I have the following queries regarding Promissory Note:

- Can we specify the period of payment like "payable within 15 days from the date of demand"?

- What is the best way to specify partial payments of principal & interest ?

- What safegauards to be taken against fraudulent modification by the holder (like modifying the amount, date of payment, payee etc)?

- Can it be made in duplicate on which both parties sign?

- Can it be printed on Company (Proprietorship) Letterhead or a Stamp Paper? What is the denomination of the stamp paper?

- Can a nominee for the payee be specified?
