      Under Section 13, a 'negotiable instrument'

      means:
      A Only a promissory note payable to bearer Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B Only a cheque drawn on a banker Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Any document of title to goods Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D A promissory note, bill of exchange or cheque payable either to order or to bearer Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E A bill of lading or warehouse receipt Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Section 13(1) defines a negotiable instrument as a promissory note, bill of exchange or cheque payable either to order or to bearer. The Explanations clarify when an instrument is payable to order or to bearer. Sub-section (2) allows a negotiable instrument to be made payable to two or more payees jointly, or in the alternative to one of several payees. Only these three instruments are negotiable instruments under the Act.
