Under instructions from and on behalf of my client, [Sender name], resident of [address], I hereby serve you with the following legal notice:

1. That my client, on [date], advanced a sum of Rs. [Amount] to you as a friendly loan / advance, the receipt whereof you duly acknowledged in writing / before witnesses.
