Company Private Limited vs Nos.3 And 4.) on 31 December, 2021

The decision in Sampelly Styanarayana Rao Vs. Indian Renewable Energy Development Agency 45 CC No.25456/2009 SCC.H-25 Limited, the Hon'ble Apex court was dealing with the quash petition and hence the facts and circumstances of that case and this case are different. In this case it is clear from the evidence that on the date of presentation of cheques in question the loan became due and hence the entire arguments of the counsel for the accused is not helpful to the defence of the accused as the accused have utterly failed to prove their defence who themselves admitted the due repayment of bridge loan and issue of cheques.
