructions of the
bailor.
Types of Mortgages:
Registered Mortgage
Equitable Mortgage
Registered or Legal Mortgage
This is created through a formal
document called mortgage deed.
Mortgage deed is registered with the
Registrar of titles. It is comparatively
expensive as it involves stamp duty
and registration fee.
Equitable Mortgage:
This is created by deposit of title
deed ((law) a legaldocument proving
a person's right to property) by the
mortgagor.
Memorandum regarding deposit of
title deed is also signed by respective
parties.
Clear title of the mortgagor must be
ascertained by the mortgagee.
Pledge
It has been defined in section 172 of the Contract
Act which is given below:
"Pledge," "pawnor," and "pawnee" defined.
The bailment of goods as security for payment of a
debt or performance of a promise is called "pledge".
The bailor is in this case called the "pawnor." The
bailee is called the "pawnee."
The pledge has actual control of pledge
stocks/goods.
Pledge can sell pledged stocks by giving reasonable
notice to the borrower.
Before disposal pledge should publish the notice
through news papers etc.
