The trial court erroneously invoked the presumption u/s 118 of the Negotiable Instruments Act, 1881, without considering the contradictions in the evidence of the plaintiff's witnesses and the surrounding circumstances. The presumption of consideration upon execution of a promissory note is rebuttable. The defendant's version, supported by circumstantial evidence and probabilities, rebutted the presumption.

The High Court allowed the appeal, setting aside the trial court's decree for payment, as the findings disregarded the impact of evidence on record.
